    Titan is a good LMT dealer. Congrats on the fine purchase.

    Yeah and now I find myself mentally debating the back up iron sight or red dot vs low power variable scope 30 cal. conundrum.

    MWS needs some nice glass, whether it's a 1-X or a 3-15x ish type optic is up to you.

    100%.

    I put a Leupy MK6 3-18 on my MR. Pretty happy with that optic on that platform.

    Irons only in that is a waste of capability.

    I've got a NF NXS 2.5-10x42 on mine and have been very satisfied with it. Covers pretty much all bases for what I do with my MWS.

    A few years back when AR-10's were scarce, I had a LMT build going and a Larue OBR 7.62 on back order. It took over a year for the Larue to come in. I had forgotten about that order. In the mean time, I picked up an excellent SCAR 20S that became available from an online dealer.

    Long story short, I ended up with 3 excellent AR-10's over time. They all shoot sub MOA. The LMT shoots closer to 1/2 MOA. They all function flawlessly. I can't bear to part with any of them.

    Pros and Cons of the three (my opinion):

    Larue 20" 7.62 OBR

    Pros:
    - Accurate
    - Reliable
    - Selectable gas block for suppressed shooting.

    Cons:
    - 100% Larue proprietary on every single part (even suppressor/muzzle device) and those parts are not available.
    - Not modular at the user level unless you have Larue proprietary armorers tools.
    - Oversize fluted chamber pretty much ruins brass for reloading.

    SCAR 20S

    Pros:
    - Accurate (even with chrome lined barrel) sub MOA.
    - Reliable. Shoots all varieties of 308/7.62 ammo
    - Selectable gas block for suppressed shooting. Currently running a common Surfire Warcomp and Surefire RC2 suppressor. Improves accuracy.
    - Modular at user level. Barrel changes are easy.

    Cons:
    - Proprietary parts but, readily available.

    LMT MARS MWS 7.62

    Pros:
    - Accurate (stainless steel barrel) near 1/2 MOA.
    - Reliable.
    - Currently running a common Surfire Warcomp and Surefire RC2 suppressor. Improves accuracy.
    - Modular at user level. Barrel changes are easy. I have 3 barrels including a 20" 6.5 Creedmoor.

    Cons:
    - Ammo must be suited for AR-10 service rifle platform.
    - No selectable gas block for suppressed shooting.
