LWRC SIX8 A5 Rifle, 6.8mm SPC, 16-Inch, ODG

The LWRC SIX8 A5 in 6.8mm SPC (brand part no. SIX8A5UODG16) was built around a magazine problem: 6.8 SPC rifles have long struggled with reliable feeding, so LWRC partnered with Magpul to design the first purpose-built polymer 6.8 magazine. LWRC chambers this 16-inch-barreled rifle in 6.8mm SPC to bridge the gap in lethality between 5.56 NATO and 7.62 NATO, using a heavier projectile for more impact energy at all effective ranges. It ships with LWRC Skirmish back-up sights and one 30-round SIX8 PMAG, finished in olive drab green. Among AR rifles, the SIX8 A5 suits shooters who want more stopping power than 5.56 without stepping up to a full .308 platform.
