As long as I'm here... Can't wait to fire one of the coolest rifles on the market, the LWRC Personal Defense Weapon (PDW)...
American Rifleman Editor-in-Chief was on site of LWRC International’s factory headquarters located in Cambridge, Maryland, on the state's historic Eastern Shore. Manufacturing facilities occupy more than 250,000 square feet, housing more than 50 state-of-the-art CNC machine centers, laser cutting machines, screw machines, robotic welding and mil-spec painting. LWRC was founded to pursue the development of a short-stroke, gas-piston-operated version of the AR15/M16/M4 family of rifles. The result is the company’s family of M6 rifles and carbines.
