L129A1 Thread

[Dewback]

Hello,

I'm looking into getting an L129A1 to go with my British MTP loadout. I already have an ICS L85, but wanted something a little diffetent that still goes along with the theme. 

I've done some digging, but can't seem to find anywhere that sells anything like it. I suppose I'd have to get the parts and build it myself. Perhaps an SR-25 base and go on from there?

Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Be worth digging around other forums and sites for threads, this has been discussed alot.

G&P have made the 556 version, this however (762 gun that we selected as the 129) does not exist in airsoft last I checked - http://www.lmtstore.com/complete-weapon-systems-firearms-guns/308-modular-weapon-system.html

All you can do is get some sort of AR-10/SR-25 variant, find a picatinny rail you think looks close and swap the parts around.

The real weapon is an SR-25... not sure what you mean by "can't find anything like it". It just has a different stock, hand guard, and other accessories you will find super hard to find (if you can at all) and will be crazy expensive to get right. Also I've searched the entire internet and there isn't a replica 6x48 acog, so you could drop a few grand on a real one if you want to be accurate

What about the Ares SR25 Carbine EFCS DMR?

I was referring to the ACOG when I mentioned couldn't finding anything like it (didn't word it right), but there's no way I'm spending a couple grand for the real deal. I'll just find a nice looking scope and use that instead. Something like this would look pretty good:

You know, that looks pretty darn good. Little pricey, though. Was hoping for something around £350 mark.

hmm yea im guessing if you look around you might get it cheaper. but with the new law coming in, being able to lock it to semi is pretty good.

Unless you're using SR-25 as a catch-all for every single AR variant in 762x51 then no the L129 isn't an SR-25.  The SR is 1 specific gun made by KAC (US Army designation is M110):

The L129 is made by Lewis Machine & Tool, there in the link I already posted.
