INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the LWRCI Rapid Engagement Precision
Rie (R.E.P.R.). LWRCI’s goal with the R.E.P.R. was to design and
deliver a self-loading rie that is more reliable, user friendly, and has
accuracy comparable to a bolt-action sniper rie.
R.E.P.R. is loosely based on the proven Stoner AR architecture of
modular upper and lower receiver groups. Rapidly interchangeable
Upper Receiver Groups from the short R.E.P.R. 12 (12.7” barrel) to the
R.E.P.R. 20 (20” barrel) allow operators to recongure their R.E.P.R.s to
meet and dominate evolving tactical situations.
Many of the excellent ergonomics associated with the AR platform
are retained. One exception is the side charging handle. The R.E.P.R.
employs a left-side non-reciprocating charging handle with an
integrated forward assist. This has the advantage of enabling the user
to operate the action while maintaining cheek weld and keeping
eyes on target. The location also allows for greater mechanical
leverage during manipulation. Another benet of eliminating the
dorsal charging handle is a tighter t between the stern of the upper
and lower receivers that alleviates gas blowback into the user’s eyes
when employing the weapon with a suppressor.
Our R.E.P.R. ries feature an adjustable gas system. Four positions
(O-O, S-Suppressed, N-Normal, and A-Adverse) allow for optimum
performance in any situation.
Barrel blanks for the R.E.P.R. ries are cold-rotary hammer forged
on a high-precision mandrel to produce match-grade polygonal
ried blanks which are extremely consistent with outstanding bore
surfaces. The blanks are then machined with proles that maximize
accuracy and minimize the eects of barrel whip and harmonics.
The muzzle has a target crown concentric to the bore to further
