RECCE LMG Review

[@redrighthandllc]

Great Video Guys! That RECCE LMG upper is the original upper and after this video its almost to 14K rounds fired on it!

[@warrenharrison9490]

😮

[@usnclark]

.... didn't he say it was the nitride barrel too? Deng 😮

[@redrighthandllc]

@@usnclark Yes that demo upper was equipped with the nitride barrel when this was filmed. We now offer both Chrome-Lined and Nitride options!

[@usnclark]

@redrighthandllc ordered a chrome lined tonight! Can't wait- but I'll have to 😅

[@SmokesKwazukii]

The AUG platform would work really well in it’s ‘automatic rifle’ configuration (long barrel, bipod) with the barrel being so easy to change quickly it seems perfect. Not sure how feasible an frt or binary is however.

[@GMRVC1]

Heard a lot of Aussies complain about the reliability of the AUG after they made it the standard individual weapon of the military. Availability of parts in N America for the AUG vs an AR variant LMG would be a major issue unless were talking about a range toy.

[@gamerbg294]

Most automatic rifles do not have a quick change barrel system, as it adds weight and complexity, and their role does not require such capability, as a good heavy barrel usually does the job.

[@bryanfaulkenburg462]

I am torn between this upper and a Klien Machining AR-RPK upper. I'd really like a mash up of both of them .

[@redrighthandllc]

Klien Machining / Small Team Supply makes an excellent product too! And just maybe one day, we could see a hybrid ;)

[@warrenharrison9490]

Those are 24" I believe. Definitely been looking at them since brent0331 did a video.

[@desertpinoy5616]

Klein machining 24 inch bull barrel with bipod, red right hands H.M.S system with whatever gas piston system you want and a good Quad Rail. I think that’ll be a good combo

[@philliplopez1501]

FWIW... would like to see someone throw some tracers through this heavy system in-conjunction-with a rifle team. This would go a long way towards showing the value-added through combined fires. It might inspire a few members of the community to up thier security capabilities.

[@EverydayCitizensTactical]

Well since you mention it, we did use tracers during the night shoot while testing!

[@GMRVC1]

Good to see folks thinking about this issue as realistically, the majority of citizens are constrained on purchasing ($$$$) and owning (ATF) a SAW or FN 249. Considered a DDM4V7 Pro for the same purpose. 18" DD CHF S2W barrel and you could just put some gloves on for the heat mitigation. I'm not gun scientist but it seems that the adjustable gas block is a point of failure and the quad rail adds unnecessary weight you wont need if you're not using a laser aiming system. Also, 18" seems to be a better compromise considering you would want it to be a dual purpose DMR/ LMG rifle that excels in accuracy in its DMR role and reliability in its LMG role and is maneuverable as possible indoors.

[@redrighthandllc]

We have a video on the Heat Mitigation System and deep dive the design of the upper on our youtube, where we cover all the barrel and gas system. This explains a lot and will answer your design questions.

[@GMRVC1]

@@redrighthandllc Learned a lot from this one -- Ty

[@danielmattera4298]

Awesome review! Sounds like an awesome piece of kit!

[@woodsrunnersepa]

Wish I could have gotten this as my first rifle a few years ago lol😢 will there be say a 16 inch or even a 14.5 inch, also do I need to use their specific bcg and charging handle (just hoping to save some $)

[@CatsandDogs-qn3ij]

Excellent series of videos. Have you looked at building, developing, a system to use the M122 tripod with your LSW build? Or other tripod systems, current military light weight tripod, hog saddle, MG42 tripods, etc.

[@redrighthandllc]

That be a fun concept to play with for sure.

[@GMRVC1]

Seems like a lot of added weight for a rifle that is already a compromise in its conception.

[@redrighthandllc]

@@GMRVC1 How so? Curious to hear why you think that.

[@GMRVC1]

@@redrighthandllcIm not an expert and respect those that are "in the arena" making ideas reality and IMHO this is an awesome concept. That being said, if the mission is full time light machine gun we should go 20"+ barrel, carry handle, and M60 bipod. No sacrafice for weight in favor of reliability and capability of extended strings of fire -- like the RPK. But if the mission is dual purpose DMR & super-lite MG I think we should consider making weight saving compromises where possible and consider the ability to move indoors. 18" HBAR or S2W barrel, No carry handle, bipod attached to free float handguard. These qualities will make the rifle accurate as possible and easier to maneuver as a DMR/ individual marksman rifle but still have the necessary capabilities to employ it in its secondary role as an super-lite MG. Just my 2 cents...love to hear a rebuttal from the manufacturer/ firearms engineer Thanks

[@CatsandDogs-qn3ij]

RRH upper and rifle in the video is designed for sustained fire. The type of fire used to suppress a target must be sustained as your element maneuvers on a target. A tripod has greater stability than a bipod. Tripod mounted arms have a tighter beaten zone. The RRH upper rifle is ideal for a support by fire position ICW a tripod. It appears that RRH is attempting to fill the nich of a belt fed LMG for civilian use. A 20" RRH upper used on a tripod would increase the maximum effective range to about 1,100 meters. Using M855 and a suitable magnified optic. Having a spotter at ranges greater than 400 meters will greatly assist in accuracy and target acquisition. Putting the RRH upper and tripod combo with a spotter giving the system near the effectiveness of a MMG in 7.62. Near, but not as lethal as an RPK/RPD/M240/M60/etc. With ammunition interchangeability with other team members. Weight of the RRH rifle would be inline with an RPK. Lighter than an M249.@@GMRVC1

[@save2a4all]

I think the FightLite Industries MCR Belt Fed AR-15/M16 Upper Receiver would be a better upgrade 😁

[@CatsandDogs-qn3ij]

Maybe, but the price of entry is high for the Fightlite MCR. $7,000 for just the upper receiver. You will need additional MCR barrel to get maximum benefit of the MCRlengths

[@CatsandDogs-qn3ij]

Hello Save, do you have experience with the MCR? Please share your knowledge.

[@cm-pr2ys]

But see, that's when you want to turn an automatic rifle into a Light Assault Machine Gun- possibly the lightest of all the LAMG's. This AR upper from RRH is simply an improvement to the AR. Therefore, you'd retain the capabilities of a rifle that an LAMG/ LMG upper doesn't have. It's also easier than an LMG to operate, less intense logistically, and should you ever need it, the outline of the RRH AR blends into everyone else's rifle under observation.

[@Wgwta21]

For one it cost entirely to much….2 it’s a proprietary system meaning in shtf it will break and now you’re down the weapon because you can’t source parts….3 even though it belt fed is cool, Where would you get the links in a SHTF scenario? Yeah you could still use regular mags but again when it breaks then what?

[@robertdole5391]

The issue is the linked ammo. Not a lot of that floating around.

[@xforce708]

I like it. Did you shoot for accuracy at distance too? I’d like to think of it’s dual purpose.

[@redrighthandllc]

It's still a free floated system, and with match ammo it's very capable for more "precision" work. Our uppers can "Duel role" so to speak.

[@EverydayCitizensTactical]

We shot it up to 300 yards on steel with general 55gr with ease! I am more than confident you can take it further without issue.

[@xforce708]

@@EverydayCitizensTactical I’d love to see a video on accuracy out to distance please. As a citizen it appears to be the perfect combination. I’m thinking the heat dissipation is going to help it a lot too. Got me wanting one. 😎

[@wesleywilliams4989]

wouldnt the piston version be best for sustained fire?

[@TAVAAR7]

Theres just something about a well tuned 20" upper (both A5 or full rifle buffer system versions), even better if you're in a state that allows binary....or ya know, if we ever get our full rights back and the only gun law is the 2nd Ammendment.

[@tristar-tinker_3706]

With the lower what springs buffers and triggers did you try? Curious to see if I can get away with using one I have or if I need a more dedicated lower.

[@aarontactical]

What lower receiver are you using for that upper

[@EverydayCitizensTactical]

Aero precision lower frame and parks kit, with a Franklin Armory Binary, upgraded buffer tube and spring with some Magpul furniture

[@joeraza7448]

So does it come with a binary trigger?

[@EverydayCitizensTactical]

Red Right Hand sells upper receiver groups. You build out your lower receiver to your own specifications.

[@trenchdiggaa]

Hey guys welcome back to stealth support class

[@semperfi6512]

good stuff

[@jackwilkinson8178]

I’m not familiar with the trigger you mentioned. Can you expound please?

[@EverydayCitizensTactical]

The Franklin Armory Binary Trigger is what we used in this video. 1 round on trigger pull, one round on trigger release

what bipod and mount is that

Unfortunately it will not

GG&G bipod and it was great! Good stability, easy to deploy and adjustable.

[@jonewald2]

@@EverydayCitizensTactical What model GG&G?

[@redrighthandllc]

@@jonewald2 Quick Detach XDS Heavy Duty We chose it for the front end weight of our Uppers when kitted out fully with Optics, Ammo, and in our case, Silencers. Often the builds push the 13Lb mark so its important to pick a bipod that can handle the weight of your final set up. Also make sure any bipod can go at least to 10.5" to clean most D-60s or Surefire 60s etc. GGG-AZ offers some excellent bipods and they often fly under the radar of the market yet supply a lot of our armed forces with these bipods. Solid product, we highly recommend them.
