LMT Manufactured MRP™ Weapon System firearms are reliable and safe to use when the firearm safety rules

are followed. There are a number of internal safety mechanisms within the internal mechanism of the firearm

which ensure that the firearm will not discharge unless the trigger of the firearm is pulled. NEVER RELY ON

MECHANICAL FEATURES ALONE. Only your safe gun-handling habits will ensure the safe use of your

firearm. This is your responsibility. That is one reason why it is important to never modify or alter your firearm.

Before you use your firearm, you should be fully familiar with its operations.

Here is a list of basic firearms terminology.

AMMUNITION – CENTERFIRE – Is described as ammunition which contains the primer in the center of the

base of the case. Among the most common centerfire firearm cartridges are the .204 Ruger, .223, 5.56 NATO,

.243, .260, 6.8 SPC, .308 Win, and 7.62 NATO.

BOLT – The mechanism that houses the firing pin, ejector and extractor.

CALIBER – The diameter of a bullet, designated in hundredths or thousandths of an inch (.223) or in

millimeters (5.56MM).

CHARGING HANDLE – This moves the bolt carrier group which cocks the firearm when preparing to fire or

allows access to the bolt and chamber to verify that the weapon is either loaded or clear of ammunition.

COMPENSATOR – This may reduce a portion of the recoil, depending on model and configuration applied to

the weapon as well as suppress muzzle flash.

HANDGUARD – This is a protective shield that covers the gas tube and the barrel keeping your hand from the

hot barrel.

LOWER RECEIVER – Lower part of the rifle containing the receiver, trigger and associated parts.

RIFLE – A weapon that can be fired from the shoulder.

SAFETY SELECTOR LEVER – This feature changes the trigger between the safe mode and the firing modes.

UPPER RECEIVER – The part of the receiver containing the barrel, sights, bolt and associated parts.

The operation of your firearms will be explained in greater detail in the pages that follow, as well as, a

broader description of key component parts.

RULES FOR SAFE GUN HANDLING

To safely and properly handle this firearm, you must understand that injury or death to you or others may

result from unsafe or careless use.

It must be kept in mind that while the general rules of safe gun handling always apply, circumstances or

conditions may exist that require additional precautions to be taken.

• Always keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction

• Treat every gun as if it were loaded

• Load your firearm only when ready to fire the weapon

• Keep the safety on until ready to fire

• Keep your finger off of and away from the trigger until you are going to shoot the weapon

• Move the safety from “Safe” to “Fire” only when ready to shoot

• Fire the weapon only when you are sure of your target and backstop

• Do not fire the weapon if unsure where the bullet will travel if the backstop is penetrated

• Always keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction

• Never rely on a mechanical safety as a replacement or substitute for safe gun handling

• Even if you have handled and or fired an autoloading firearm before; practice inserting and removing

an empty magazine to become accustomed to the weapon handling characteristics.

Always keep the barrel free of obstructions, dirt, mud, sand and other debris.

If you suspect that the barrel of the firearm may be obstructed, unload the firearm, examine the bore and

remove any obstruction and clean before reloading and firing the weapon. An obstructed barrel may burst,

destroying the firearm and seriously injuring the shooter and any bystanders.

When moving over, under or on any obstacle, always maintain control of the muzzle direction. Unload the

firearm if there is any chance that you might fall and or lose control of the muzzle direction.

To avoid an accidental discharge, always keep the chamber empty until ready to fire.

Guns, alcohol or drugs don’t mix. Shooting while your senses, judgment and or coordination are impaired may

cause serious injury or death to the shooter and or bystander.

THE FIREARM IS UNLOADED ONLY WHEN THE MAGAZINE IS REMOVED AND THE

CHAMBER IS EMPTY. TREAT EVERY FIREARM AS IF IT IS LOADED.

DO NOT HAND A LOADED FIREARM TO ANOTHER PERSON. UNLOAD IT FIRST TO PREVENT AN

ACCIDENTAL DISCHARGE.

When handing or transferring a firearm to another person or accepting a firearm from another person,

ALWAYS inspect the firearm; open the action and inspect the chamber to verify that the firearm is unloaded.

EVERY TIME

When removing a firearm from a case or sleeve, always open the action and inspect the chamber to verify it is

unloaded and not obstructed. EVERY TIME

Always point the gun in a safe direction when loading and unloading the firearm.

Always unload your firearm before cleaning.

There is no way to predict which direction bullets will travel or ricochet when fired at flat

ground surfaces or water. When present, always fire directly into a sufficient backstop.

Always wear eye and ear protection when using a firearm.

Discharging a firearm in a building, home or apartment always causes property damage,

injury and/or death. Centerfire firearm bullets can penetrate several floors and/or walls within a structure that

the firearm was discharged in and travel to undisclosed destinations. This can and/or will cause property

damage, injury and/or death.

Rev F www.lmtdefense.com Page

CAUTION !..

RULES FOR SAFE GUN HANDLING WHEN UTILIZING A SLING

• Use only slings that will adequately support the firearm and safely control the muzzles direction

• If a sling is to be used, unload the firearm and practice pulling it on and off, moving with the firearm on

foot, in a vehicle (if legal in your application) or using in various firing positions

• If a sling is to be used with a vest, packs, etc., unload the firearm and practice pulling it on and off,

moving with the firearm on foot, in a vehicle (If legal in your application) or using in various firing

positions

• Always unload a firearm when installing, adjusting or removing a sling or similar item

YOUR SAFETY RESPONSIBILITIES - SAFETY IS YOUR NUMBER ONE RESPONSIBILITY!

SAFE GUN HANDLING IS YOUR PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY AT ALL TIMES. Firearms are dangerous

and can cause serious injury or death if they are misused. Safety must be the prime consideration of anyone

who owns or handles firearms. Accidents are the result of violating the rules of safe gun handling and common

sense. Firearms safety training is available. Contact your dealer, law enforcement agency, local sportsman’s

club, etc. for availability.

At home, in the field, at the range, or anywhere, the first concern of every firearm owner should be safety.

Apply the following safety rules in every situation, with any kind of firearm. If you feel uncertain about any

operational aspects of your firearm, please contact Lewis Machine & Tool Co. customer service (309)

732.9527 before proceeding with its operation.

YOU MUST FOLLOW ALL OF THESE SAFETY RULES TO ENSURE THE SAFE USE OF

YOUR FIREARM. THE FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE BASIC FIREARM SAFETY RULES MAY RESULT IN

AN UNINTENDED DISCHARGE WHICH COULD CAUSE SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH TO

YOU OR OTHERS.

ALWAYS KEEP YOUR FIREARM POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION. Never point a firearm at anyone or

anything you do not intend to shoot regardless of whether or not it is loaded. This is particularly important

when loading, unloading, or field stripping the gun. ALWAYS control the direction of the firearm.

ALWAYS TREAT EVERY FIREARM AS IF IT IS LOADED AND WILL FIRE IF THE TRIGGER IS PULLED.

Do not take anyone’s word that the firearm is unloaded – always check for yourself. Never pass your firearm to

another person until the action is open and you visually check that it is unloaded. Keep your firearm unloaded

and safely stored when not in use.

NEVER PLACE YOUR FINGER INSIDE THE TRIGGER GUARD OR ON THE TRIGGER UNLESS YOU

INTEND TO FIRE THE WEAPON. Ensure that other objects not touch the trigger.

ALWAYS BE SURE OF YOUR TARGET AND WHAT IS BEYOND IT. Always be sure of where the bullet will

strike and shoot only where there is a safe back stop free of obstructions, water or other surfaces which can

cause ricochets. Do not fire into the sky.

NEVER CROSS OBSTACLES SUCH AS FENCES OR STREAMS WITH A LOADED FIREARM.

FIREARM SECURITY IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY. You must secure firearms safely from children and

unauthorized users. Your firearm should always be kept unloaded and locked when not in use. A lock can be

purchased from several sources for this purpose. Never assume that the use of this lock is sufficient to safely

secure your firearm. You must always evaluate your personal situation and employ the security system(s) that

meets your needs and prevents children and unauthorized users from gaining access to your firearm.

APPROPRIATE USE FOR YOUR FIREARM MEANS USING YOUR FIREARM FOR LEGAL PURPOSES.

It is your responsibility to ensure that you are in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations regarding

the use of your firearm.

NEVER RELY ON MECHANICAL FEATURES ALONE. Mechanical features may fail. Only your safe gun-

handling habits will ensure the safe use of your firearm. This is your responsibility.

ALWAYS SAFELY STORE AND SECURE YOUR FIREARM. Safe and secure storage of your firearm is one

of your most important responsibilities. It is a full-time responsibility. You must always secure your firearm and

ammunition separately so that they are not accessible to children and/or other unauthorized persons.

Rev F www.lmtdefense.com Page

NEVER KEEP AMMUNITION IN THE SAME LOCATION AS THE FIREARM. Store each in a separate and

secure place.

ALWAYS WEAR EYE AND EAR PROTECTORS THAT ARE SPECIFIED FOR FIREARM USE

EVERY TIME YOU DISCHARGE YOUR FIREARM. Make sure others in the vicinity of where you will be

shooting do so as well.

NEVER USE ALCOHOL OR DRUGS BEFORE OR WHILE SHOOTING. Do not use your firearm if you are on

any medication which impairs, even slightly, your mental or physical ability.

ALWAYS HAVE ADEQUATE VENTILATION. Discharging firearms, cleaning firearms, or handling ammunition

in poorly ventilated areas may result in exposure to lead and other substances known to cause birth defects,

reproductive harm, and other serious physical injury. Review the warnings and labels for all ammunition and

cleaning products carefully. Wash hands thoroughly after exposure.

BEFORE HANDLING ANY FIREARM, UNDERSTAND ITS OPERATION. Not all firearms are the same.

Familiarize yourself with the mechanical features of any firearm you intend to use. If you feel uncertain about

any operational aspects of your firearm, please contact Lewis Machine & Tool Co. customer service at (309)

732.9527 before proceeding with its operation.

NEVER ALLOW A FIREARM TO BE USED BY INDIVIDUALS WHO DO NOT UNDERSTAND ITS SAFE

OPERATION OR HAVE NOT READ THESE FIREARM SAFETY RULES.

ALWAYS USE THE CORRECT AMMUNITION FOR YOUR PARTICULAR FIREARM AS INDICATED BY THE

MARKING ON THE FIREARM.

NEVER USE NON-STANDARD, RELOADED OR “HAND-LOADED” AMMUNITION.

BE SURE ALL ACCESSORIES ARE COMPATIBLE WITH THE FIREARM AND THAT THE ACCESSORIES

DO NOT INTERFERE WITH SAFE OPERATION.

NEVER DISASSEMBLE YOUR FIREARM BEYOND THE FIELD STRIPPING PROCEDURE OUTLINED IN

THIS MANUAL. Improper disassembly or reassembly of your firearm may be dangerous and can lead to

serious injury or death.

NEVER MANIPULATE, ADJUST OR CHANGE ANY OF THE INTERNAL COMPONENTS OF YOUR

FIREARM. Improper manipulation of any internal component may affect the safety and reliability of your

firearm and may cause serious injury or death.

NEVER ALLOW ANY ALTERATION OR REPLACEMENT OF PARTS IN YOUR LEWIS MACHINE & TOOL

CO. FIREARM UNLESS PERFORMED BY A QUALIFIED GUNSMITH USING GENUINE LEWIS MACHINE &

TOOL CO. PARTS. If you do otherwise, improper functioning of your firearm may occur and serious injury or

death may result.

SAFE USE OF A FIREARM IS YOUR PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY AND THE FAILURE

TO FOLLOW ALL OF THESE BASIC SAFETY RULES MAY RESULT IN SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY OR

DEATH TO YOU OR OTHERS. You are the most important safety device when it comes to the use of your

firearm.

LEWIS MACHINE & TOOL CO. WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY PERSONAL INJURY, DEATH OR

PROPERTY DAMAGE THAT RESULTS FROM: (1) THE CRIMINAL OR NEGLIGENT USE OF THIS

FIREARM; (2) A DISREGARD OF THESE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS; (3) IMPROPER OR

CARELESS HANDLING OF THIS FIREARM; (4) THE USE OF A NON-STANDARD, DEFECTIVE,

IMPROPER OR RELOADED AMMUNITION; AND (5) IMPROPER OR NEGLIGENT MODIFICATIONS OR

REPAIRS TO THE FIREARM.

Rev F www.lmtdefense.com Page

MAINTENANCE BEFORE STORAGE

When storing, do not encase your firearm in anything that will attract or hold moisture, for example, leather or

heavy cloth. Also, do not store guns with a plug inserted in the barrel for this can be a contributing factor to

moisture accumulation. If your firearm is to be stored for an extended period, the bore, the chambers and

internal working mechanism should be oiled with a high quality lubricating oil or preservative intended for

firearms. The external working mechanisms, lower and upper receiver, and barrel should be coated with anti-

rust oil. Before using your firearm again, be sure to clean it. If wear is noted, do not use the firearm. Return it

to Lewis Machine & Tool Co. for service or have it checked by a qualified gunsmith.

SAFE STORAGE & TRANSPORTATION

FIREARMS ARE DANGEROUS WHEN USED AND STORED IMPROPERLY. THEY POSE

A RISK OF SERIOUS OR FATAL INJURIES. FIREARMS CAN BE ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS TO

CHILDREN WHEN THEY ARE STORED IN AN IRRESPONSIBLE AND UNSAFE MANNER. FOR YOUR

SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF OTHERS, IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT YOU KEEP YOUR FIREARM LOCKED

AND UNLOADED IN A SECURE PLACE. THE AMMUNITION SHOULD BE STORED IN A SEPARATE,

SECURE LOCATION WHEN IT IS NOT IN USE. SAFE AND SECURE STORAGE OF YOUR FIREARM IS

ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT RULES OF FIREARM SAFETY. YOUR FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE

RULES MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO YOU OR OTHERS.

ALWAYS SECURE YOUR FIREARM IN A MANNER THAT WILL PREVENT UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS.

Whenever your firearm is not in use, keep it unloaded and locked. Your safety and the safety of others require

that you always secure and store your firearm in a manner that will prevent unauthorized access. Never leave

a firearm unattended unless it is locked.

ALWAYS USE A LOCK TO SECURE YOUR FIREARM. BY PURCHASING THIS FIREARM YOU HAVE

ACCEPTED THE RESPONSIBILITY OF SAFELY SECURING THE FIREARM AT ALL TIMES AND

PREVENTING ITS UNAUTHORIZED USE. Never assume that the use of a lock alone is sufficient to safely

secure your firearm. It is your personal responsibility to select and use whatever measures or practices that

will enable you to be absolutely certain that your firearm is secure at all times. A lock, when properly used, can

be an effective tool in preventing unauthorized access to your firearm. There are alternative locks and safe

storage containers available in the marketplace which may also be appropriate for your particular needs.

Consult your local weapon dealer, hardware store, or local police department for guidance on the variety of

other safe storage devices or practices which may be appropriate for your particular needs. Please read and

follow the instructions provided with the lock and or storage device that you have purchased to secure your

firearm.

NEVER LOCK A LOADED FIREARM AND NEVER LOAD A LOCKED FIREARM!!

NEVER ASSUME THAT A “HIDING” PLACE IS A SECURE STORAGE METHOD. Others may be aware of

your storage location or come upon it by chance. It is your personal responsibility to use common sense when

storing your firearm and ammunition and to always make sure they are not accessible to children or other

unauthorized persons.

NEVER TRANSPORT A LOADED FIREARM. When transporting your firearm, be sure it is unloaded and

locked. Safe and secure transportation of your firearm is your responsibility.

ALWAYS FOLLOW THE LAW! Many jurisdictions have laws that make it a crime to keep a firearm unlocked

and in an area accessible to children or others. You must be familiar with all local, state, and federal laws

regarding the safe storage and transportation of your firearm. Failure to know and follow the law may result in

unauthorized access or use of your firearm by another. Obey all laws relating to the storage and transportation

of firearms. Your local police department or weapon dealer can furnish you with available information on

storing and/or transporting a firearm safely and legally.

YOUR FIREARM IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY. You must prevent your firearm from being stolen or from

being used by untrained or unqualified individuals. Keep it locked, unloaded and secured when not in use.

Rev F www.lmtdefense.com Page

BEWARE OF DANGEROUS CONDITIONS

• Be sure Cam Pin is installed in the Bolt Group. If it isn’t, your firearm can still fire and COULD

MALFUNCTION, CAUSING PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.

• When using a Blank Firing Attachment, never fire anything except blank ammunition! For your

safety, we recommend the visible, LMT™ blank firing system that includes a special magazine, barrel

and barrel bullet trap.

• If your firearm stops firing with a live round in the chamber of a hot barrel (a misfire). REMOVE THE

ROUND FAST! However, if you cannot remove it within 10 seconds, remove magazine and wait 15

minutes with the firearm pointing in a safe direction! This way you won’t be hurt by a possible

round “cooking off” (i.e. the round detonating just from the heat of the barrel). Keep your face away

from the ejection port while clearing a hot chamber.

• If your bolt fails to unlock, and you try to free it by tapping the buttstock on the ground while pulling on

the charging handle, keep yourself clear of the Muzzle and the Firearm pointed down range.

• If there is water in the barrel, do not fire the firearm. IT COULD MALFUNCTION CAUSING

PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.

• Pull the charging handle to the rear to break the seal to ensure the water will run off from the chamber

through the ejection port area.

• If a noticeable difference in sound or recoil is experienced, STOP FIRING! Either condition could

indicate an incomplete powder burn and or bullet or other obstruction stuck in the bore of the barrel.

• If a bullet is lodged and can be removed by pushing it out with a cleaning rod, clean any unburned

powder grains from the bore, chamber, and mechanism before resuming shooting. If the bullet cannot

be dislodged by firmly tapping it with a cleaning rod, take the weapon to a qualified gunsmith or

armourer and have the obstruction removed.

• NOTE: With the Bolt Carrier Assembly locked to the rear, or in its forward position, if the firearm is

dropped or jarred with a loaded magazine in place, a live round could be chambered.

ALWAYS PRACTICE SAFE GUN HANDLING.

Use only serviceable and authorized ammunition

Inspect ammunition for defects prior to loading magazines

LOADING THE MAGAZINE

• Load magazines one round at a time.

• Place each round on top of follower, between magazine lips and push down and through until round

rotates under feed lips. Never load more than the amount of rounds the magazine is designed for.

• As rounds are pushed down, slide them to the rear of the magazine.

UNLOADING THE MAGAZINE

• Strip one round at a time out of the magazine by pushing on the cartridge rim. Do not bend or deform

magazine lips when stripping rounds from magazine.

• An alternative method is to push the top round slightly forward and depress the base of the second

round under it. This relieves the pressure on the top round, making it easier to remove from the

magazine.

Rev F www.lmtdefense.com Page

LOADING RIFLE AND FIRING

• THIS FIREARM MAY DISCHARGE ACCIDENTALLY WHEN A ROUND IS FED

INTO THE CHAMBER. IF IT IS DROPPED OR RECEIVES A BLOW TO THE MUZZLE OR FRONT

OF THE GUN. (This can occur regardless of the position of the hammer or any of the various

safety devices.) Therefore, extra care and strict adherence to these instructions by the firearm

user is mandatory for minimizing the risk of accidents.

• ALWAYS READ AND UNDERSTAND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE LOADING AND FIRING

YOUR FIREARM.

• Point rifle in a safe direction. Pull the bolt fully to the rear with the charging handle and lock the bolt to

the rear with bolt catch.

• Push the charging handle forward until it locks in place.

• Place safety in “SAFE” position and visually check chamber and receiver area.

• Insert loaded magazine well until the magazine catch engages and positively retains magazine. Slap

bottom of magazine with palm of hand to be sure.

• Push on upper portion of bolt catch to release bolt. Bolt will spring forward into battery and load first

round into chamber.

Rev F www.lmtdefense.com Page

Fire Selection – Semi Automatic Fire Selection – Full Automatic

(Optional)

- Rifle is now loaded. Keep it pointed in a safe direction

If you rotate the safety from “SAFE” to “FIRE” position…

THE RIFLE WILL FIRE WHEN YOU PULL THE TRIGGER

• THIS IS AN AUTOLOADING FIREARM AND IS IMMEDIATELY LOADED AND

READY TO FIRE AGAIN AFTER EACH SHOT UNTIL THE CHAMBER IS EMPTY.

• If your firearm stops firing with a live round in the chamber of a hot barrel (a

misfire). REMOVE THE ROUND FAST! However, if you cannot remove it within 10 seconds,

remove the magazine and wait 15 minutes with the firearm pointing in a safe direction! This

way you won’t be hurt by a possible round “cooking off” (i.e. the round detonating just from

the heat of the barrel). Keep your face away from the ejection port while clearing a hot

chamber. If firing pin indent on primer is light, misaligned or nonexistent, have your firearm

examined by a competent gunsmith or armourer. If the firing pin indent on primer appears

normal (in comparison with previously fired rounds) assume faulty ammunition; segregate

misfired rounds from other live ammunition and empty cases; reload firearm and carry on

firing.

UNLOADING RIFLE

• ALWAYS UNLOAD YOUR FIREARM IMMEDIATELY AFTER USE AND PRIOR TO

CLEANING AND STORAGE TO MINIMIZE THE RISK OF ACCIDENTAL DISCHARGE.

• ALWAYS READ AND UNDERSTAND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE UNLOADING YOUR

FIREARM.

• Point rifle in safe direction.

Rev F www.lmtdefense.com Page

• Rotate safety to the “SAFE” position if possible. (If hammer is not cocked, safety cannot be rotated to

“SAFE”.)

• Remove magazine by pushing in magazine catch button while pulling magazine from receiver.

• Pull charging handle fully to the rear and lock bolt to the rear by pressing on the lower portion of the

bolt catch. If not done so already place safety on “SAFE”.

• Inspect chamber and inside of receiver areas for cartridge or brass. Remove any round and other

debris. Let the bolt go forward and close the dust cover.

PREPARATION FOR FIRING

THE FAILURE TO FOLLOW FIREARM SAFETY REQUIREMENTS WILL CAUSE

SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH TO YOU OR OTHERS. ALWAYS TREAT ALL FIREARMS AS IF

THEY WERE LOADED. ALWAYS BE SURE THAT THE ACTION OF FIREARMS ARE OPEN, THAT

CHAMBERS ARE CLEAR OF CARTRIDGES, MAGAZINES ARE REMOVED, AND THAT FIREARMS ARE

POINTING IN A SAFE DIRECTION.

ALWAYS WEAR ADEQUATE AND PROPER EAR PROTECTORS SPECIFIED FOR FIREARM USE

TO PREVENT PERMANENT DAMAGE TO YOUR HEARING. Make sure others who are nearby are wearing

ear protection as well.

Rev F www.lmtdefense.com Page

ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GLASSES SPECIFIED FOR FIREARMS USE, WHETHER INDOORS OR

OUT. Safety glasses should protect your eyes from the firing flash and particles associated with the discharge

of ammunition. Failure to do so creates a risk of personal injury from particle or debris spitting or ricochets.

ALWAYS BE ALERT AND ALWAYS FOLLOW THE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS OF THE RANGE OFFICER.

NEVER SHOOT IF YOU ARE TIRED, COLD OR IMPAIRED IN ANY WAY.

ALWAYS BE AWARE OF OTHER PEOPLE AND MOVABLE OBJECTS IN YOUR SURROUNDING AREA SO

THAT THEY DO NOT ACCIDENTALLY WALK INTO THE LINE OF FIRE.

THE SHOOTER (AND ALL OTHERS IN THE SHOOTING AREA) MUST ALWAYS BE IN A POSITION THAT

IS OUT OF THE LINE OF FIRE AND ARE NOT WITHIN AN AREA WHERE THEY MAY BE STRUCK BY

RICOCHETS, PARTICLE SPITTING FROM A FIREARM, OR BY EJECTED CASES FROM OTHER TYPES

OF FIREARMS.

NEVER USE ALCOHOL OR DRUGS BEFORE OR WHILE SHOOTING.

SIGHT ADJUSTMENT

The MRP™ Weapon System uses a Detachable Iron Sight System (DISS). Some models are equipped with a

fixed adjustable front sight and Tactical Rear Sight. These systems do not allow the removal of the Adjustable

Front Sight.

TACTICAL FRONT SIGHT – The front site post is moved up or down when zeroing the rear sight. Adjustments

can be made by twisting the post with the sight adjustment tool or by depressing the indent pin with a bullet tip

and tuning the post. Once the rear sight is zeroed, the front sight post should not be moved.

TACTICAL REAR SIGHT – The sight has a dual aperture. Use the larger aperture for normal range firing. Use

the small aperture for longer range firing. Windage adjustments can be made with rear sight. Adjustments can

be made by turning the windage knob.

Rev F www.lmtdefense.com Page

AMMUNITION

All Lewis Machine & Tool Co. products are designed and built to specifications to shoot standard factory

commercially available NATO compliant ammunition. The specifications for standard commercially available

NATO compliant ammunition include harder primers to withstand the slight indentation from the firing pin when

the bolt chambers a cartridge. This slight indentation is normal. The use of civilian ammunition with more

sensitive primers or hand-loads with commercial primers and/or improperly seated primers increases the risk

of primer detonation when the bolt slams forward, firing the firearm. Every shooter should use extreme caution

when loading a firearm. All Lewis Machine & Tool rifles have military specification chambers. All 5.56mm

chamber will fire commercial .223 Rem ammunition as well as the LM308MWS is chambered for 7.62x51mm

and will also fire the commercial .308 Win cartridge. All 6.8mm SPC chambers are manufactured to SAAMI

specification (Spec 1 chamber).

Use only recently made high quality, original, factory-manufactured or factory remanufactured NATO compliant

ammunition of the caliber for which your firearm is chambered. The proper caliber is permanently engraved on

your firearm barrel; never attempt to use ammunition of any other caliber. Old ammunition may deteriorate

from age causing it to be dangerous. Do not use cartridges that are dirty, wet, corroded, bent or damaged. Do

not oil cartridges. Do not spray aerosol-type lubricants, preservatives or cleaners directly onto cartridges or

where excess spray may flow into contact with cartridges. Lubricant or other foreign matter on cartridges can

cause potentially dangerous ammunition malfunctions. Always store ammunition in a cool dry place to prevent

contamination and/or deterioration of the primer and powder. Use only ammunition of the caliber for which

your firearm is chambered and manufactured for. Defective ammunition can create excessive pressures

resulting in an explosion and cause injury or death to you and/or those nearby. YOU MUST ASSUME

RESPONSIBILITY FOR USING PROPER AND SAFE AMMUNITION. Keep ammunition separated by caliber

at home and on the range. This can be done by keeping it in the original box. Throw ammunition away that has

been dented or deformed, shows signs of wear such as split or cracked necks, cratered or flattened primers,

or punctured cases. If you have any reason to question the safety of any cartridge does not use it and safely

discard it immediately. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES USE OLD OR RELOADED AMMUNITION

PURCHASED AT GUN SHOWS, ESTATE SALES OR AUCTIONS.

The use of reloaded, hand-loaded or other non-standard ammunition voids all warranties. Reloading is a

science and improperly loaded ammunition can be extremely dangerous. Severe damage to the firearm and

serious injury to the shooter or to others may result. Reloaded ammunition that may function in a bolt or slide

action firearm may not properly function and may even explode in a semi-automatic weapon. The risk of a

mishap is reduced by using current clean ammunition that complies with the North Atlantic Treaty Organization

(NATO) specifications.

FIREARMS MAY BE SEVERELY DAMAGED AND SERIOUS INJURY TO THE SHOOTER

OR TO OTHERS MAY RESULT FROM ANY CONDITION CAUSING EXCESSIVE PRESSURE INSIDE THE

CHAMBER OR BARREL DURING FIRING. EXCESSIVE PRESSURE CAN BE CAUSED BY

OBSTRUCTIONS IN THE BARREL, PROPELLANT POWDER OVERLOADS, OR BY THE USE OF

INCORRECT CARTRIDGES OR DEFECTIVELY ASSEMBLED CARTRIDGES. IN ADDITION, THE USE OF

DIRTY, CORRODED, OR DAMAGED CARTRIDGES MAY CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY FROM THE

SUDDEN ESCAPE OF HIGH-PRESSURE PROPELLANT GAS WITHIN THE FIREARM'S MECHANISM.

Immediately stop shooting and check the barrel for an obstruction whenever:

• You have difficulty in, or feel unusual resistance in, chambering a cartridge

• A cartridge misfires (does not go off)

• The mechanism fails to extract a fired cartridge case

• Unburned grains of propellant powder are discovered spilled in the mechanism

• A shot sounds weak or abnormal. In such cases it is possible that a bullet is lodged part way down

the barrel. Firing a subsequent bullet into the obstructed barrel can destroy the firearm and cause

serious injury to the shooter and to bystanders.

Bullets can become lodged in the barrel:

• If the cartridge has been improperly loaded without propellant powder, or if the powder fails to ignite.

(Ignition of the cartridge primer alone will push the bullet out of the cartridge case, but usually does not

generate sufficient energy to expel the bullet completely from the barrel.)

• If the bullet is not properly seated tightly in the cartridge case. When such a cartridge is extracted

from the chamber without being fired, the bullet may be left behind in the bore at the point where the

rifling begins. Subsequent chambering of another cartridge may push the first bullet further into the

bore.

Rev F www.lmtdefense.com Page

IF THERE IS ANY REASON TO SUSPECT THAT A BULLET IS OBSTRUCTING THE

BARREL, IMMEDIATELY UNLOAD THE FIREARM AND LOOK THROUGH THE BORE. IT IS NOT

SUFFICIENT TO MERELY LOOK IN THE CHAMBER. A BULLET MAY BE LODGED SOME DISTANCE

DOWN THE BARREL WHERE IT CANNOT EASILY BE SEEN. IF A BULLET IS IN THE BORE, DO NOT

ATTEMPT TO SHOOT IT OUT BY USING ANOTHER CARTRIDGE, OR BY BLOWING IT OUT WITH A

BLANK OR ONE FROM WHICH THE BULLET HAS BEEN REMOVED. SUCH TECHNIQUES CAN

GENERATE EXCESSIVE PRESSURE, DESTROY THE FIREARM AND CAUSE SERIOUS PERSONAL

INJURY TO YOU AND BYSTANDERS.

If the bullet can be removed by pushing it out with a cleaning rod, clean any unburned powder grains from the

bore, chamber, and mechanism before resuming shooting. If the bullet cannot be dislodged by firmly tapping it

with a cleaning rod, take the firearm to a gunsmith.

While shooting any semi-automatic firearm, an unfired cartridge or fired cartridge case may occasionally

become jammed between the bolt and the barrel. Clear the jam as follows, WHILE KEEPING THE MUZZLE

POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION: Remove the magazine, then pull back the bolt and hold or lock it to the

rear. The jammed cartridge or case now can be removed by shaking it out or by picking it out with the fingers.

When the bolt is jammed closed, rotate the safety to “SAFE”, and remove the magazine while pointing the gun

in a safe direction. Immediately take the weapon to a qualified gunsmith or armourer to determine what

caused the jam before resuming shooting.

Dirt, corrosion, or other foreign matter on a cartridge can impede complete chambering and may cause the

cartridge case to burst upon firing. The same is true of cartridges which are damaged or deformed.

Do not oil cartridges, and be sure to wipe the chamber clean of any oil or preservative before commencing to

shoot. Oil actually interferes with the friction between the cartridge case and chamber wall that is necessary for

safe functioning and subjects the firearm to stress similar to that imposed by excessive pressure.

Use lubricants sparingly on the moving parts of your firearm. Avoid excessive spraying of any aerosol gun care

product, especially where it may get on ammunition. All lubricants, and aerosol spray lubricants in particular,

can penetrate cartridge primers and cause misfires. Some highly penetrative lubricants can also migrate inside

cartridge cases and cause deterioration of the propellant powder and firing the powder may not ignite. If only

the primer ignites there is danger that the bullet may become lodged in the barrel.

Rev F www.lmtdefense.com Page

CAUTION !..

Never fire any semi-automatic and/or fully automatic firearm with your finger, hand, face, or

other part of your body over or adjacent to the ejection port, or in any position where you may be struck by the

reciprocating movement of the operating bolt or carrier group. Both the ejection of empty cartridge cases and

the movement of the operating carrier group are part of the normal operating cycle of semi-automatic firearms

and pose no safety hazard to the shooter if the firearm is held in a normal grip and fired at arm length as

intended by its design. All firearms require periodic maintenance and inspection which may reveal a need for

adjustment or repair. Have your firearm checked by a competent gunsmith or armourer annually even if it

seems to be working well since breakage, improper functioning, undue wear, or corrosion of some

components may not be apparent from external examination. If you notice ANY mechanical malfunction, DO

NOT continue to use the firearm. UNLOAD the firearm and take it to a competent gunsmith or armourer

immediately. Similarly, if water, sand, or other foreign matter enters the internal mechanism, the firearm should

be dismantled for complete and thorough cleaning. Failure to keep your firearm clean and in proper working

order can lead to a potentially dangerous condition.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

ENSURE YOUR FIREARM IS UNLOADED BEFORE BEGINNING TO CLEAN IT (SEE

“INSPECTING YOUR FIREARM” SECTION). ALWAYS FOLLOW THE RULES OF SAFE GUN HANDLING.

Before using your firearm for the first time, it should be cleaned. Your firearm has been treated with either a

preservative or oil to protect against corrosion. Before using it, all excess oil should be wiped from the bore,

chamber and exposed areas using a clean swab or patch. A light coat of high quality gun oil should be applied

to the outside surfaces and mechanism. Care should be taken not to oil the mechanism to the extent where oil

will be dripping or running down the firearm. Dirt and residue will be trapped if too much oil is present.

Avoid contact between cleaning rod and muzzle as resultant wear will reduce accuracy.

Attach a cotton flannel patch to the end of a cleaning rod. Insert it in the chamber and pass rod and patch

down through the barrel. Repeat, changing patches until the patch comes out clean.

Visually inspect the barrel. If it is clean, wipe all components dry and lubricate. If it is still dirty, continue with

cleaning.

Attach brass wire bristle brush to cleaning rod and dip brush in gun cleaning solution. Thoroughly scrub out

barrel, passing the brush all the way through before reversing the movement. If you try to change direction

with brush and barrel, the brush will stick.

Attach a larger, chamber cleaning brush to the cleaning rod, dip the brush in bore cleaning solution and clean

the chamber. Use a minimum of five plunge strokes and three 360 degree clockwise, rotational strokes.

WIPE ALL COMPONENTS CLEAN AND DRY.

Lightly moisten a flannel patch with gun oil and pass it once through the barrel, leaving a thin film of oil on the

inside surface. Leave this film of oil on the inside surface if the firearm is to be stored. If it is not to be stored or

if it is being removed from storage for use, pass a dry patch through barrel and chamber to remove as much

oil as possible.

Reassemble the firearm as previously described.

Remove any gun cleaning solution, oil and fingerprints from the outside surfaces of the firearm. (Finger

moisture, if left, could start a corrosion process)

CAUTION !..

Gas tube will discolor from heat. Do not attempt to remove discoloration.

CAUTION !..

Always follow the instructions provided with your gun cleaner and gun lubricant.

Rev F www.lmtdefense.com Page

CAUTION !..

Some cleaners can cause damage to your firearms. You should avoid prolonged solvent

immersion and prolonged ultrasonic cleaning of your firearm. Choice of solvent should be restricted to those

products specifically developed for firearms maintenance. Damage to a firearm’s finish may occur if these

cautions are ignored. Ammoniated solvents or other strong alkaline solvents should not be used on any Lewis

Machine & Tool Co. firearm. As a rule of thumb, if you would be comfortable applying the solvent of your

choice to the finish of your automobile, it would probably be safe for use on your firearm.

After the cleaning, there may be some residue in both the barrel and action that works out and becomes

apparent within 24-48 hours. This can be removed with a bristle brush and a light reapplication of powder

removing solvent after which the oil film should be re-established on all surfaces.

Cleaning is essential to ensure the proper functioning of your firearm.

Your firearm is a precision instrument. To ensure reliable function it is necessary to follow a routine

maintenance procedure. After firing your firearm, be sure to unload it following the procedure outlined in the

section entitled “Inspecting Your Firearm” before performing any cleaning or maintenance procedure.

NEVER MANIPULATE, ADJUST OR CHANGE ANY OF THE INTERNAL COMPONENTS

OF YOUR FIREARM UNLESS SPECIFICALLY DIRECTED TO DO SO IN THIS MANUAL. IMPROPER

MANIPULATION OF ANY INTERNAL COMPONENT MAY AFFECT THE SAFETY AND RELIABILITY OF

YOUR FIREARM AND MAY CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.

ANY MAINTENANCE OR SERVICE NOT SPECIFIED IN THIS MANUAL MUST BE

PERFORMED BY A QUALIFIED GUNSMITH USING GENUINE LEWIS MACHINE & TOOL CO. PARTS. IF

YOU DO OTHERWISE, IMPROPER FUNCTIONING OF YOUR FIREARM MAY OCCUR AND SERIOUS

INJURY OR DEATH MAY RESULT.

If your firearm will be used or stored in a cold climate, be sure to use an oil of appropriate weight so that it will

not congeal in the cold temperatures.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE OF PISTON SYSTEM (FIGURE 7E)

The piston system is designed to work despite carbon build-up and dirt, and concentrate any operational

debris near the gas block, away from the user. However, regular cleaning and maintenance will help insure

your weapon remains at its optimal performance. All surfaces can be cleaned with CLP or an equivalent

solution. A bore brush may be used to remove build-up from the interior of the gas plug, and drawn across the

small gas hole to clean out build-up there. A cloth may be used to wipe down the surfaces of the piston.

It is not advisable to remove the gas rings from the piston.

Rev F www.lmtdefense.com Page

ACTION OF MECHANISM

LOADING PROCEDURES AND FUNCTION BEFORE FIRING

The weapon is initially cocked, before firing, by pulling the charging handle (Figure 1 (4)) completely to the

rear, which will cause the bolt carrier group (Figure 1 (3)) to move rearwards.

As the carrier moves rearward, it contacts the hammer, forcing it to rotate rearwards about its axis, cocking on

the trigger.

• Empty magazine fitted. The magazine platform will actuate the bolt catch and hold the bolt carrier group to

the rear.

• Loaded magazine fitted. The bolt catch must be operated manually by pressing on the lower projection of

the bolt catch, to hold the bolt carrier group to the rear.

• No magazine fitted: The bolt catch must be operated manually by pressing on the lower projection of the

bolt catch, to hold the bolt carrier group to the rear.

LOAD

With a loaded magazine on the weapon and the bolt carrier group to the rear, actuation of the bolt catch will

allow the bolt carrier group to be driven forward under influence of the return spring (Figure 2 (3)).

As the carrier moves forward, the lugs of the bolt contact the base of the top round in the magazine, and feed

it into the chamber.

As the bolt locking lugs enter the barrel extension the round is stopped by the shoulders in the chamber. The

ejector (Figure 11 (6)) is pushed against the left side of the round base placing the ejector spring under

tension. The extractor (Figure 11 (2)) over-rides the round rim and snaps into the extractor groove on the right

side of the round base.

LOCK

Forward motion of the bolt is stopped by the chamber. The bolt carrier continues to move forward until it is

stopped by contact with the rear face of the barrel extension. At the same time, the bolt cam pin (Figure 9A

(4)) contacts the angled face of the carrier cam slot, forcing the bolt to rotate. The bolt lugs rotate behind the

barrel extension lugs, locking the bolt.

FIRE

With the fire selector lever (Figure 3) set to “Fire” and/or “Auto” the weapon may be fired. When the trigger

(Figure 4 (6)) is squeezed, it rotates rearward about its axis, disengaging the sear from the hammer. The

hammer then rotates forward under influence of its own spring (Figure 4 (5)). The front face of the hammer

strikes the rear face of the firing pin, driving it forward impacting against the rear of the primer in the round.

This ignites the propellant in the round, driving the projectile through the barrel.

UNLOCK

The projectile is forced through the barrel by the propellant gases. As the projectile passes the gas port some

of the gases are bled off, passing along the gas tube (Figure 7A (1)), into bolt carrier key (Figure 10 (1)) and

then into the cylindrical section in the bolt carrier, where it fills the chamber behind the bolt.

The expansion of the gases begins to drive the bolt carrier rearwards.

During initial rearward movement of the bolt carrier, the bolt remains locked as the straight section of the bolt

carrier cam slot moves un-obstructed over the bolt cam pin. This allows gas pressures in the bore to drop to a

safe level before unlocking starts. (This is the dwell time.)

As the bolt carrier continues rearward, the angled face of the bolt carrier cam slot impinges on the bolt cam

stud, forcing the bolt to rotate. This rotation of the bolt allows the lugs on the bolt to clear the lugs of the barrel

extension. This allows unimpeded rearward movement, and as such unlocks the bolt from the barrel

extension.

The bolt and bolt carrier continue to move rearwards.

Rev F www.lmtdefense.com Page

EXTRACTION

As the bolt moves rearward, the extractor which is pinned to the bolt and engaged in the canullar groove of the

empty cartridge, withdraws the cartridge from the chamber.

EJECTION

The empty cartridge which is still held by the extractor (Figure 11 (2)) is withdrawn from the chamber. As the

cartridge clears the barrel extension and inline with the ejection port, the spring on the ejector re-asserts,

forcing the base of the cartridge to rotate about the extractor. The force of the ejector spring re-asserting flicks

the cartridge case out of the ejection port and clear of the weapon

NOTE: The ejection port cover assembly is opened by the bolt carrier acting on its latch housing, whenever

the bolt is moved either forward or rearward.

CHARGING AFTER FIRING

As the carrier group continues rearward, it compresses the return spring and cocks the hammer:

• Repetitive: The hammer is rotated rearwards about its axis and compresses its spring. The

disconnector (Figure 4 (2)) is rotated forward as a consequence of the trigger being pressed. As the

hammer ends its rotation, the hook on the disconnector engages the upper inside hook of the

hammer, holding it to the rear. The bolt carrier group moves forward under influence of the return

spring. When the trigger is released:

1. The trigger spring returns to its home position.

2. The trigger rotates the disconnector rearwards.

3. The trigger sear, located on the front face of the trigger body, moves in front of the hammer.

• The disconnector hook disengages from the hammer as the disconnector rotates rearwards.

Unrestrained, the hammer rotates forward under influence of its spring, and the hammer hook

engages with the hammer sear. The weapon is now ready to fire another shot.

PISTON SYSTEM (SUPPRESSED AND NON-SUPPRESSED MODES)

For the piston system to function in a normal cyclical operation, the piston plug must be positioned to match

the operator’s mission. There are two positions on the piston plug, “FIRE” and “SUPP”. These positions

represent different weapon operational configurations and must be configured to match. For operational

configuration that DOES NOT include a qualified sound suppressor system, the piston must be set so the

inscription of “FIRE” is presented to the top so the operator can view it. If the weapon is to be operated in a

suppressed mode with a qualified sound suppresser, the piston plug must be set so the inscription of “SUPP”

is presented to the top so the operator can view it. To set the piston plug to match the operation configuration,

depress the plunger (Figure 7C (1)) while rotating the plug (Figure 7C (2)) counter clockwise from the direction

of the breech for “FIRE” and clockwise for “SUPP”, until the plug is in the position wanted by the operator

(approximately 180°).

EQUIPMENT DAMAGE. When the MRP™ Weapon System is in the stripped condition

never release the hammer uncontrolled from the cocked position. Failure to comply with this instruction may

result in damage to the hammer, sear components and lower receiver and will void all warranties,

FIELD STRIPPING

• Various tasks to assemble and disassemble the weapon may require specialized armourer’s tools

(Figure 13) to safely and effectively complete the mission and or task. These tools can be obtained as

an option from Lewis Machine & Tool Co.

• Remove all external attachments (example: slings, sights, optics, lights, grips ).

• Rotate the fire selector lever to “Safe”. The fire selector lever must remain on “Safe” and the hammer

must remain cocked throughout the time the weapon is stripped. The design of the MRP™ Weapon

System is such that the fire selector lever can only be applied to “Safe” when the weapon is cocked.

• Ensure the magazine is not fitted to the weapon.

• Grasp the charging handle in an overhand grasp with the right hand, and pull it to the rear.

UPPER RECEIVER ASSEMBLY (REFER TO FIGURE 5)

The Upper Assembly provides a means of imparting direction and stability to the round along with consistency

of the sighting and accessory system provided by the user. It also houses the gas tube which aids in the cycle

of the weapon. The Upper Assembly consists of an MRP™ Weapon System (Figure 5 (1)) and Barrel

Assembly (Figure 5 (2)).

Rev F www.lmtdefense.com Page

BARREL ASSEMBLY (REFER TO FIGURE 7)

The Barrel Assembly along with the Bolt Carrier Group and Magazine can be changed by the operator / user

to accommodate various calibers.

There are configuration and operational differences between the standard gas tube system and the piston

system.

STANDARD (DIRECT IMPINGEMENT) GAS TUBE SYSTEM (REFER TO FIGURE 7A)

• The barrel (Figure 7A (2)) is threaded at the front to receive the compensator (Figure 7A (3)) and held in

place with a crush washer (Figure 7A (4)). Various compensators are available to match the operator’s

needs. The barrel has a drilled hole which allows gas to be vented through the gas block into the gas tube

(Figure 7A (1)) which is held in place with a roll pin (Figure 7A (5)).

• The gas tube (Figure 7A (1)) is retained by the gas tube pin; and the barrel assembly is retained in the

rear by the upper receiver.

PISTON SYSTEM (REFER TO FIGURE 7B)

• The barrel (Figure 7B (1)) is threaded at the front to receive the compensator (Figure 7B (6)) and held in

place with a crush washer (Figure 7B (7)). Various compensators are available to match the operator’s

needs. The barrel has a piston plug and rod assembly that facilitates the weapons action.

• When the rifle is fired, the developing gases expand inside of the gas block much like a traditional

Standard Gas System (DI). The expanding gases push against the short stroke piston (Figure 7B (5))

which exerts pressure on the operating rod (Figure 7B (3))and thus gives momentum to the bolt carrier.

Once the piston (Figure 7B (4)) itself has travelled less than 1.0 Inch (25MM), it expels any unused gases

from a small vent in the bottom of the piston tube. Once the cycle of the action is in progress, the piston

moves to the back of its chamber awaiting the return of the operating rod to push it back into its normal

resting state.

• The barrel assembly (Figure 7B) is retained in the rear by the upper receiver.

LOWER RECEIVER ASSEMBLY (REFER TO FIGURE 2)

The Lower Assembly provides a means of controlling the fire and safety mechanism. This mechanism consists

of the trigger, hammer (Figure 4), and selector lever (Figure 3). The lower receiver (Figure 2 (25)) also houses

the magazine well and catch (Figure 2 (23)) which allows the operation to hold a multi round magazine (Figure

1 (9)) that is provided. It also houses the buffer (Figure 2 (9)) and spring system (Figure 2 (3)) aids in the cycle

of the weapon.

BOLT CARRIER GROUP (REFER TO FIGURE 9)

The Bolt Carrier Group consists of the Bolt Carrier (Figure 10), Bolt (Figure 11) and Firing Pin (Figure 9 (2)).

This assembly is what operates with the gas system to help in the ejection of the spent cartridge and loads the

next cartridge for firing from the magazine. When the trigger (Figure 4 (6)) is squeezed, it rotates rearward

about its axis, disengaging the sear from the hammer. The hammer then rotates forward under influence of its

own spring (Figure 4 (5)). The front face of the hammer strikes the rear face of the firing pin (Figure 9 (2)),

driving it forward impacting against the rear of the primer in the round. This ignites the propellant in the round,

driving the projectile through the barrel.

The Bolt Carrier Group along with the Barrel Assembly and Magazine can be changed by the operator / user

to accommodate various calibers.

TACTICAL SIGHT UNITS (REFER TO FIGURE 1)

The tactical sight unit comprises of two units, Front Tactical Sight (Figure 1 (1)) and the Rear Tactical Sight

Unit (Figure 1 (2)). The front site post is moved up or down when zeroing the rear sight. Adjustments can be

made by depressing the locking pin with a bullet tip and twisting the post or a special adjustment tool (NSN

9510-00-640-4407). The Tactical Rear Sight has a dual aperture for normal and longer range firing. Windage

adjustments can be made with rear sight.
