MVP LC <strong>SAR</strong> Vol. 20, No. 2 54 MARCH 2016
ming from misconceptions based on price and elitist sentiments. Many individuals, not to mention industry competitors, want you to believe that the moderately priced Mossberg must somehow be deficient when compared to rifles costing two to three times more. An individual’s or department’s needs should be fully analyzed and the Mossberg MVP LC considered. The Mossberg MVP LC takes a back seat to no rifle in terms of precision, repeatable accuracy, ergonomics, reliability, trigger, capacity and safety. The MVP LC evaluated herein is chambered .308 Win. with a 5.56mm/.223 Rem. model available. The MVP LC features a modified Mossberg 4x4 bolt action. Overall length is 38 inches with the free-floated medium profile 18.25 inch barrel equipped with a threaded on SilencerCo Trifecta muzzle brake that can be removed to make room for other muzzle devices or capping of the 5/8 x 24 threads. Mossberg is using a MDT LSS (Modular Driven Technologies Light Sniper System) chassis with the MVP LC. The integral bedding block and free floated forend assist in improving accuracy and ergonomics. The chassis system is manufactured out of billet 6061-T6 aluminum, which is then hard anodized to Mil-Spec type III for extra strength. With an emphasis on compactness, the MDT LSS was designed for collapsible AR-15 buttstocks. The MDT LSS stock enables the use of external detachable magazines. The MDT stock is pre-drilled and threaded in various locations to accept Picatinny rails along its sides as well as a night vision hood in front of a mounted optic. The 1:10 twist hammer forged barrel gets the most out of the various wide ranging .308 loads on the market i.e. 147 grain to 175 grain. The MVP LC weighs 8.5 pounds empty without an optic attached. The rifle’s relatively light weight gives the rifle improved portability and above average handling characteristics for a precision tactical bolt action rifle. Many tactical rifles, while accurate, resemble boat anchors when OPPOSITE PAGE LEFT: The MDT LSS chassis features a low profile forend that facilitates use of a bipod or other front end support. A Caldwell bipod comes as standard equipment with the Mossberg MVP LC. LEFT TOP: The Mossberg LBA trigger is crisp, creep free and fully adjustable between 2 and 7 pounds. From the box it measured just below a 4 pound pull weight. LEFT BOTTOM: SilencerCo Trifecta muzzle brake that can be used with suppressor or removed to make room for other muzzle devices or capping off the 5/8 x 24 threads. It proved effective at taming recoil. WWW.SMALLARMSREVIEW.COM 55 <strong>SAR</strong> Vol. 20, No. 2
