The LVOA-C is an AR-15 manufactured by North Carolina-based War Sport Industries.
Specifications
The LVOA-C (manufactured by War Sport Industries) is a direct gas-impingement (DGI) operated rifle based on the AR-15. It features a proprietary barrel shroud with an integrated muzzle brake/flash suppressor which serves its intended manufacturing purpose to be a close quarter combat weapon with a low visibility operation application (LVOA). The assault rifle features both chamber options of 5.56X45mm NATO rounds and .223 Wylde.
The LVOA-C weighs 7 pounds (3.2 kg) unloaded (7.5 pounds (3.4 kg) with a 30 rounds magazine) and measures 35.5 inches (90 cm) in length (32.75 inches (83.2 cm) with a closed stock).[1] It has been widely used by private military companies for overseas and domestic operations due to its reliability, low recoil and visual signature.
History
War Sport Industries, an established force in military textile and ammunition manufacturing, developed its new revised assault rifle to support "Low Visibility Operation / Applications for the modern war fighter."[2] in an effort to provide a relevant response to the current unconventional warfare requiring high mobility and low visibility in confined environments. Private security contractors such as Triple Canopy and GRS[3] adopted the LVOA-C as their main operational weapon in sensitive matters.
Media presence
The LVOA-C has been highly advertised in video games and movies for its engaging design and innovative proprietary barrel shroud. It is present in Ubisoft's Tom Clancy's The Division video game franchise. Its media presence has been a major factor in the recent success of War Sport Industries, which saw its personnel roster growing from "two employees, to over twenty"[2] from 2013 to 2016.
