The LT-29 Pro line Enforcer Needletail
This is what Lancer would call their Pro Line series, fitted with some higher quality modern furniture & featuring a very quirky aesthetic the Needletail LT-29 is certainly a love or hate, or as some might call it a marmite gun.
The gun features a full alloy construction, unlike it's other relatives such as the previously mentioned LT-15 which are built from polymer, which gives it a heavy & realistic feel. The front end features a sleek & modern M-LOK Handguard designed to reduce bulkiness & overall weight, in which you can either fit dedicated M-LOK accessories or 20mm rail sections. A standard birdcage flash hider can also be seen on the front end, which if removed will expose a 14mm CCW thread for the addition of suppressors, flash hiders, muzzle breaks & tracer units, just be aware of the grub screw before removing it!
Towards the rear of the gun you'll see a rather peculiar stock which is certainly what makes the gun stand out among others, rocking a futuristic look with an enclosed pistol grip brace & an extra magazine well to house a 120rnd stubby mag, a QD sling point, adjustable position shoulder brace via a lever on the underside & enough room for a decent sized battery! Just be sure not to over-slide the stock as it may come off, as this is also how you access the battery compartment.
The LT-29 does also come in an anodised red, which features a red accent outer barrel, buffer plate, castle nut, mag release, flat trigger, dust cover, charging handle & mock bolt release!
Oh did we mention, this one comes 11.1v ready 😎 LT-29 GO BRRRRRRRRRRR!
