Engineering:LVOA-C
The LVOA-C is an AR-15 manufactured by North Carolina-based War Sport Industries.
Specifications
The LVOA-C (manufactured by War Sport Industries by Inventor Joey Boswell) 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.
History
According to War Sport Industries, the rifle was developed as its support "Low Visibility Operation / Applications for the modern war fighter."[1] in an effort to provide a relevant response to the current unconventional warfare requiring high mobility and low visibility in confined environments.
Media presence
The LVOA-C has been highly advertised in video games and movies for its engaging design and innovative proprietary barrel shroud[citation needed]. It is present in Ubisoft's Tom Clancy's The Division & Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands video game franchise. It is also a weapon available in Tencent Games' Battle Royale Shooter Ring Of Elysium. 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"[1] from 2013 to 2016.
