Although American hunters may not be familiar with Lithgow Arms, the manufacturer has been making firearms in Australia since 1912. Now, Legacy Sports International imports three Lithgow models—the LA101 Crossover rimfire, LA102 Crossover centerfire sporter and LA105 long-range precision rifle—to the United States. The LA102 has a free-floated, cold-hammer-forged barrel; Picatinny rail integral to the receiver; three-position safety; user-adjustable trigger; and detachable box magazine. In addition, the barrel, receiver and bolt handle have a Cerakote finish, and the muzzle is threaded for a suppressor. The LA102 is available in .223 Rem., .243 Win., 6.5 Creedmoor and .308 Win. MSRP for the wood-stocked LA102 is $1,499; MSRP for the synthetic-stocked model with an adjustable length of pull is $1,399.
