Want your help with LMC's

I'm looking for some help from those who have or have had LMC calls. If you don't have it anymore why? I have decided on getting one and want your opinions on them. In particular the Reaper, Slipknot, Lawmaker, and Goose Noose Hybrid.

Post your question, quite a few guys running them on this site.
I did. If you have one, in particular one of the four I asked about, why do you like it? If you had one and no longer have it, why not??
I have a $150 gift certificate to Cabela's and those are the four LMC's they have.
I'd personally go with the Reaper or the Lawmaker. The Reaper is smaller, runs fast, can get the full vocabulary. The lawmaker, while still a pretty small call won't be as high pitched but was made because it takes such little air and it also can reach all spots. These are the two I like to run as well as the Xfactor, but it is not at Cabela's yet. The Reaper is also a good choice due to the new insert, it allows it to be run with 1 hand so a person can flag with the other.
Go blow all 4 calls and see which one you like best. Thats ok if you are sold on a Lynch Mob call but if you go to Cabelas I would suggest you blow as many goose calls as you can. It's the only way to know which call is best for you.
It seems like LMC offers a call for every hunter. If you want a low, mellow call then I would suggest a Slipknot. The call can also scream with a little more air.

The reaper absolutely screams too. You can do everything with it and be very fast with it too.

These are the two calls that I run and have not even had a second thought about picking up another call.
Not to hijack the thread, but I got a Slipknot for X-mas and was screwing around with it today and noticed the reed looked like it had been shaved on one end. Is this normal? Would they have done that @ the shop? It was bought @ Macks PW.

BTW, it is low and goosey. I love it. I have another short reed on my lanyard that is higher pitched but I can get alot faster with it than I can with the Slipknot.

Yes and yes.
Ran a Reaper this year and no complaints whatsoever...I did fall in love with the FP Matrix at Burlington though, felt they were pretty comparable
I use the old style X-Factor (Reaper now a days) along with two different Slipknot Hybrids in different materials.

Both calls in my opinion are easy to run and can hit the notes that I like to hit when calling. The Reaper is louder and quicker in my opinion and has a higher crack to it so to speak compared to the Slipknots which can produce that big gander sound.
My Reaper just show up. Hey Abbas do you have any worn in guts for it?
it might have the new xfactors in it which will wear in very quickly. The set of xfactors that i got from someone last week already look well used.
What color are the new x factor guts?
