The BSA Lee (model LR21) is a battle rifle designed and manufactured by British Surplus Arms. The design is similar in function to the old US M-14 rifle. With a rather unique profile unlike most other established firearms, the Lee is unrelated to any particular families of firearm design. Most LR21s sport synthetic furniture, though a few have been refitted with custom wood furniture for marksmen who prefer the different weight, balance, and feel of wood, or perhaps the benifits wood furniture provides in close quarters melee combat. The magazine feeds from on top, and thus the LR21 borrows from the Bren's sight system, using offset irons to work around the magazine. Due to this there are left-handed shooter sights available to provide ambidexterous functionality to this main battle rifle.

As the LR21 was created later in the Third War when NWI forces utilized tougher infantry with heavy armor, the weapon was chambered for the large 8x71 round.
