Interesting issues you had! I experienced none of yours, aside from rounds not feeding from a mag. I'd be interested to see how your rifle performs on gas setting 2 (well, once you have your barrel mounted properly, anyway...)
I will be doing further testing this week hopefully, with more ammo types, different optic, and playing with the settings as well trying to print on paper, thats also if i can correct the barrel issue....
Is this guy trying to sell this garbage rifle in Canada??? It has everything i don't wanna have happening to my rifle. ####, we live in a weird world for sure.
Well that "guy" is myself ( Wolverine .303 AKA: Ty )..... Yes we have them for sale on the website? What I experienced here in this video I truly hope we are able to correct, we shall see in the upcoming weeks.
Was this video intended to make people wanna buy this rifle? Haha, that’s a little disappointing.
We set out to do QD reviews on a variety of firearms, this particular one didn't go well for it, for now hopefully. I refuse to get half way through something and then just scrap it because I don't like the outcome. It is what it is, I'm hoping in the upcoming weeks we can have a functional firearm that performs better, but we will have to wait and see!
Is the light mounted to the rifle that far away as a stabilizer or… ??
I like a "thumb over grip" and with it mounted in that position I can easily still activate the light and still be able to get a good consistent hand placement on the forend. Another gentleman at the shop here would curse me for not directly mounting it to the M-LOK section with a proper scout mount, but in the end its functionality is the same.
1. There is no way the charging handle can come out on the Gen 2, unless it’s not properly installed.
2. Gen 2’s only ship with pmags.
3. Bolt hold open mags are known to cause issue with the m10x.
Makes me a bit skeptical of the rest of the review.
Is it an older rifle?
I owned one and never had the barrel shift issue.
Using pmags and Barnaul the rifle functioned flawlessly. It ran poorly with Chinese surplus and steel mags.
Sold it, with full disclosure, because I wanted to shoot cheap ammo. I’ve got plenty of rifles to shoot .70 cent rounds out of.
Once I found the secret recipe of pmags and newly manufactured Russian ammo, it ran like a top - not a single malfunction in maybe 300 rounds.
It’s amazing the different reviews on this rifle tho. Everyone’s millage seems to very.
The charging handle was properly installed, so don't know what to tell ya there, its clear on the video that it came out...
Correct, BUT I have "extra" magazines that are supplied by the same company for this rifle, I didn't have 4x AK PMAGs to fart around with, but that was the smallest problem honestly as the magazines that are sold for this are generally surplus anyways so you may are may not come across issues.... This is small fries in the grand scheme of things..
Are they now? Good to know!
Be skeptical if you wish to be, that's your right as an end user and good on you not trusting everything you see on the internet as gospel..
Nope, brand new.
Follow up sessions Imma try a few different ammos hopefully. But this is not super relevant unless we can correct the barrel issue.
Regarding the barrel issue, there is a set screw that’s under the handguard just in front of the magwell, check that’s it’s tight at 50in/lbs.
Otherwise the barrel will move relative to the handguard/optics rail assembly, might be what’s going on there.
Did check this, regardless of being properly torqued in place, it will not properly align with the handguard.
Why would they post this if they sell it?
Because I am an honest person? Or I try to be anyways..
I would imagine it’s because it competes with their in-house product that they control the market on
100% absolutely
NOT....... that type of business practice is trash. Seriously don't approve of that type of comment, hurt me right in the feels.
I wonder how long did it take for the XCR to work out it’s problems?
Not fibbin', it took a little while there were some problems in the beginning. We worked closely with RA ( being their distributer and warranty center ) so we saw ALL the problems. There were a few for sure, some silly ones, some that made you scratch your head. But I believe we did our best to turn every problem or warranty claim around in the best manner possible. Once RA had things moving those rifles were honestly superb.. I regret never getting my hands on one for myself...
