I got one too!!! i phoned a couple times. I think I was the first one, I called at like 8:59:59 (the second time, the first time, I was too early)

just sent my bank draft to them too!! Now comes the hard part....waiting

I am stoked for me non-restricted gopher/coyote slayer

 

[Armament]

I'm somewhat envious but on the other hand you get to be the guinea pigs
The reviews I've read from down south have all been great so far.

jwc- for optics i am gonna try my eotech 552, and my leupod mark iv tmr, and maybe an ACOG clone. see which one goes best for blasting gophers and coyotes. I want this thing NOW!!!

Hopefully we do see the rifles soon. Robarm is laughed at on arfcom because their motto seemed to be "two more weeks" for a long time regarding the XCR. I really want this thing for gopher season.

greentips- are the 7.62x39 mags going to be roll and lock ala vz,ak, or push into place like ar mags? a 7.62x39 kit might be a must for deer season. i gotta check out their website

 

[P0WERWAGON]

yes but RobArms said their famous words "Two more Weeks"

I am going to wait for the SCAR-H to be released...or maybe even the XCR-M...

I'm leaning towards an ACOG (with Dr. Optic backup). I certainly hope that two weeks really means two weeks.

Check out this vid: http://www.robarm.com/xcr 7.62x39 conversion mpg.mpg

Granted, it is certainly a prototype mag.

wow this thread died off. There's alot of reviews on the XCR on ar15.com under Arms&tactics. the reviews look pretty promising

 

[P0WERWAGON]

and how do you expect a thread to stay alive when there are no guns yet, only orders?

 

[Throttle_monkey1]

I dunno. how about we guess when robarm will finally ship them? I will be optimistic and say last week of march

 

[skycrane]

this is great news, after 2 years waiting they are finally on the way. I can't wait for the reviews.

 

[Scarecrow]

2 years for them to be one the way, hope they worked out the kinks in that time.

Got my American model XCR 4 weeks ago. I paid 1570.00 USD total / with tax. Mine has the 16 inch barrel and folding stock. I now have 180 rounds thru it. No problems at all so far. I plan on shooting more tomorrow. I hope my neighbors to the north get theirs soon.

Well, as far as Canadians are concerned for non-restricted black rifles... I think the XCR is the best thing going (been thinking about it for a couple days).

It's tighter than the AR180B, little plastic in comparison to the SL8 & 180B and noticeably less expensive than the Swiss Arms when you factor in the half dozen or more AR mags

Yep, if I wanted a Non-restricted .223 I think the XCR "is" the way to go.
I am starting to regret not having tried to get one Dammit!

I predict the XCR will soon become very popular up in these parts.
