RobArm XCR

14 April 04

The XCR's are shipping!!! They'll trickle out slowly at first and be delivered in larger quantities over the next two months. We greatly appreciate the patience of those who have waited for this product.

We are the only U.S. owned manufacturer which makes new and innovative rifles of this type. This takes a little longer, but is more than worth the wait.

there is a comprehesive thread about the arrival of the XCR on arfcom and as of now no one has posted any pictures of their XCR...

because those people that have the XCR have the special ones that were full auto and that nobody else can see them. Robarm made them that way so the BATF couldn't just confiscate them;)
 
Wow, someone in the US actually got their XCRs!!! looks like a nice rifle. I might order one, but I wonder if the idiots in power will classify it as an AR variant?

What do you guys think?

The range report from the website linked to of ar15.com said:
Parts in common with mousegun [i.e., ar15], mag release, magazines, pistol grip, trigger-guard and flash-hider

So no, I don't think they could justify calling it a variant.
 
It's amazing how many negative voices there are on arfcom. When you compare the XCR thread(s) on there with the ones on CGN it's pleasant to see us canucks saying: I'd sure like to try it out, compared to the american: This gun/company is BS!

It's the restricted/non-restricted BS that makes us like the M96 and the XCR. If the AR does not become non-restricted when the registry goes, I'd buy an XCR in a heartbeat, it's cheaper than the Swiss PE90.

dont worry, it will stay the way it is.
 
"I just got back from the range and I am impressed. Say what you want about the comparison chart and the "two weeks" but the rifle to me is worth it. As soon as another rifle comes in, I'll try to get a bare weight.

On the range, the gun feels light and responsive. I shot from 0 to 200 yards and it was easy to shoot and pointed well for me. All told, I shot another 250 to 300 rounds of wolf through it for a total of 800 to date. Recoil was light with the gas port on the 1st setting. Hits from any field position were easy for me at 150 yards and from prone, easy at 200 yards. This was better for me than I have ever done with an AR.

I shot it off hand at 50 and 100 yards and hits were easy. I am a poor off hand shooter and I felt good with this rifle. I shot the gun with the stock folded and a VFG at 50 and 100 yards and hits were possible, although not quick at 100 yards. What does this prove, probably nothing, but I thought I would see how it would do if you got caught with the stock folded. It did have one fail to feed shooting it this way when I "limp wristed" it. With a better grip, no further problems.

I have shot the HK G36 and 93, the sig 551 series, the AR, the AK, Galil, and FAL. I prefer it over all. I would not say that it is better than the AR as the AR is a darn fine rifle and very ergonomic, but I like the XCR a little better. I always have liked a folding stock and the XCR was ordered with the length of pull that fits me best. I like the lower sight plane and do not plan to use the AR style sights on it. The controls fall into place very, very good as would be expected as they are for the most part the same as an AR. I really like the central bolt catch/release. It is very quick to use with the trigger finger or off hand thumb.

I broke the gun open and it is amazingly clean. The bore does not look like the gun has been fired, the bolt and carrier have a little fowling, but it looks confined to large grooves and open spaces. The chamber is clean and the locking lugs are mildly fowled. Overall, pretty impressive.

The length of the rails is nice compared to a carbine length AR. This is enough room for a bipod leaving a comfortable sized grip area left. A bipod on a carbine length rail is a little tight for me. A midlenght is another story I am sure, but I have not handled a midlenght. The rails appear well made with no sharp edges.

I am quite pleased with the gun."
