XCR-L spare parts kit recommendations

Same problem with my 7.62, bolt catch will slam shut with normal handling unless I push up on the catch to fully engage it. Seems like a common problem.

Fifth the bolt catch that comes up from your magwell. Often the action will slam shut on me when holding just the grip and hitting the stock with a light bump with my palm or just inserting a loaded magazine (not hammering it home either), my xcr is awating a new one from wolverine right now actually, though I am weary that it will fix the issue. I say this because, I have even had brand new ones come from dealers that didn't fix the problem at all, literally install and insert loaded mag (or just set it on a table with the action open) and it slams home without you touching the release or the operating handle. Ill have it sitting on the bench sometimes and it will simply suddenly slam shut while no ones near it and its on a bi-pod, not the range officers favorite thing to see happening either when its a cease fire. TBH getting sick of trying to figure this issue out and Robinson Arms wont get back to me, so Wolverine if you have any input on that issue please share. I have had gunsmiths look at it and they see nothing wrong. I have a new as of december xcr and a late 2011 model, both do it, even after installing new catches. both 7.62x39 with all stock internals and nothing done to the upper or lower or barrel. I am absolutely wishing for a solution but I see none in sight.

AWOL - Thank you
Wolverine - Thank you
My gun fund - I'm sorry
I'm down like a rodeo clown, Jack!
As a sidenote, are the AR adapters RA made still available, or were they ever available as a spare part? I'm sure if you can get them and theyre not too expensive they would sell well.

These bolt catches, like the M16 family of catches, are spring loaded to drop when the bolt carrier forward pressure is taken off them. It is not uncommon for the bolt to release when the mag is slammed in and certainly a blow on the butt will cause them to release but what you describe is different. I can only assume that for the bolt catch to release on its own, it was barely engaged and/or the angle of the mating surfaces is not correct. It might be partly the mag follower at fault but I would need to examine her to make any further comment.
 
Sorry no PM’s as at any one time we have over 1500 back orders, we are trying to cut back on these as they are very time consuming. When the spare part kits are available I will post the info here and o our web site, we will order in plenty, sorry no back orders on these.

$175 seems very reasonable for an assembled kit. As I was previously looking at getting something like an armorers kit from RA, this is great news. I would gladly pay that.

You have 1500 XCR's on Backorder? :runaway:

Also, I have an XCR and Some Mags on backorder. If my rifle comes in and the mags are still back ordered, is there anyway you can ship my rifle and then ship the mags after they come in?

I can pay separate shipping for my mags.

I'm dieing to play w/ my new toy.

Firstly not 1500 XCR on back order but a total of over 1500 back orders made up of all sorts of things.

Yes, when we have a rifle and accessories on a back order it is very differcult to hold items until the order is complete, we would much rather ship what we can when we can but we always try and work out a method that works for both the customer and us.
