So does anybody here own the Robinson Arms XCR?  

If so how do you like it?

How does it shoot?

Has it been reliable?

Nope, but I wish I did.

I just hope it's lighter than their Expeditionary series.

I saw one for sale on gunbroker.  I guess it was an auction to reserve one.

I also read that it would be released this Sept.  

I must have one!  This rifle looks amazing.  It reminds me of the SCAR.

Goto their website, Robarm.com,  and they have videos on full auto and caliber swapping. I have one ordered, last I heard they should start to ship at the end of the month.

I looked at Robarms for a while, but for what you get, it is more bang for the buck for an AR.

The XCR looks nice and I would not mind owning one. However if you want the SCAR, it will be released to civilians eventually, so says FN, along with the F2000.

I am getting one from Larry at FMBG Inc. and he went to Rob Arms today and this is the email he sent:

They said 5 weeks.  I'm guessing that it is going to
be more like 6-7.
