Re: PREORDER Robinson Armament XCR-M in .308 & .260
I have been looking at these since the test vid leaked last year sometime. MSRP is looking around 1800-2500. From what I found they are taking the DPMS mags. Will have one sooner or later.

Mohonri, Thanks for posting. Indeed we do have a new rifle based that is chambered for cartridges based on the .308 cartridge. The rifle is a continuation of our XCR-L series rifles. We will begin shipping the rifles next month.
Here's why you might be interested:
Aside from being super reliable with the best ergonomics around they have:
1) A full 1913 rail machined parallel to the bore of the rifle.
2) A quick change barrel system that actually re-zeros. Caliber changes take literally minutes. We are already offering .308 and .260.
3) Two different upper receivers lengths that can accept barrels from 13" up to 20" in length.
4) Smooth operation and low recoil.
They use the SR-25/DPMS/P-MAG type magazines. The average price is about $2300 including our new FAST stock which is fully adjustable and folds too.
It will be hard to find a system better than this. If you have any questions, please post them. I will be glad to answer them.

The site is new and has a few bugs. That should be fixed. There are so many different iterations of our rifles that we are working on a "configurator" program which will allow you to build the configuration of your choice on the scree. This should be done this week.
Cheers

Is the trigger mechanism a standard AR type that can be upgraded or is it a propriety design? What is the chance of someone being able to personally handle a prototype\pre-release at your facility in SLC?
Thanks,

Always nice to see manufactures on these forums taking the time to answer questions.

Here's the problem, we heard lots of chatter from tactical instructors that "match" triggers" for ARs did not hold up when put to the extremes. A few years ago, we designed a trigger that has about a 4 lb. pull AND can take a beating over a long period of time without problems. It is also two stage. A gunsmith can easliy shorten the 2nd stage so that it has a very match feel to it, yet they still hold up.

Good to see manufacturer response without having to ask them to come here! Thanks. Seems like the same good service I have encountered with them! Sad to here there was a few issues, but they happen.
I am excited about the XCR-M rifle and new stock!
What style mags does the XCR-M use?
Piston system - reliable/durable/low maintenance
Affordable conversions. More caliber conversions will be offered later?

The XCR-M uses the SR-25/DPMS/PMAG type magazines.
We will end up with quite a few conversions. We could do .243, 7mm 08, 6.5x47, etc.

Re: PREORDER Robinson Armament XCR-M in .308 & .260
Just curious if you will be offering to have a 300blk barrel for the XCR L. Once VA gets off their thumbs I will be seeing about getting both XCR L and M. Really liking both system in fact still kicking myself about doing the ACR instead of your platform mainly cause you all actually have the barrel conversion kits already out. However, in the Augusta GA area there is no one that carries your product. Anyways, looking to do a 300blk build the cool thing about the XCR L is that it will only need a new barrel which I am guessing you all may be able to provide for about 350 bucks or so. In todays market there is really nothing like your systems.

I think Silvers is right. I don't see the full length barrel working I will try a mini when I get time. I'm shipping my first 10" .300 BLK to a customer this weeks whose been pestering me. He can test it and give a report.
It does work and I can make them in 7.5 to 10" and maybe longer. This is for the XCR-L.

It seems like the XCR-M is lighter than most AR-10s? Is this true?

The M is pretty light. Most of the weight is in the barrel. A heavy, long barrel will get the weight up there around 9.5 lbs. or more. The 13" and 16" light are really light. I have been shooting a 13" heavy barreled version. The Weight of that configuration is 8 lbs. 2 oz. Thats not too shabby. The neat thing is that it's controllable.
