Alternatives to the AR15 that make you go Hummm.

you should compare this to the PWS UXR

…and for a mere $2500 you too can have one.😂

wait so the xcr is basically an ak in an ar form factor lol

Rifles are just rifles. The AR-15 is a Modular Weapons System. I will buy a dozen more AR-15's before I buy any other designs. Currently saving up for a FIGHTLITE Belt Fed upper for my next AR-15 build.

I like the CMMG Dissent mk4 myself.

Looked at thumbnail, haven't watched video yet. Better than the AR, and it's blurred out… So here in the comments to guess, about the only thing i can think of that is close and "duty ready" is probably the Bren3. Lets see if i was right.

EDIT:
Ah the XCR. Yea that's a good one too, i think i would still prefer the Bren3 if i was spending that sorta money on something "not an ar".

"Not an AR15 but still a good rifle" Good idea.

I always liked the XCR but never bought one due to the behind the scenes shenanigans with Mr. Robinson himself. God help you if you buy an XCR and have a problem with it.

I got one: how about an AR-10?? Lol.

nothing matters till a sand and mud test are performed on it.

Would love to see more alternatives

The demand for HK416's will never end but they're so goddamn expensive and HK is German import law cucked for eternity.

Love my ARs, but my favorite 5.56 rifle is currently my Bren 2. My favorite rifle in general is my 9 inch .300 blackout MCX.

AR 15 is the best rifle in world history. It's still the one to beat. End of discussion!

The AR 15 wont be replaced until something other than humans are the likely enemy.

Please make that series!!!!

The Robinson XCR is my dream rifle. A little over a year ago I bought one in 5.56 and an extra barrel in 300BLK. Worth every penny. (and it looks amazing in OD green)

14:00 I always steer clear of people who think this way. Just because there's no rule of law doesn't mean that murdering people in cold blood will become any more acceptable than it is now. People who think differently are just projecting their own narcissistic power fantasies on society.

id like to see the videos of its not a AR but just as good!!! you do great videos, thanks for sharing with us!!

I heard about the XCR years ago, and over time pretty much forgot about it. Super video, thanks.

The descriptions on Robinson Armament are terrible. They are written for an 18 year old who thinks "all metal" is indicative of quality. It appears that it is more closely related to the AKM operating system. Almost like a modern QBZ variant… Time will tell but I do not believe that they will revolutionize the market.

Robinson Armament is a terrible company with terrible customer service.

ACR

Always liked the idea of the XCR!

There is nothing better for the money than the AR. Even if you argue that 5.56 isn't the best intermediate cartridge i bet whatever cartridge you think is best can be chambered in a AR. I own a 300blk, 6.5 Grendel, 7.62×39 AR and am building a 6mm ARC, 22 ARC. I also will get a 6mm Max upper as well. That's not even getting into the straight wall cartridges 350 Legend, 450 Bushmaster and 50 Beowolf. I also am building a AR-10 lower to put a Genesis 12 on which is 12ga for crying out loud. There really isn't anything better. Edit: just forgot i built a 5.7x28mm for my son for Xmas and that thing runs great. Other than the BCG, magazine and barrel that thing is standard AR using AR recievers and buffer system.

the one that doesn't get you killed

40 S&W is superior in power/effectiveness to 9 mm Parabellum given the same bullet construction. But, sure, you only get to carry 12 rounds instead of 15. Because, that really matters in real world self defense scenarios.

I've always wanted a Robinson, and just started looking at them again as a potential Christmas gift to myself.
But dang they're not cheap, I guess more OT it is.

bring back a real AR180

WE NEED BUDGET AKs similar in price to BUDGET ARs!!!

you are an out of touch hack

CZ's Bren rifles are also nice.

My choice: plasma phase rifle in 40 watt range/ M134D as side arm

Please show more alternatives.

The east really needs to be stop being scared of aluminium. This is very updated ak-ish.

You can give away to me any .40S&W firearms and or ammo to me. I have no problem with the .40S&W. Sure, it can’t do anything the 9mm an .45 can’t do which means it can do the same as they can which still makes it useful. So just let me know when you have everything packed up and ready to go and I’ll come pick it all up.

I've got my nice AR, a nice shotgun, and a very nice bolt gun….now I'm just waiting for the Bren 3 and all the caliber/barrel option to make it to America because I simply think it's fun.

I would love a series on alternatives to the AR-15

Almost anything is better than the AR15.
Unfortunately, there is much more weight in the argument of "mass adoption"

I agree.
