Weight creep is much like task creep. The original goal became clear over time and the final result was never intended. Remember the original US Infantry Board design specification for M-14? It weighs less than 6 pounds. We failed. The early M16 entered at 6. 3 pounds unloads but it is still 3 pounds lighter than the m14.
The M16 is packed with 120 rounds loaded in their respective magazines and weighs only 58% of the m14. Light weight is a key factor in the adoption of M16 and AR15. Then, the weight crawls up its ugly head. Through AR-You will find 15 directories today. Weighing starts in about 6-15 modelsFor some highly refined target models, 1/2, to 10 pounds.
The more Picatinny rails added on the platform, the more publicly it invites weight packaging using optical attractions, magnifying glasses, lasers, lights, infrared illuminators, night vision devices —you name it. If it can be screwed to the Picatinny track, it will swing like a brick. So how do we restore some dynamic processing quality of these early AR without sacrificing the fatal modular capabilities provided by the railwayInstallation accessories? Robar in Phoenix, Arizona, has lost its store of advanced gun design and looked at the weight –And put forward an excellent solution. In doing so, they scraped a full pound from the existing AR platform. Their solution is radical, but now there are two prototypes that have digested 5 rounds of 47,000 rounds and 53,000 rounds.
56mm NATO did not have hiccups in destructive durability tests, respectively. What Robar does is replace the forging and processing aluminum upper and lower parts of AR with the upper and lower parts made of proprietary fiberglassEnhanced polymer. Key wear and bearing points–Like a fire system. down pivots–Reinforced with a steel plug-in inserted into the receiver wall. Called Dorma-15.
There are four current models in the Robar polymer receiver series (We tested 14 of them. 5 and 16-inch versions): A lightweight, 5. 25-With a 14 pound Carbine gun. 5-16-inch barrelinch-Bucket version weighing 5. 75 pounds on my sun scale, an 18-inch-Barrelea rifle and 10 pistol.

-Available components, including the previousEnd, stock, handle, gas block, charging handle and QD receiver end plate of Bravo’s Mfg, front and rear view of Magpul, Carbine gun receiver buffer tube of POF. Robar then adds additional enhancements that are not available in other company products. One of the Robar companies–Coating Technology Co. , Ltd. –Known worldwide for its NP3 coating expertise.
It is considered that NP3 is a chemical nickel coating containing subMicron particles of Teflon (PTFE). The coating is hard, durable, corrosion resistant, accurate in size and self-containedLubrication when the Teflon particles in the matrix are exposed. This is an ideal gun coating where Robar makes the most of the NP3 technology in their polymer15 lines on key parts, including complete Bolt bracket groups, trigger assemblies, bolt snap rings, magazine clips and buttons, safety or selector, and other small parts such as putter. The NP3-The coated parts are truly lubricated for life. Although the bolt carrier set for testing the carbine gun was electrically made with a thin layer of sealing coating 1, I suspect NP3-The coated BCG unit greatly reduces the Wear you expect from your backand-The fourth reciprocating metal part within the polymer receiver.
Another lasting benefit of NP3 coated parts is that they are easy to clean. The dirt will not be embedded on the surface of the coating and wiped immediately. When the carbine was removed from the factory-I immediately felt it was a really different deal with AR. Not only is it a pound lighter than a typical AR carbine gun, but it has different dynamics. The BCM fore-End around the pencilThin profile barrel slim, decorative while offering unlimited KeyMod options for positioning accessories, as well as three short Picatinny rails.
The weight of this polymer receiver Carbine gun is better distributed in your hands. Although lighter, it feels more stable. The red dot or holographic scene sitting on the rail will be as fast as a cat. I soon knew how fast it was. Radical optical system packaged with 14.
5-Inch Robar is the light of the lepol de cabine gun (LCO)And their revolution {Optical enhancement (D-EVO). LCO is an advanced red-Point optics with very wide field-of-1-crisp sceneryMOA dot and 60 MOA with altitude and wind resistance adjustment. The D-The EVO is a 6x 20mm range mounted on any red rearEliminating point optics for auxiliary, flip requirementsup or flip-in magnifiers. To put it simply, the shooter can see the red dots superimposed on the target at the same time, as well as the target 6X image with 5. 56/7.

In more detail, the imageD-gathering lensEVO is about 90-Degree on the right side of the eyepiece. It basically looks to the right side of Reddot optic. The image is displayed in D-EVO eyepiece in half shape-The Moon and the field visually located below-of-View of the red dot window.

Each click, there are 50 altitude and wind conditioning MOA that can be calibrated with l/10 mil.
The vertical stadia is marked at 300, 400, 500 and 600 with the numbered scale of the punch and is slightly tilted to compensate for the range offset. There are 10 ana winds 20 miles an hour-The off scale displayed for each range, as well as the horizontal and vertical milliradian scale for size and distance calculation. In short, le is full of features without being too cluttered. I found the LCO/D-of lupode-EVO combo easy-to-Use and intuitive. With the widespread adoption of Aimpoint CompM4/M4s red by the military-Point optics, D-If it turns out to be tough enough, the EVO will be the perfect complement to precision optics for our troops.
On the other hand, if a shooter has not yet invested and married a red man,Dot optic is a more traditional, complex and lighter bright pole line alternative with a high rating mark of 6 1-6x 20mm tactical range with lighting, bullet drop compensation le and focus on the front focal plane. Either way, they are made in the US and come with a lifetime warranty from Leupold.

Thanks to D-EVO optic, range results with me before 16-inch-barreled model. By the way, federal 77-Grain matching load is not a printing error. Although its factory is rated at 2,720 fps, 2,449 fps is delivered on a monthly basis-Barrels from 14 inches and 2,355 fps. 5-inch barrel.
