I shot one of these back in '99 but never bought one. Maybe now's my chance?

“The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."
They're still in business? I figured they had gone under. At any rate, their website's not working. Perhaps later...
I saw a video on IG where they said they were going to do a release. Limited numbers, like less than 300. Made from “leftover” or extra parts they had in their warehouse. A few different barrel lengths, the standard and a “top loading” magazine model, IIRC.
I am really interested in this since it is the closest thing I will be able to get to a Stoner 63 (without forking over enough money to buy a nice truck).

So these are made from parts that they spent a decade telling existing customers in need of repairs didn’t exist? Brilliant.
I had one back in the early 00's. It ran fine but I don't think it had a chrome lined barrel. One thing I do remember about it was that all of the threaded parts had to be regularly tightened. I never got around to loc-tight-ing it before selling it for lack of use.
It seemed like a well built go-to-war rifle but my present SOCOM barreled AR does everything better, lighter and cheaper.
Id be extremely cautious before I would hand over money to a company that said " nope, no no more spare parts around here." then somehow found enough parts to reintroduce new, complete guns.Hard pass on this! FWIW, I predict we will see major issues, along with excuses from Robinson, with them even getting the spare/replacement parts they decide to sell to current owners of M96s.
I really wish someone had done an exact clone of the 63.

“The Trump Doctrine is ‘We’re America, Bitch.’ That’s the Trump Doctrine.”
"He is free to evade reality, he is free to unfocus his mind and stumble blindly down any road he pleases, but not free to avoid the abyss he refuses to see."
It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.
Chuck, we miss ya man.
