There are more XCR's out there than SCARS . For a company 1\10th the size of FN they continue to produce rifles of various styles and caliber conversions. My experience with them has been positive and they are not as backloged with orders since the craze has died down...most find the XCR's balance and handeling supierior to the ar platform. As for sig, It took them years to get it right with the 556, and many feel the quality just isnt as good as older sig products..
