I know we have a few members here with high-round-count XCR's, so why not a thread for posting pics of of them. Post pics to show what parts are holding up well and what parts are showing wear, are broken and/or need replacement, along with your round count and rounds since cleaning.

Mine is like Terra said ,i stopped counting on the older one a long time ago.
They will out last your Wallet in 223 i will say that.
On my internals the Metal looks fine ,the finish is long gone but that's about it.
The Alloy in the receiver is now just a fine polish , no gaulding our anything like that.
It has the old gas block ,set at 2 , and is still my rifle of choice.
Because it works!!!

Pius: It is not a fair comparison if you put the internals of an XCR up against the internals of an AR because they are two different beasts regardless of which one you clean and which one you run dirty. The only way to compare is to shoot two XCRs, one cleaned at intervals and one dirty. Both rifles must have the same gas block (newer or older), run on the same setting, and run the same amount and type of ammo through both. Then you can get an accurate picture of internal wear.

I saw that rifle when I picked mine up back in 2006, Alex said it has thousands of rounds through it at the time and it looked almost new to me. It had the normal wear you get on the internals but it didn't look like it had been to hell and back. In fact, if I remember correctly it was wearing a 7.62x39 barrel with some franken-mag. That was the rifle he used to show me how easy it was to change calibers.
