ROBAR teased us with this photo of their PolymAR-15 Ti . They're reporting their rifle weighs just 4.75-pounds with sub-MOA performance and an estimated MSRP $1995. We're guessing part of the cost is due to the replacement of most, if not all, steel parts with titanium parts, we'll have to see.
UPDATE: Robar just shared the highlights of their parts list with us. They let us know that the list is a work in progress, and a they may swap some parts before the rifle hits the market.
