RCI History

Roth Concept Innovations, LLC (RCI, XrailByRCI and Roth Performance) was founded by Mark and Cyndi Roth with the mission to provide a cost effective solution to the never ending capacity problem for the shotgun platform.

Our first product line, the XRAIL Systems, was conceived in 2006.  The inventor, Mark Roth, designed, patented and trademarked it.  The design was then prototyped, tested and re-engineered to lower the weight to the gun, without compromising the durability and reliability.

The XRAIL (full and compact model) was first manufactured by RCI in September 2009 and given to a test market.  In January 2010, a revised version was manufactured and launched to the public for sale at the 2010 SHOT SHOW.  In 2012 we brought to market the Integrated XRAIL that is gun and all and 26 rounds.  We’ve since retired all versions of XRAIL Systems but have prototyped, tested and then brought to market many more products by Roth Concept Innovations.

In 2018 we Re-Branded as Roth Performance in order to fully encompass and better reflect the wide range of Performance products now designed and manufactured by RCI. Same Company, Same Owners, Same Great Products.

All Roth Performance products are made in the USA and Patented.

Roth Performance’s mission is to make shotguns run at their top performance for the task, from military and law enforcement, to snow goose hunting, to competitive shooting.  Whether you need high quality products or you need your gun raced up from Roth Performance Shop Custom Gunsmithing that can open your port to make loading a breeze, add sling attachment cups, add sights or lighten your trigger, Roth Performance has a solution.

Roth Concept Innovations, LLC (Roth Performance) is an innovation company that develops new firearm products to solve problems or improves existing firearm products.  RCI also has a Roth Performance Shop that manufactures custom shotguns.

From military and law enforcement, hunting to competitive shooting, if you need extra rounds in your shotgun (for less lethal such as crowd control or to shave time off your score in a competition match) or accessories, Roth Performance has the solution.

Our clients are anyone who loves the second amendment, no matter if our products are used in their jobs, for play or to keep food on their table.  In particular; home owners wanting security, hunters (particularly Snow Goose hunters),  military and law enforcement, and our main clientele is our competitive shooters.

It wasn’t long after that that he started competing in the sport of 3 gun. 3 gun is now his main focus, with USPSA supplementing the pistol practice and every shotgun match he can attend for honing his shotgunning skills.

Rush Roth

Our newest Roth Performance team member, Rush Roth has been shooting with his mom and dad for years but needed to get big enough to shoot his long guns without a bench.  In 2016 at 11 years old, Rush is starting to compete in 3 gun competitions at a local level.  Since he was still vertically challenged, he couldn’t always reach all the ports but he is extremely accurate and has great safety awareness.  It won’t be long and he will be competing nationally.  He also enjoys pheasant hunting and deer hunting.
