EPOXY. lots of epoxy. maybe some machined metal. and a tube. A long aluminum tube with an end cap.

Ya know, That's a sexy looking weapon right there. You'll need a 7.62 style receiver and mags...

well... ive seen a person do that using a four cell maglight body, and a short length of iron pipe... and the stock should be easily made using an m16 full stock and epoxy molding. good luck.

Did some research, all I could find was a website of Alexander Arms, which had a bunch of guns that they were calling "6.5 Grendel" weapons. Could not find that weapon in the list, but a couple really sexy rifles were in there.

Back on topic though, looks cool. Could be a fun project, keep us updated.

the weapon is in 6.5mm thinking of using PVC for the Silencer, a m16 stock vietnam Mag and maybe the body from a m4 or vietnam m-16

The gun is chambered in a short 7.62mm, not the 6.5 Grendel.

There isn't a whole lot of info on the web, but here's a bit of info.

I'll check my book the pic is from it. I think the Book said it was a 6.5 Grendel round but the book is kinda out of date. http://www.65grendel.com/

The 6.5 Grendel is not a gun. It is a CARTRIDGE.

Well we know SOMETHING is called a Grendel. It looks like that page on Alexander Arms is about the Grendel cartridge, not the rifle. Seeing as they're selling barrel/bolt combos for it. And I'm pretty sure the S-16 Grendel predates the Grendel cartridge, seeing as the website says the cartridge was first shown in '03...

I dug up another pic, looks like the same thing with a different stock on it. Might even be the source photo for that picture of yours?

And really, does it matter how it's chambered? It's still going to shoot 6mm. :P

Yeah, but the point is that it will look different. I think because the Grendel s16 is chambered for a necked down 7.62, he could get away with a 5.56 style receiver and mags, but in reality the receiver on the reel steal is custom.

There isn't a whole lot of info on the internet, so he could probably get away with just about anything...

by **Sixxgun** » Tue Jan 06, 2009 3:31 pm

Khaos the S16 was a 6.5 not 7.62 the 6.5 is a necked down 7.62 anyway

BTW how Long is the m16a1 or A2 inner barrel from the end of the body to the flash hider?
