Grendel s-16

[Khaos]

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

I stand corrected. I've finally taken the time to clear up the conflicting reports on the chambering. Yes, it shoots a Grendel, which fires a 6.5mm bullet from a 7.62mm casing necked down to the same length as a 5.56.

Here's a picture of the Grendel 6.5 round for anyone who cares.



What I'm saying is that the bullet (and thus the mag, and the receiver) is wider than a standard 5.56mm, yet the same length, so there won't be any mags out there with the same dimensions. I think you're correct in using a 5.56mm receiver, as it will look closer to the real thing than using the 7.62.

It took a lot of digging to clarify all the shit that was posted in various places, and I apologize for not doing the research the first time.

no problems I got it from a book the Secruity arm site don't work for me for some reason

[Khaos]

That's just about the only site that I can find it. Which book? It would be a great mod to do with some spare parts.

I'm considering swapping out the plastic body on an E1 M16a4, and I might use that for something along these lines. The fact that the barrel looks so easy to build is a plus.

[Sixxgun]

going to do it when I can get a M16 but the books Sniper Rifles of the world or something like that

[LiquidSnak]

the alexander arms 6.5 chambered AR style rifle is a standard AR lower, with a 6.5 chambered upper, bolt, and bolt carrier group.

[Khaos]

So he could indeed use a standard AR type AEG when building his Grendel.

^ Exactly.

Same with the .50 Beowulf I'm working on.

Ah SWEEET.

[Sixxgun]

looking around for a m-16 right now

[TJ]

The parent case of the 6.5 Grendel is the 6mm PPC, whose parent case is the .220 Russian, whose parent case is the 7.62x39mm...confusing isn't it?

[Sixxgun]

Will these work on a echo1 m-16/m4??? there made by King Arms / Matrix G16

[LiquidSnak]

Yes, and they are surprisingly good for the price.

[Sixxgun]

Sweet that's a good one more part for the gun
Update: going to go with a M4 instead of m-16 but will need a m16 buttstock, and nam Magazine

[Sixxgun]

Think I'm going to run on some snags here with the Silencer (just going over plans) were the barrel conects to the body

[PanzerFaust]

Could ditch the delta ring, jbweld the integrated suppressor to the barrel nut so it slides over the outter barrel, and threads onto the receiver itself.
