    I think a micro action SVD-ish rifle would be really cool.

      I agree. I think it is great that Serbia is pushing against the grain (of what every other Army is still doing) by going with the 6.5 Grendel as a multipurpose combat cartridge. I hope this opens up the military industry by coming up with more products and that more militaries around the world consider it as well. Seems like a win-win in many cases.

        Serbia exports lots of small-arms, so It may spread. Also their guns are a lot cheaper than western guns, and I suspect also Russian guns.
        I read something about a PKM costing something like 1200USD.

          Serbia is cooperating militarily with Azerbaijan, and hopes to sell arms to them. (not mentioning Grendel)

            Looks like they have a quick barrel change system on it too for 7.62x39 and 6.5 Grendel.

              Small militaries with this capability will cause the round's popularity to explode due to jealousy. "Why can't we hit that hard at those ranges with our small arms? Who do these guys think they are?"

                              The different alphabet may explain how the caliber of "Grendel," which has the advantage of being less recoil, while the hose is not wound but connects with trucks using leverage.

                              And how it will "scramble arimije around the world."

                                I have a huge amount of respect for Sneaky, but that's funny.

                                I don't care who you are.
