    Lancer 6mm ARC/ 6.5 grendel mags

    Heard a rumor Lancer is working on a hybrid 6mm arc/ grendel mag.

    Anybody else heard are seen anything about this?

    They're located about 20 minutes away from me. Might have to look into it.

      I was in the shop for TangoDown about a month back. They also had some ARC ammo and were tasked with designing a new mag/follower. I offered him up a Grendel mag too if he wanted to piggyback the project.

      I have one of their 223 mags and have never had a problem with it.

          Agreed. I sent a email as well but haven't heard back yet, Sunday and all.

          This you can bet your butt on if Lancer was to bring out their hybrid mag design in grendel/arc. It wouldn't be six months before magpul would release a grendel/arc mag.

            I sure hope this is true. These mags should be the perfect combination of weight and toughness for the ARC/Grendel case. If they can leave some small margin for longer seated OAL, even better.

              Precision Reflex Industries (PRI) manufacture a 6.8 SPC magazine that get good reviews. A couple of forum members have used the 6.8 mag in the 6.5 Grendel without issue. I sent an email to PRI suggesting they introduce a magazine for the 6.5 Grendel/6 ARC. PRI advertise their 6.8 SPC magazine also functions with the 224 Valkyrie and 22 Nosler. PRI magazines are pricey but apparently good quality.

                  I've been asking them for the past 5 SHOT Shows to make a Grendel mag.

                  50,000 units seems to be what it will take to get them interested.

                      Neither did I.

                        I got an Email from them July 27 saying they didn't have any plans now. If they did they would put it on their social media outlets
