grendel, inc.

Has anyone ever hear of Grendel, Inc.? I am at a local gun show and there is a pistol supposedly 6.5 and a 22 manufactured by them. No way would I purchase but I am curious.

Grendel, inc became KelTec if I remember correctly. They made a little pistol called the Grendel. They show up on gunbroker from time to time. They may also have made other firearms, but none in 6.5 that I am aware of.

Thanks.

In a sense, I think Grendel Inc evolved into what is now Kel-Tec. If not the company, perhaps the pistol design.

That is an awesome little pistol!! I would buy one! If it functioned as well as any of the Glocks, XD's, M&P's, HK's and what ever else a LEO will swear by to keep for a back up.

Also the Grendel's P30 is what Keltec's PMR30 is designed after.

It was a 22 and the guy stated that the company did become kel-tec.

I have an old Grendel .380. It's an interesting paperweight, because it's worthless as a weapon.
Well, maybe it could be used as a club.

I have a Kel-Tec pf-9 that looks similar just a little better fit and finish. I love that little pistol. Never a single malfunction whatsoever, and 7 rounds of 9mm is a lot of firepower in such a small gun!
