I sent the following E-mail Message to Desert Tech Marketing Manager, Seth Ercanbrack:
"Dear Mr. Ercanbrack:
"I'll take this opportunity to applaud your superb presentation of the all-new Desert Tech Micro Dynamic Rifle (MDR), at the January, 2014 SHOT Show. That highly-anticipated introduction has since created shock waves of excitement, throughout the Internet.
"A long-time Bullpup Enthusiast and recent 6.5mm Grendel advocate, I'm encouraged upon noting the uncommon demand for this outstanding 21st Century combo:
"Bullpup Forum: Desert Tech MDR - Which caliber do you want this in?
.308 Winchester - 50.4 %
.223/5.56x45mm - 12 %
.300 AAC Blackout - 6.4 %
7.62x39mm Russian - 7.2 %
6.8mm Remington SPC - 3.2 %
6.5mm Grendel - 13.6 % (http://bullpupforum.com/index.php?topic=5206.0).
"New from Desert Tech: MDR Bullpup, January 21, 2014, Readers' Comments:
'Kinda shocked Desert Tech wouldn't have a 6.5 Grendel conversion planned.';
'I would definitely like to see one of these in 6.5 Grendel.';
'I was thinking the same thing. Why not just cancel the 6.8 SPC and replace it with the 6.5 Grendel.' (http://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/201...h-mdr-bullpup/).
"Snipers Hide Forum: Desert Tech MDR Readers' Comments:
'The absence of the 6.5 Grendel in the lineup was a significant disappointment.';
'. . . A Grendel kit from DT would be a great addition as well.';
'I think one of the points to make with Desert Tech is that the 6.5 Grendel is still a potent cartridge out of a 16.5" barrel.';
'Am also hoping for a Grendel version. My go-to, do-it-all truck gun is a 14.5" Grendel.'
(http://forum.snipershide.com/snipers...ts-here-2.html).
"In view of the above, can Bullpup'ers expect Desert Tech to include the can-do 6.5mm Grendel, in their MDR lineup for 2015 (http://deserttech.com/mdr.php)?
"Thank you for your consideration.
"Sincerely,"
