  • Can the Grendel survive an AR Ban?

    Me, I own 3 non AR Grendels, I think that make me pretty safe from any reasonable ban . But what this thread should ask is something like "If the AR is banned from hunting and at rifle ranges what will you do?" Even if you got 100 magazines and 100K horded rounds if you don't get out and shoot at something from time to time your skill set l will rust away. If you think the 6.5 is about as good as it gets for target shooting and hunting, perhaps one option may be to go with a bolt Grendel for and keep your AR for a rainy day.

    Ive been considering trying to build a bolt action Grendel but WHY should I HAVE to?

        No doubt, give them a finger they'll take off your hand. Hopefully this nonsense will awaken the Sheeple but I wouldnt hold my breath.

          The AR15 will survive in Firearms Freedom States, and probably many others in a worst-case new Federal AWB. Many people will refuse to comply, and they will have the support of their governors, congressmen, and States.

          The next issue becomes inter-state commerce, since most of the AR15 receivers are manufactured in a Firearms Freedom State, while BCG's, barrels, and LPK's are made in other States.

            I hope youre right because this is turning bad real fast. An armed man is a Citizen, an unarmed man is a servant and lets face it our Politicians think we are servants. Let me say it in a language they understand "NYET COMRADES!"

              Will an "assault weapon ban" kill the Grendel?

              Not trying to debate if we will have an AWB.

              Just looking at the future of the 6.5 Grendel round. It was designed to maximize the AR15 platform. If the platform effectively is regulated out of new production, then how do we keep the 6.5 Grendel relevant?

              Let's face it, in bolt action there are simply so many established rounds that the Grendel is not relevant as a bolt action round.

              So how do we keep the 6.5 Grendel growing IF there is an AWB?

                How do we get the message out to combat the misconceptions?

                1. The AR-15 has only one purpose - military combat. Therefore citizens shouldn't have one.
                2. The AR-15 is only a .223 and therefore not a deer rifle.
                3. The 2nd Amendment is to protect your right to hunt.

                  Education, Education, Education! We must educate our fellow Americans.

                  If you've noticed education has gone drastically down hill since the libtards got the federal government involved with it. They don't want to have anything to do with charter schools.

                  I don't believe this is just the inadequacies of a bureaucratic system. The less educated the population is the easier it is to manipulate and for the elite few to hold onto power.

                    Now that Joe Biden has been appointed head of the committee for increased gun laws, who will represent the 2nd Amendment?

                      It will likely go back to the formal definition of an assault weapon, pistol grip, flash hider, collapsible stock, insert other stuff here... Feinstein's approach is "reasonable regulation, but protect 2A rights, we won't take your weapon, but you can't make them, buy them, sell them use them, or transport them". Nice position to be able to negotiate away from.

                        That clown is in charge of increasing gun laws? That's the best news I've heard all week.

                          Having Biden as point man might work in our favor, as he seems to be of very staunch opinion regarding gun control. If they push for another "assault weapons" ban, magazine capacity limits, and the like, pushing that through the House might be a tough task, particularly in light of the Heller decision.

                          However, my concern is that although they might make noise about an "assault weapon" ban to try to distract us, the real effort might be something along the lines of classifying ARs and similar rifles as Title II arms, like machine guns, silencers, etc. I'm convinced they'll be smart about their approach.
