Grendel as a Universal Infantry Cartridge

[LR1955]

The Army just renewed the secrecy order on the Gila Defense Systems rifle technology. It eats away at my soul that I can't discuss how easy it would be to turn the 6.5 grendel into a wrecking machine. The Army is clearly going down a different path based on all the information posted here. In fact a recent letter from the undersecretary of the Army to the patent office states their work on armor defeating technology predates ours by two years is more mature and proven. As such they won't even test ours. Stinks to high heaven but its all coming to a head this year. Here's a teaser. We just did a level one GDS enhancement for FN on their 57x28 pistol round. Only shot at clay to prove a point around soft target effectiveness.

"The Army is going down a different path based on all the information posted here."????

Something tells me that the Army isn't making its decisions on small arms ammo based on the Grendel forum.

Lets see something proving the Army or DoD has implemented a 'secrecy order' on Gila ammo.

If you say something like "it is a secret and we can't tell you", then you are violating it by posting your pictures. Those would also be restricted if DoD somehow classified your technology.
