Our survey says, "it is a real deal." Glock has built and designed a rifle and it shoots the 5.56.

I like the quick-detach rail on it. You can actually clean the exterior of the barrel that way. The adjustable gas system is a cool feature, too. If it's real, I wouldn't mind one.

Designed a rifle? Looks more like they designed a few parts that make their version of someone else’s 60+ year old “design” slightly different from all the others.

It was all aftermarket shit on a possibly Glock stamped lower... Go build one now and slap a Glock lower on it if they ever release them for public consumption.

Looks like a MAGPUL stock and maybe a Bravo Company? grip.
Heck, I've built a few Franken Guns myself (y)
So besides the Logo, which part is GLOCK?
The patent for the one part. 😆

Just what we need. A bunch of assholes asking AR owners, "Does it take Glock mags?".

The price and brainwashed fan base.

Is that quick-detach forend an aftermarket part, along with the adjustable gas block? I have a couple of uppers I have to put barrels on, one of which still needs a barrel, forend, BCG and gas tube. If that stuff really is available, then I know what I need to buy.

I think military barrels have a smaller orifice because they use 5.56 vs .223. Civilian barrels I think has a bigger hole if I remember Chris Bartocci's teachings right. Maybe they opened the hole up and put the adjustable block on there to tune it. Probably not necessary unless you just want to spend the money.

It's probably Glock's designed and built parts. Them boys up there just love to trash Glock. Much is deserved on the pistols.

I bet we could find them if we looked hard enough.

I like the idea of adjustable blocks because it's good when you can minimize the amount of force on the receiver when the weapon cycles. Also, I do want to put a can on the rifle one day, and tuning the gas flow down helps with the back pressure.

Quite potentially.

One other thing I was thinking this Glock AR might have is a CHF barrel. The Europeans are usually more inclined to use that kind of manufacturing process than we are.
No telling since it's a government contract. They do with their pistol barrels so I don't see why they wouldn't continue the process with rifle barrels.

Just seems like a really bad time for them to finally jump in to the AR market. I watched a bunch of idiots insist the Brits would never switch to an AR platform but I knew better than to point out how they've used the AR/M16/M4 platforms from damn near day one. Almost lost it when someone posted a picture of an SAS guy with a C8 and someone else insisted C7's and C8's aren't M16's because they were made in Canadia by Colt.

It was a welcome break to watching several other idiots argue that 357 was a caliber because magnum and sig were manufacturers.
