In this video you will see full-auto's, semi-auto's, some custom rifles,
even the new MKA 1919 12ga shotgun. Plus, you'll see me shooting with Ken Hackathorn and helping Marc Krebs test out some interesting new prototype rifles. I shot this in Ohio at a private gathering of of gun nuts last weekend and it's worth watching.  |

Not even sure what to think about that shotgun, cool but hideous

Short of the why not factor what is the advantage of the ak in 6.5 vs the round in say an ar?

Quoted: Not even sure what to think about that shotgun, cool but hideous Yeah, it's unique. I was excited to have the opportunity to see one as they have just started coming into the country. I will try to get a closer look at them once they're officially available. I hear some things might change on them, so we'll see. But it's super light weight and the recoil is surprisingly mild. It's nice having familiar controls. But there is a lot of plastic on it. |

Quoted: Short of the why not factor what is the advantage of the ak in 6.5 vs the round in say an ar? Some folks, like me, like AK's. You'll see the next evolution of the rifle in a future video. Marc will come out to my property to do some more testing here in a few weeks and we're going to try out some different hand guards and a new stock. He'll also have a nice match trigger in it this time, the rifle had a standard AK trigger in it during our testing in this video. I'm thinking it's pretty darn cool. I like new and unconventional things, especially when they work as well as this rifle seems to. Everyone modifies AR's, so it's refreshing to see a well thought out and well built AK solution. |

Awesome! Simply awesome. I love it when people push the envelope of a rifle platform. Really cool stuff.

I might buy one just for those ghetto-bling fake gems!(quiet retching sound can be heard) I know it's Turkey and all and they do things a little differently over there... but what were they thinking?

Thanks for the vid FAC, I am definitely interested in buying a krebs in 6.5 grendal. Marc Krebs does fantastic work, and I absolutely adore my KTR-03s.

Always fun training with Ken. Not bad on the 1-5... Not sure about a 6.5 AK but different strokes for different folks I guess.

Ken loaned me a Safariland SLS which was new to me and of course I botched the unlocking. To remedy that, I've ordered a ALS system, something I've been meaning to do for some time. I want to do a comparison video between it and the SERPA. |

One more thing I should mention. Wolf has confirmed that they will be importing steel cased 6.5 ammo for a case price of.
Ready? $189 They say it will be hitting our shores later this year. |

Nicely done video!
Looks like Marc has been hard at work on his Grendel projects. Be interesting to see what his Grendel AK will do at distance. The first prototype I shot did not group nearly as well as 100 yards as the piece you played with. Wolf has already finished their first production run of 6.5mm Grendel steel cases, so loaded ammo should be coming fairly soon! |

Considering I'm paying about $189 for 1,000 of 7.62x39 right now it doesn't seem all that far off.

Great video great editing, I really like the things Mark Krebs is doing, I read the articles in the G&A Book of the AK about his new works. Love that super nice Ohio range. Machine gun shoot was cool. Nice pistol shoot class.
That AR type shotgun is really neat.

We're heading out to do some shooting again here in a week or so and I'll have a chance to do some more shooting with the 6.5 with some recent improvements and also it's looking like I might get some trigger time on another new prototype that has me pretty excited. Of course, I'll post the video here. |

Quoted: a 6.5 grendel AK (or sig) would be nice, if the ammo was affordable How does $189 per case sound? Wolf confirmed that they will be importing it this summer. It is really coming. It's already in production and we're just a couple of months from it being on shelves, or so they say. This is for steel cased ammo which would be ideal for target practice. But you can always reload the good stuff for target shooting too. |

6.5 for $189 a case is low enough that I would consider buying an upper in that caliber.
