Glock AR 15

[americanwolfman]

If this gets 100 percent verified this will be the number 1 selling AR in the country.

Breaking: Glock AR-15 Photos Have Been Leaked!

[Shawn17]

Another firearm from Glock “perfection” that people cant wait to modify because its utter junk in stock form… Of course they do have a solid foothold in the Lego style guns.

[Jerzy]

I’ll be like the Apostle Thomas… I refused to believe until I can see and touch it…

I’m wondering if Lone Wolf has all parts already stored and ready to ship?

[americanwolfman]

Did you a actually watch the video on the features or are you making a assumption?

[Shawn17]

Im being a sarcastic smart ass about it because im not a fan of Glock or AR style rifles. I gotta get my digs when I can.

[Sinbad]

I have a Glock and an AR. But I can still enjoy watching you have a good time with your digs! If we can’t laugh at one another or ourselves we are in trouble.

[mattm]

To be the number one seller, they’ll have to make a civilian version. I wonder how much of this would actually be produced by Glock, similar to my question regarding most AR manufacturers (assemblers… Looking at you, Colt )
One plus for Daniel Defense imo is their in-house production. I like my Glocks, but their metal working seems to be limited. Plastic, that’s another story
I started off yawning, but their gas system and qd rail is interesting…still, what’s this now, AR 15 brand number 200.??..

[americanwolfman]

@mattm

I like my Glocks, but their metal working seems to be limited

Im not sure i follow on how they are limited?

They have been manufacturing their pistols for 35 years. Are they setup on the scale of orher companies to produce rifles? Probably not, at least yet. If they are trying to get the British contract i would think they would be able to handle the production in house.

Most modern manufacturers also know the biggest buyers are civilians. I would almost guarantee that there are already plans of a civilian version ready to go especially if the military contract falls through they will want to recoup their investment in R&D and the patents they filed. Civilians have been begging for a carbine from them for years, what is one if the greatest most popular handgun of all time? The 19.

There are a literal ton of fanboys out there that will eat that up day of release.

[mattm]

Well, what metal do you have on a Glock? A barrel, turning/milling. Slide, milling, both going through heat treat process I’d imagine.
… Do they make their own or are they outsourced? Glock slide release, cheapest piece of stamped metal imaginable. Locking block, trigger housing, frame rails, trigger connecter etc…stamped. Springs, pretty sure those are outsourced. Safety doo-dads, extractor etc, mim (metal injected molding) in appearance to me, and the fact aftermarket offers machined parts seems to support this. AR platform, castle nuts, receivers, rails, triggers, BCG,buffers etc are metal. The furniture being Magpul was already mentioned, sights as well. Have yet to see any threading on a Glock, or a screw.
This gun was designed for a British contract per the vid, has full auto switch (ambi, can’t miss it), and host mentioned it perhaps going for US LE, as well as Brit mil…
I’d imagine a civilian version would be released, but this ain’t it.
Fwiw, when Colt had the M16/M4 government contract…I inspected the upper and lower receivers…but didn’t work at Colt. When I did work at Colt, the smartest engineer I knew said “you’re a slave to your vendor” meaning what they ship is what you get. He mentioned this after I rejected yet another purchase. Sadly, most companies adopted this approach, and lost in-house control of their product. As mentioned, this is why I like Daniel Defense. Aero Precision as well, aerospace shop turned gun manufacturer. POF another one, former head (rip Frank) aerospace engineer who understood how to maintain quality. Glock, like and trust mine, but realize a company hyping the G45 and releasing it before it was ready would have me waiting a year or two before buying a totally new offering of theirs, especially when so many solid AR manufacturers are out there.
Edit to add… thinking about how Glocks are mainly plastic, and my pleasant surprise buying an M&P and seeing the plastic frame encases at least some metal.
Your opening comment got changed with your follow up. I responded “this ain’t it” to your initial comment…if we ever truly got our rights back, well, I’d let you cut in line, right behind me
Employee discount, anyone? Got offered that at Colt when I almost went back lol…
https://jobs.glock.at/programme/onlinebewerbung_uebersicht.asp?template=1

[Nathan57]

I reckon Glock manufacturers more metal by tonnage into barrels than Daniel Defense does

[mattm]

Yeah, and so what’s your point? How many flash supressors, tapered barrels, nuts, bolts, BCG’ s, finished receivers, buffer tubes or hand guards has Glock made?
Pretty sure that’s why they’re on that hiring binge I linked.

[DS-1]

So, what are we talking here? 5.56 mm Tupperware to go with your .40 cal Tupperware?

Edit: Don’t get me wrong, I have some Tupperware too.

[Nathan57]

That I don’t believe Glocks’ metal working to be all that limited. That I don’t believe a flash hider, nuts, bolts, etc, are likely to be particularly difficult to make for a firearms manufacturer as established and Glock.

And also that I doubt most AR manufacturers make things like flash hiders, nuts, bolts, etc, all in house anyway

How many current AR manufacturers make their own bolts? I’m pretty sure not even BCM does. Will Glock make their own? I don’t know the answer to that. Do they have to? I’d say no absolutely not, not if they don’t want to

[Robert1364]

Jesus said to Thomas; “blessed are those that don’t see, yet still believe.”

[Jerzy]

…and… where is the Glock AR15?
Has anyone been blessed since October 2022?

[Robert1364]

I am a Glock guy for sure, but I never even heard about a Glock AR until I signed up here. Good job of staying current with gun news imo.

[Jerzy]

People are making up stories for recognition and / or likes.
Their creativity “made” Glock 1911 and Glock AR15 … fortunately the Company is consistent in doing the stuff it has been manufacturing perfectly for last 40 years.

[americanwolfman]

So i made up story about a fake gun?

Glock Confirms the Existence of the AR-15 Glock Carbine

LONDON, UK -(Ammoland.com)- Glock has confirmed to AmmoLand News that the pictures that set the Internet on fire of the AR-15 style Glock carbine are real.

“Glock is always in development of future products and technologies through the pursuit of perfection,” Ainsley Cash Conner, Communications Manager for Glock, told AmmoLand News. “The image shared is of a product developed for select solicitations and it is not available for the general market at this time.”

Glock Carbine ~ 1st Look

The images were initially released by British YouTuber Sean Odinson but went unnoticed by the firearms world since the YouTube content creator rarely does firearms videos. Someone involved in the trials then reached out to fellow YouTuber Matt Hoover (CRS Firearms) with more information about the carbine and the individual was able to be verified as working on the project. The source followed Hoover and noticed that he posted a past video about Glock developing a carbine.

Shortly before Hoover released his video, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) released a rolling release of imports that included Glock carbine barrels. This discovery led to widespread speculation that the Glock carbine was coming to the civilian market. Glock, for its part, did not comment on the existence of the firearm.

The Glock carbine designated the GR-115F is in trials with the British Army. The British Army is looking to replace its current SA-80 rifle. The British Royal Marines awarded a contract Colt Canada to replace its existing stock of aging SA-80 rifles with M4-like rifles. It is reported that Glock is up against Knights Armaments (KA) and Lewis Machine and Tool Company (LMT) for the lucrative British contract. However, there could be other companies in the running.

According to the source, the GR-115F is chambered in 5.56 NATO, which is the standard round for all NATO countries. The rifle has a 14.5-inch barrel like the American military’s M4 carbine and an OSS suppressor with a flash hider. The Glock rifle appears to have an impingement gas system. The handguard is marked “Glock,” which indicates the firearms giant makes it. It has an MLOK rail system to allow for easy attachment of accessories. The handguard also has quick detach mounting points for things like slings.

The fire controls on the rifle are ambidextrous with safe, semi-automatic, and automatic settings. The bolt release on the gun is also ambidextrous. The GR-115F also has a Magpul pistol grip and an oversized trigger guard. The firearm is equipped with a standard buffer tube and a Magpul CTR stock.

Glock GR115F Carbine

The rifle the British Army is testing has a variable optic sight to enable soldiers to engage enemies at a distance. The gun is also equipped with Magpul pop-up backup sights. AmmoLand cannot confirm the make or model of the optic sight.

Although Glock has confirmed that the pictures are real, the company said they are for select solicitations and are not available to the general public. It appears any hopes for the Glock carbine to be available to the civilian market will have to wait.

It doesn’t mean that we will never see a semi-automatic version hit selves in the US, but for now, the firearm is just for select contracts.

So what part exactly is Glock actually making? From the looks of things, they are just putting these rifles together from other parts. Is the lower receiver polymer?

Do we really need another foreign firearms manufacturer making an AR-15 platform. especially Glock who seems to always fall short of modern innovation. Is this the official sign that the AR-15 has nothing else to offer, when it comes to modern innovation. You would think that Glock could have at least designed it, without being dependent of the buffer tube. which in my opinion is antiquated, and the biggest flaw in the AR-15 & Ar-10/308 platforms. besides the rear charging system, but that I can live with.

Because the original Armalite “aesthetics” ie ergonomics, are just about perfect; and actually suffer greatly when morphed throughh A2 into M4 variants, with all the extraneous accessory crap bolted on to it.
