AR15 .35cal Upper

Did the .35 Gremlin, or .35 Grenel ever gain commercial acceptance as a cartridge for the AR15?:huh: I was reading some old Wildcat WEB Site entrys, but didn't find anything current. The main problem seemed to be (Same old crap)

Magazines.

Do you mean 6.5 Grendel?Yes...

Negative. These were made from 6.5 Grendel, or 7.62x39 Brass :s0155:

Sorry to drag up an old, old thread guys, but I thought it made better sense than just posting something new.

I stumbled onto the .358 Gremlin concept and have been doing a bit of Googling to read more about it. But, is it basically a theoretical-only cartridge that never, ever got even started? No AR barrels or uppers to be purchased?

Yeah, I thought it was cool too, especially since I already had a 7.62x39 and a .223
I followed it for a while, but it never seemed to go "Mainstream".

I ended up buying a .458 Socom from RRA and after a few teething problems, mainly reloading dies, I'm quite happy with it. :s0155:
