New side folding, piston 6.5 grendel option coming soon - txgunner00 - 01-17-2015
I was just listening to a podcast with someone from Faxon Firearms on it.

He mentioned they are releasing a 7.62 x 39 upper at SHOT and will soon follow with a 6.5 Grendel version.
I'm intrigued... I'm already hunting with a 12.5" barreled 6.5 and getting great results from it. I'm picturing the same size upper with a side folding stock that can fit in a backpack.

Probably likely to be a new upper in the ARAK-21 line. The Firearm Blog just did a review a couple of days ago.

I sent them an email asking about barrel lengths and got a very quick reply. Unfortunately no info on barrel length or profile yet but I did cast my vote for 12.5"
