Friends, we lived to see a GLOCK™ rifle! The GR-115F cal 5.56x45mm
No finger grooves tells us this is definitely their gen 1........
The GR-115F is submitted for a 2021 British Special Operations contract but photos have only just leaked: What is remarkable is that the GR-115F includes Glock patents for rifles which they have been applying for since ~2019. For example, the bolt release and magazine release are proprietary Glock designs, as well as a 4-position adjustable gas block under the quick-detach handguard. An adjustable gas system is imperative for short-barreled AR's particularly when shooting suppressed or going between suppressed and unsuppressed. On the bottom of the handguard is a lever and nut to take the handguard off and remove it to access the gas key on the battlefield.
A GLOCK rollmark on an AR! The Glock rifle patents which caused us a buzz a few years ago are on a real, live gun! This is a select fire rifle- Note the 3rd pin and mark for auto setting. In other words, this particular model will never be available to the masses. But this is the first step in putting GLOCK rifles in our hands.
The next question... But, does it take Glock mags?
