I don’t know about you all but I am pretty excited about the “JAKL-H” as I like to call it. I’m really hoping for a 14.5” 6.5cm to compliment my other 6.5 rifles with longer barrels. It seems like this rifle has the potential to be out well ahead of the x57.
Is anyone else looking forward to the JAKL-H as well? What configuration do you want to see?
Love my 8.5" 300blk Jakl, but have some suggestions... The longer versions are front-heavy chonks.
-rework the stock adapter(s) for less bulk. -lighter barrel contour -get some mass out of the gas block. -lightweight (polymer?) handguard options. -charging sled stop that doesn't let the charging handle strike the receiver.

I feel like I recall them mentioning the handguard being streamlined a bit for the new jakls but I could be mistaken.
nice. once they start making suppressors, one stop shopping hopefully. If they could do a $500 "pretty good at all things" 556 and .308 cans, they'd sell tons of them (and if the FATF would do approvals in days not months).

Jeez. The charging handles still beat up the receiver. Sometimes PSA is a whole lot of

They do make cans. PSA and AAC are sister companies.

There are already REALLY good $500 cans. I'd be okay with jUsT aS gOoD $3-350 cans. Since griffin is jumping in the older KAC cloning thing again, PSA can just clone some really old patent expired designs or just come back out with the m42k and the likes. As for the 308 jakl, my 8.5" 300 jakl is already a pig. I truly hope they consider weight when bringing this to market. Also wish they would have went with g2 receiver size.
