Geissele Automatics | New BORTAC Rifle and more 6MM ARC Goodness! | SHOTShow 2023

This video showcases the Geissele GFR Mod1 rifle chambered in 6MM ARC. The title suggests a "Recce" style build, which typically implies a rifle optimized for reconnaissance and medium-range engagements. The focus is likely on the rifle's components, build, and potentially its performance characteristics at the range.

The Geissele GFR in 6mm ARC demonstrates exceptional practical accuracy, consistently hitting targets out to 1,000 yards with minimal wind drift compared to 5.56 NATO. Its reinforced receiver and proprietary magazines are designed for the higher pressure cartridge, offering a compelling alternative for military applications over legacy platforms like the Mk12 SPR.

This review of the Geissele GFR in 6mm ARC highlights its impressive accuracy, achieving sub-MOA groups consistently. The video emphasizes the performance benefits of Geissele's cold hammer-forged, chrome-lined barrels, which offer longevity without sacrificing precision. It also explores the 6mm ARC cartridge's capabilities and the positive impact of suppressors on AR-15 accuracy.

This video showcases the Noveske N4 OG rifle chambered in 6MM ARC. The creator highlights its impressive accuracy, achieving 0.75 MOA with a 4-round group using an EOTech and magnifier, and expresses surprise at this performance. The video also briefly touches on a minor issue with fitment potentially caused by Cerakote, for which Noveske provided troubleshooting advice. The creator plans further testing with an LPVO and higher round counts, emphasizing their honest feedback and lack of affiliation with any brands. The video also shouts out Garand Thumb.

The 6mm ARC cartridge offers a compelling balance of long-range performance and AR-15 compatibility, bridging the gap between 5.56 NATO and larger cartridges like 6.5 Creedmoor. It demonstrates excellent ballistic coefficient, retaining energy and resisting wind effectively out to 1,000 yards. Terminal ballistics show violent fragmentation and significant wound cavities, while accuracy remains sub-MOA with manageable recoil for rapid follow-up shots.

This video tests the practical accuracy of the Geissele GFR rifle in high winds, specifically between 18-29 mph, at a distance of 1,000 yards. The reviewer aims to determine the rifle's performance under challenging atmospheric conditions, building on previous tests conducted in lower wind speeds.

This video features a former Navy SEAL, Jeff Gonzales, providing expert feedback on a home defense AR-15 build. He critiques the rifle's accessories, particularly the sling, and emphasizes the importance of reliable optics and the benefits of a suppressor for indoor use. The discussion highlights practical considerations for effective home defense firearms.

The Beretta ARX-160, showcased at SHOT Show 2011, is a modular, piston-driven rifle featuring ambidextrous controls and tool-less disassembly. Its design emphasizes adaptability with multiple sling points, interchangeable magazine releases, and a quick-change barrel system. While currently limited to military/defense use, future law enforcement and civilian variants are planned.

Fostech unveiled a 20-round .50 BMG drum magazine for Barrett M107 and 82A1 rifles, constructed from billet machined aluminum. They also introduced the Fostech Rader, a lightweight .308 rifle featuring a proprietary magnesium aluminum alloy and ambidextrous controls. The drum mag is priced at $1599 with a Q3/Q4 availability, while the Rader rifle is expected around $3000 with a Q4 release.

Testing a Remington 158gr SJHP .357 Magnum load from a 16-inch Rossi M92 reveals impressive performance, achieving 1709.6 fps. The round exhibited significant fragmentation and penetration of 20.1 inches in ballistic gel, behaving more like a rifle cartridge due to its velocity. This challenges typical handgun round terminal ballistics expectations.
