[TriggrCon 2023] Insane Power in a Tiny Carbine: The Genesis 8.6mm PDW
James is at TriggrCon 2023 speaking with the guys at Genesis about their 8.6mm PDW, which is ultimately both competition with the Q Boombox, but also a complimentary platform that will make 8.6mm more attractive for potential buyers as more manufacturers start supporting this revolutionary new caliber. Bottom line, this is an insanely powerful, low-recoiling rifle in a package about the same size as an H&K MP5.

I just think of the Garandthumb 8.6 blk video where a particularly round effortlessly went through 3 gel blocks, like a laser the whole way through. Never seen that before.
Ammoseek tells me that 8.6 ammo is running $2.31 PER ROUND. So..... PASS. Come on. We are citizens, not nation-states. If I wanted a gun I need a second mortgage to shoot - it would be a M2 Browning.
