A new yugo... Sort of...

I don't know if it's been mentioned here, and I don't know if any are left but I found this...

interesting vid, thanks for sharing.  ........... now to go check out J&G

"New" only as in the fact it's a Bosnian rebuilt, typically scrubbed, reserialized, rebarreled by TRB, it's a Cali legal rifle, with the muzzle brake installed and evil launcher removed. That is a G16 variant, and upgraded version of the first G10 rifle, which did not have a muzzle brake, only a barrel stub. We have discussed them, in fact a few years ago, the G10 variant caused a huge stink, being toted and sold as a M59 when it was a chopped/rebuilt M59/66. They must be made and imported in small lots, because they last maybe a year in vendors listings and then vanish.

So...  more came in and they are calling them a G16?

J&G had them.. had a M14 style muzzle brake, and I do believe they were marked G16, where the earlier ones with the barrel stub was marked G10. Somewhere around here is a post on the later version..

They've been selling them for about 6 months now I'd guess.  Identical to G10s with a muzzle brake instead of the stubbed end.

Made (modified, professionally bubba'd) in 2016, hence G16. I assume the earlier G10s were modified ca. 2010.

Huh, I never thought of it that way Jon!   Makes sense though. 

(You seem pretty smart, you should get a job in some sciencey field instead of being some grungy milsurp connoisseur!) 

For those that haven't seen them, these are some shots of a G16 from another board earlier this year:

  Thanks, yeah, maybe I should consider that

The Californistanlavia version....the only thing it launches is the desire to move to a state where you can have all the original features. 

Since California has such a problem with grenade attacks...and the subsequent obligatory slightly longer bayonettings.
