    30 Remington-GUN, not cartridge questions

    Hello,

    I don't care a flip about the cartridge, but does anyone have any info on the mechanical parts?

    Specifically, the:
    Bolt, Carrier, BBL extension and upper receiver,

    Are they like standard AR parts or larger, specialty parts, like the Oly WSSM parts?

    Thanks!

    I think its basically a different bolt/same bcg but I could be wrong. Im not too familiar with them but they appear to be a regular dpms ar in a different caliber. The caliber however seems promissing if it catches on. At least I think so.

    They have a .308 sized bolt head in an AR15 platform, which would open up many different cartridge possibilities based on the Rem BR cases.

    Mags would be a center feed design.

    Interesting possibilities!

    I assume this new 30 Remington is not the same as the older 30 Remington from which the 6.8 SPC case is derived?

    That's correct. The new one is the .30 RAR (Remmington AR) IIRC.
