Not sure how valid the claim is but this channel is claiming to have seen the newly filed and granted patents for a Glock rifle.. appears to be in 5.56 or similar caliber design.
Possible Glock rifle patents found???

Me personally, big doubt this is actually or anything will happen if it is a thing

So... A $18 rifle with a $900 price tag?
Kel-Tec already beat them to maket on those.

I'm not gonna bite just yet. That said, I don't think it out of the realm of possibility considering the market for chassis that turn a Glock pistol into a carbine and just the PCC market in general.
But the patents have nothing to do with that

You caught me red handed. I haven't watched the video yet, lol.
Yeah it appears (if real) a rifle caliber carbine
Is It Happening? GLOCK Assault Rifle Patents Emerge
It's often asked, 'why don't Glock make rifles?' But it seems that Glock engineers have been hard at work on a rifle design! Will this be the Glock Assault Rifle?

What’s the point? What is it going to do in terms of cost, benefits, features that would make any law enforcement or military switch from the current platforms on the market?

We won't get it in NY, anyway. No chance a "compliant" version would be available.

My guess is that the new Glock rifle is going to look exactly like this:

Everyone is just trying to get their piece of the pie. It's been like that for a very long time now. You're thinking of it in a practical sense. All of these manufacturers are just looking at their bottom lines. I don't know if there's any innovation left to be had.

The more people that crowd in the smaller everybody’s slice of the pie is. Glock mainly cares about law enforcement and military contracts, the civilian side of things come second fiddle. So to get a department or a branch to decide to replace their current rifles you either have to be cheaper than the already proven options or offer something better.
Frankly I'd rather see the Bushmaster ACR get a second chance.............. or third chance as the case may be. However many chances it takes to get tge QC back up and the price below $2,000.

Yup. And the companies still want that small piece. People and especially LEO will choose Glock over competitors because Glock.
∆∆∆∆ This right here . . . if it says Glock on it, people will want it, with few exceptions. 45GAP is the first I can think of.
What of it turned out to be a good rifle at a good price?

It would be great for anyone that doesn't already have a rifle that can do exactly what it does. There are so many rifles and pistols out there that it's just the same stuff over and over and over. I'm personally done with the practical stuff. I want weird and wacky at this point.

I wonder how many cops will shoot themselves with this and blame it on the rifle??
