And it's back up and reworded.
Franklin Armory Reformation: It’s a Smoothbore 5.56. Maybe.
http://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2018/0 ... bore-5-56/
Do to some confusion, and ongoing confusion, we removed the original post and have reposted the post post-haste. I had the chance to shoot the Franklin Armory Reformation today. I snuck a peak down the barrel and didn’t see any rifling. For less information click here. We will know for sure tomorrow.
There are criminals among us who are both homicidal and incorrigible. Their parents took a shot at civilizing them and failed. Their school teachers took a shot at them and failed. The odds are overwhelming that government welfare programs and penal institutions took a shot at them and failed. If it ever becomes your turn to take a shot at them, don’t fail.

This whole thing has been a train wreck. I don’t think it will end up having the results for FA they want it to.

Fin-stabilized Ammo
So how is this non-SBR not an SBR?
Good question. According to the numbers and letters below, the Reformation isn’t a rifle, because the bore isn’t rifled.
Its 11.5″ barrel has lands and groves cut straight down the bore.
Well, according to the Franklin rep they are achieving 4 MOA with off-the-shelf ammo, so it’s minute of bad guy. They are releasing fin-stabilized projectiles that, from their testing, have produced near MOA accuracy.

Sooooo, it is not quite a smooth-bore and not rifled at the same time.

Its a waste. Unless your hard core against getting an NFA item it useless.

Not impressed. a pistol with a brace is a better option. I will but some of their nerf ammo though, mainly because I am curious how it will do out of my rifled barrel.

Now what happens when you put that ammo into a reg rifle barrel?

$10 per round for the R.I.P. version.

So I guess everyone has lost interest at this point?

For most of us, if we want a SBR, we just get the stamp. But there are Commie states that collude with Russia where you can’t have a SBR. It might sell there.
