Possible hoax. An unregistered user raised the following concerns [1]: "The only proof of the GatMalite is through poorly photoshoppped images, dubious rifle listings, as well as fan made airsoft rifles/mockups. There is no proof of existence, or footage, of such a rifle functioning, nor is it acknowledged by the supposed creator of the rifle, the Knight's Armament Company." (See also the talk page.) No useful references, and Google hits for the name of the device mostly consist of copies of the Wikipedia article. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 07:09, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

- Delete: even if this weren't a fairly obvious hoax/copyvio, there isn't any evidence to suggest notability. There are thousands of AR-15 clones/variants in the market, and this doesn't seem to be anything special. bahamut0013wordsdeeds 20:42, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
