Got my first 6.5 Grendel together, mostly.
Couple three tweaks left couple parts to install and it'll be done.

Re: 6.5 Grendel build
I think I wanna do that but I'm not sure why.

Re: 6.5 Grendel build
Odin Works 20" heavy SS barrel 6.5 Grendel type II
Odin Works bolt carrier group, Grendel type II,
Odin Works .75" settable gas block w/ roll pin,
Odin Works rifle gas tube,
Matrix AR-15 Multi Caliber Stripped Lower,
Matrix AR-15 Stripped Upper
Midwest Industries G3 15" Keymod FDE(anodize) full top rail free float handguard
VG6 6.5 Gamma Compensator w/ crush ring
BCM Mod 4 charging handle
AR Stoner Lower Parts Kit
AR Stoner and/or Apex and/or DPMS fwd assist and dust cover parts
Magpul OD Green MOE plus pistol grip
Goliath Kalifornication grip wrap
LBE carbine buffer extension, spring end plate and buffer,
Magpul MOE FDE fixed carbine stock,
Atibal scope mount
Leupold 4-12x40 Patrol scope
So I'll probably need to unify the color scheme at some point but to be frank I don't much care compared to the fact that I'm unlikely to mistake this upper for a 5.56/.223 Wylde.
Need to add a trigger guard (Magpul) and upgrade the selector (Battle Arms Development by choice).
Adjust the gas block.
Sight in the scope.
Maybe add Leupold scope covers.
Maybe add back up sights or offset backup sights.
Probably add BCM Keymod grip panels to the handguard.

Re: 6.5 Grendel build
I've got parts, except for a handguard, to build up two more Grendels.
The lowers are at the shop waiting 10 days until I can pick them up because our communist state can't trust a firearm buyer for 10 days after they do all the paperwork regardless of what other implements they might already own that could be used for mayhem.
