IF you own a Lewis Machine & Tool Multi Rail Platform (MRP) you can have Grendel too! - HuntTXhogs - 11-09-2020 I have an LmT Defender 2000 lower and it came with a 6.8 SPC MRP upper. Its a solid chassis (monolithic upper) and shoots pretty good with 6.8 but thats not my main caliber - not by a long shot. I found a company D Wilson Mfg who is doing barrel conversions for around $ 150. I shipped them a 6.5 Grendel barrel, the upper chassis, and I understand they will turn down the extension to fit the LMT. This is a permanent conversion so youll sacrifice the barrel for the cause. I dont know seems like a cheap way to get some additional firepower in the system once you buy in for the LMT MRP. Once I get the barrel and upper back ill go shooting and report back how it does. HTXH IF you own a Lewis Machine & Tool Multi Rail Platform (MRP) you can have Grendel too! - LRRPF52 - 11-11-2020 It really should be a factory option from LMT now. Great to hear that D Wilson does it. The LMT PDW is cool. You could set up a permanent suppressor/barrel that goes to 16 and not have to worry about it being an SBR. IF you own a Lewis Machine & Tool Multi Rail Platform (MRP) you can have Grendel too! - Snapper314 - 01-06-2021 I've got a 12.5 inch 6.5 Grendel Barrel that I plan on converting. Still trying to decide between D Wilson and Nefarious Arms. The conversion by D Wilson requires you also send them your LMT Upper, where Nefarious Arms doesn't. I think there are a couple of other differences but can't remember. OP, Please let us know how everything goes. IF you own a Lewis Machine & Tool Multi Rail Platform (MRP) you can have Grendel too! - HuntTXhogs - 01-16-2021 Although Dwilsons website says 2-3 week turnaround I receive the parts back tomorrow after 11 weeks. So Im saying pass for now. As long as it shoots like it did before (not converted) Ill be happy - Ill let you know IF you own a Lewis Machine & Tool Multi Rail Platform (MRP) you can have Grendel too! - HuntTXhogs - 01-23-2021 Update: I inspected the work done on the barrel conversion , looks clean and precise I reassembled and have fired and hunted with the rig - I am happy to report zero issues or malfunctions. I am happy to have a monolithic rail platform 6.5 Grendel in the arsenal!

IF you own a Lewis Machine & Tool Multi Rail Platform (MRP) you can have Grendel too! - HuntTXhogs - 01-23-2021 Same ole grendel mags - there isnt anything special on the lower of the LMTs Its not like LWRC or CMMG proprietary systems IF you own a Lewis Machine & Tool Multi Rail Platform (MRP) you can have Grendel too! - HuntTXhogs - 01-29-2021 This 6.5 Grendel Monolithic Rail Platform LMT is doing excellent - Load development with 90 grain TNT and AR Comp went VERY well today!
