Ditto. A son can cherish a rifle his father built forever.

This was a super-duper, fun build and even better when it shot exceptionally well.
The really funny part was when we started a "Grendel Shoot-off"....his against mine...betting $5/target.
After MANY targets, I left with one, five dollar bill in my pocket...and a "You shoot more than I do,,,,You built it,,,You practice more than I do...". All I heard was "blah blah blah".........but after we left the range, all was forgiven and forgotten when I pulled in to the beer store....
My pleasure was in seeing him shoot it VERY well for the first time.

So now it's time to build an Grendel SBR, with a Lilja Barrel right? It can be for the future grandkids. HAHAHA
Glad to hear that build worked out so well for you.
