Not a Grendel but 3rd build starting!
#1
Hey guys starting my 3rd build now. First was a lightweight 5.56 for my wife, second was a 24" barreled 6.5 Grendel (still need muzzle device and optics), now I want a 7.62x39 setup so I can throw a lot of cheap steel case lead at the range and not feel it in the wallet. I have a 300 Blk and that's too expensive to shoot hundreds of rounds in a day.

Parts acquired

Midwest Industries billet upper
Valley Ordnance Works billet lower
YHM fluted 16" 7.62 barrel
Liberty Gun Works 7.62 bolt
Adams Arms piston kit
BMC mod 3 charging handle

Parts needed

Trigger
Handguard
Muzzle device
Stock

Will you be getting a .311" bore barrel for it, since COMBLOC and Eastern ammo is .311" diameter?

Check your receiver face for being square. The MI Billet should be square, but check anyway.

The ASC 30rd mags might need AK springs installed in them.

A good feed ramp blend and polish often equates to a reliable 7.62x39 AR.

Looking forward to your results.

I'm seriously thinking about doing a 7.62x39 with a 20" barrel

Yea I talked with Russell Cason at Liberty Gun works on what needs to be done to get the 7.62 to run reliably. Cant wait to get it up and running.

If you like YHM you might be interested in my handguard.
