...faster than Superman on laundry day.
AA said my upper would take 10-12 weeks to deliver and knowing I had a stripped upper at home, I bought an 18" .264lbc AR-Stoner barrel that was in stock at Midway USA.
I know, I know...I should have bought a grendel chamber. But I'm weak and I don't know if I can hold out for 3 months.
Who knows. I just might keep 'em both...muahahahaha!!

That barrel is the Grendel chamber. I got the same one and it's clearly labeled 6.5 Grendel on the barrel and the box.

Measure the neck of a fired case, and you might learn that you have a Grendel chamber despite indications otherwise.
Either way, I think you'll be fine, with the possible exception of some Wolf ammo in some LBC chambers.

I did measure several of my fired brass and they did measure at .300. I'm sure yours will be too.
This is great news...now all I need to do is learn how to assemble an upper. Seems like a fun project.
Thanks again, gentlemen, for the encouraging words!
I'm glad I didn't hesitate. They're out of stock already.:eek:

JDUb...check out AccuracySpeaks on Youtube. I build my first AR upper a couple of weeks ago using his videos almost exclusively. They were the best, most complete videos I could find.

Did government credibility die of Covid or with Covid?
Thanks for the tip!
It's gonna take a little time for me to accumulate all the tools...I hope I finish before my AA upper arrives or the joke's on me.
