Precision Firearms makes their 18 barrel only with an intermediate length gas system. I am unable to find a lot of information about the intermediate gas system reliability and function in the Grendel. Especially with a full time suppressor.
Faxon and Alexander Arms both run a mid length gas system on their 18 barrels. So I do not know if it is okay to go with the intermediate gas system or look for an 18 Bartlein with the mid gas length system.
The uppers currently have a 10.5 handguard which just does cover the mid length located gas block. The company who made my uppers makes a 13 handguard, but they will not sell it separately from their kit. I begged them for the longer handguard.
