This upper has been fired, it had some unburnt powder in it, and a few wear marks, and black on the end of the barrel, I dont understand why it wont work for me.
DEZ:
It probably didn't work for who ever slapped it together and called it an Alexander Arms Grendel. They found it wouldn't work so traded it in or sold it to a wannabee tactical gunshop. The gunshop owners probably suspected it wasn't a AA Grendel and are only repeating what they were told by who ever sold it to them. This gives the owners a 'out' when their crap doesn't work.
Alexander is good enough to take a look providing you send it to him. Apparently it isn't a barrel sold by AA either so if Alexander will take it and try to get it working, consider yourself lucky.
You ought to take it back to the gunshop and demand your money back in total. If you do, I doubt they will take it back or at least will not return all of your money. They will say 'it worked when it left the shop'., or 'you took it apart so no returns'.
Send it to Alexander.
