Hey everyone, Loving the forum and learning a lot about the Grendel. I have been wanting to get a new upper for my DPMS Panther Bull 20. It is way to heavy and I want something with a little more pop than the 223. I was originally thinking big bore like the Beowulf but with the SAAMI news on the grendel and wolf making both brass and steel ammo the Grendel has caught my eye. Not ready to build one from scratch.
There is a dealer at my local gun show that is selling uppers for a very reasonable price(compared to what the classified are asking for used uppers on here).
they are building the uppers themselves and have multiple calibers, 300 blkout, grendel, and a few others.
My question is what should I be looking for outside of an AA stamp
.
It sounds like Stoner barrels are highly regarded on here. Any barrel manufaturers that I should stay away from??
Anything specific in the bolt or carrier group? or gas system?
You know what they say sometimes good deals are too good... Just trying to prepare myself for the Gun Show next weekend.
Any Help or opinions are appreciated!!
