Hey Horde,
I have a PSA Grendel I bought off this forum several years ago..........never fired it. Before I could, I got on here and found out I had the infamous non-SAMMI chambered Liberty barrel. Good thing, as I was taking it apart to send it out to have the chamber fixed, i found a barely finger tight barrel nut. Anyway, with the lost allure of the Liberty barrel, I found a Shilen here for sale and got it. Still have not put this thing together yet, but got to thinking(uh-oh) that all I need is another upper rcvr then I would have two uppers to play with, just swap over bolt carrier and bolt and charging handle and that would be it.
If I am incorrect in my thinking, please advise!!
Now for the question, what upper rcvr should I buy? Should I use the new one with the Shilen for a more accurate upper? The Shilen would have to be bedded in the current PSA upper so I would hope to get the new rcvr with tighter fit. So keeping that in mind, again, which rcvr should I look for and where should I look?
Thanks in advance for your help
