Dear 24HCF Family,
I am building my first AR platform rifle. I decided to go with a 6.5 Grendel. I have all of the parts for the lower but now I'm looking for a barrel, BCG, and GB/GT combination. I have found ever single pieces and a few from the same vendor but none matching the components I want.
Barrel:
20" length
SS either 410 or 416R
fluted
Type 2 chamber
rifle length gas port
BCG:
Nickke Boron
6.5 type 2 bolt
Low profile Adjustable Gas Block
Rifle length gas tube
The remaining pieces:
Prefer billet Ambidextrous Side-Charging Upper like Davidson Defense XRS3 Receiver Assembly
I can find a complete upper from Odin but their BCG is Nitrie treated and they won't sell me just the bolt
Spikes doesn't make a 6.5 Grendel bolt
Alexandr Arms is really confusing. They sell a 16" or 18" barrel and state they will not make custom lengths. Fair enough but then their products FAQ section states the barrel length for the 6.5 should be either 20" to 24". They will sell you a bolt (type II) barrel and gas block and tube all separately for a lot of money.
Shaw (where I get my barrels for my bolt guns) don't sell AR barrels yet they will flute one if I need them too.
JP Enterprise has both the bolt and barrel. This is perfect as I can add a Nickel Boron BCG and a GB/GT. But I really do not wish to spend almost $530 dollar for three components.
The lower receiver currently has:
Quentin Defense lower receiver
Elf Drop In Trigger
Rifle length buffer tube
Magpul PRS Gen 3 stock
Thank you in advance
