So I'm collecting parts for a 6.5 Grendel upper build.

I have the barrel, gas tube (both FREE from someone on another forum), muzzle brake, BCG, charging handle, dust cover/forward assist.

I think the only things I'm missing are gas block and handguard.

I've read that I don't need an adjustable gas block, but I'll get it if I need to.

For the handguard, I was thinking about getting it in a ghey blue color so I could easily distinguish it from the other uppers. Would that be TOO ghey? Like this:

My 6.5 Grendel was a cheap build, so I didn’t get an adjustable gas block for it. It cycles suppressed and unsuppressed just fine with no issues.

In comparison, my .308 has an adjustable gas block, and you have to adjust the gas between suppressed and unsuppressed or it will have cycling issues.

New optic week! Vortex spitfire with obviously an EFLX piggybacked. The spitfire is my first prism optic, I like it. 6X magnification. I know many of you are not fans of the EFLX, but I have not had any issues with mine outside of the fact it eats batteries at a disgusting rate. Oh, and Hi to all my OG Gun Club bros. Oh, and fuck Alta.

Going to southern Indiana to my best friends place on Saturday to shoot and grill out, he's got a nice little range on his property. My niece and her boyfriend are meeting my girl and I, and two other of my best friends and their wives down there. Should be a great time boys!

Sounds like an amazing day. I’ll probably have to work in the mornings but it shouldn’t be too bad.

Thanks. Yeah, this is a bit of a budget build as well.

I also have a stripped AR10 lower to finish, but I'm planning to buy an upper and reduce some work on my part.

I'm starting to get a little butt hurt that I haven't been banned at the OG yet. I'm going to have to go nuclear here shortly. Lol

Added a compensator to my G17 for that Roland Special look. Shame this place doesn't have an app for ease of pictures.

Same here, I'll miss the ease of snapping a pic on my phone. I'm not gonna snap, then email, then paste etc. I'm lazy.
