IMG_1046.jpgIMG_1045.jpgSo Sunday comes and I'm pumped about taking my latest creation to the range.
22" 6.5 CSS threaded LW barrel (kit)
AA Side charging billet upper w/ BCG
Midwest Industries Gen 2 Handguard
NF 5.5-22x56 on leupold xhigh rings
Now the problem. Dang thing wouldn't go into battery. Did some research and it would appear common issue for CSS due to short chamber.
Insert disappointment. No response from CSS yet.
I've built 2 other Grendels (16" for self and 20" for buddy). Been building AR's for years and this is the first problem I personally couldn't solve.
Called Mark @ Precision Firearms. Nice guy. Familiar with the problems I'm dealing with and said he can fix it. Guess I get to tear it all back apart and spend some more money. Boy what fun! Looking at 3 weeks turn around from Mark. At least it's a solution.
