Grendel questions

[Neanderthal]

Thanks, got most of my questions answered in a few minutes of reading. I joined and am waiting for BFT’s blessing. I see huckleberry75 and chazroh over there. Is your user name the same?
BTW, what was the cost on the bolt group buy?

I use the same name over there, but rarely post. The "Monster" group buy bolts are $55 + shipping.

In a dilemma. I have a PSA upper that just needs the bolt and barrel swapped out OR I have enough parts to build from scratch, choices.

The choice is obvious, you need 2 of them.

According to this page, you must change the barrel, bolt, and magazine(s) to swap from 5.56 to 6.5 Grendel...

Just going by what the linked page says. ARs are not my area of expertise (lol, if I even have one anymore).
