My new Grendel upper has shipped!!!! And, although it's not in my hands yet, I decided it needs a big sister so I'm sealing the deal on a Beowulf upper to keep her company 
Now I have to start the search for some serious bargain dedicated lowers for them. Edit: It's official, I'm the owner of a new (well almost new) Beowulf! YAY! I wonder if H&H will let me shoot it there...I know they won't allow 50 BMG for obvious reasons. I suppose I better start hunting down some ammo for it

WHOOHOO!! Have you bought any ammo for it yet??? 
7 Element Arms has some stripped lowers he just got in.... 7 Element 7 Element Firearms, LLC Spikes stripped lowers. 2 Zombies, 1 Punisher, and 1 Calico Jack. $120.00 this price includes tax. |
| Congrats on the Wulf! You may want to start reloading for that and the Grendel. I have both and factory ammo isn't cheap, but reloading isn't bad at all. What type of budget lowers are you looking at? Also, save up your pennies and get a REALLY nice scope for the Grendel. That caliber really shines at really long distances. Hopefully you have access to a long range. |

Hopefully you have access to a long range. Looking for good quality complete lowers although I don't need stocks...the Grendel is getting a Tactical Intent "Kitty Pink" buttstock to match the pink Hogue forend that Loki put on for me and the Beowulf is getting probably a Magpul with an extra thick recoil pad. I will probably put an after market trigger on whichever lower goes on the Grendel. |
GRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!! The upper arrived today and is beautiful except for.....the forend is bent halfway to one side of the barrel! I don't know if it happened during shipping or what, I can't imagine Loki letting it leave the factory like that. There's a gap in between the end of the forend and the barrel that's 7/16" on one side and 3/4" on the other. I'm just about to have a fit  Sent an email with picture to Erik at Loki so I'm sure I'll hear from him tomorrow because I refuse to accept it in this condition
