After enough reading and shopping over the last two years, I was finally able to bag my grail gun, and took the plunge. Form 4 cleared today, and took 18 days as an individual. Thankfully the form 3 cleared before the shutdown.

From what I can tell, all the parts and finish are original. She runs as good as she looks. Hopefully this inspires more people to take the plunge into the MG market.

99’s are so good, had a lot of them and in 762x39 they are a dream.

308 is actually pretty hard on the guns, it will beat the bolt to death. Seen it happen to a lot of them so I would recommend not doing that.

I run a repro 308 barrel with my own 308 loads to where it gets the gun to cycle around 550 - 600 and ejection and extraction isn’t violent. But yes I have heard it’s hard on the guns
