Rudy at Macon Armory did mine. It was awhile ago so I am not 100% if he is still doing it. You could give him a ring or PM

IF it were me, I would just BUILD a new upper in the length that you want, and just swap it out.

But, that's just me.....A few dollars more, but, it gives you lots of options....

I'd just buy a barrel. Most of the shorter 9mm barrels are pretty cheap. Mine was under a $100.

Is it DI or blowback? Re-cutting and re-threading and getting a gas port done is more effort than its worth when you could just get a new bbl. If you have a buddy with a lathe then perhaps a case of beer would be more cost-effective, but I digress..

Adco.  Have them ramp the bolt too if it is a Colt style system.

Pick up a spinta or ballistic advantage barrel, they are good quality and priced well.

I have had great results with both.
