Talked to the guys at 2 of the gun stores I visit and they don't have anyone they would recommend to thread a barrel.

I'd like to get a couple factory Tikka T3 lite barrels and a green mountain .22 bull barrel threaded for use with suppressors.

1/2 28 on the .22
Probably have to do 1/2 28 on the factory Tikka barrels as well, if its even possible.

Is there anyone you guys would highly recommend?  The last thing I need is a botched machining job that causes a round to eat the suppressor(s).

I'd personally just send it off to ADCO. If it's just the barrel, shipping shouldn't be more than $10.

They have done a great job with all my projects and are one of the best in the industry.

He did my Ruger charger barrel. It's beautiful.

It's not MN but I mentioned it to my gunsmith and he said that Dakota Silencer does a good job and do it for a price that's difficult to compete with.  I believe they may also have a local office to help with the shipping.  Can't speak from experience so take it for what it's worth.

ADCO and Class 3 Machining are the two most often recommended in the other forums here and can be found on the Industry page. Class 3 even offers a ARFcom discount.

Don't go to ADCO, I've seen plenty of unhappy customers, as well as happy with them. John at Retro Arms Works is who you want to use, trust me. There are many threads here on ARFCOM showing his amazing work. He's cheap, fast and does the best work in the business.
