Hoping to find someone local who can remove a permanently attached A2 flash hider from my 14.5” BCM upper and replace it with a permanently attached Griffin taper mount. Any suggestions?

Where are you located?
Are you willing to travel a bit if needed?

Removal is quick and easy with a dremel and cutting wheel. Installation is also easy if you have a welder.
I don’t.

Have you considered going the SBR route and then. It worrying about barrel length?
Especially if you’re going with a mount for a suppressor, it could be beneficial to have the ability to change mounts or any muzzle device whenever you want.

Valid point and ultimately I may well go that route. But I do love this particular AR and would love to run it suppressed, so if there’s someone local able to do it I’m inclined to get it done (building another AR is of course not exclusive to this)

Anyone else besides Northeast Gun Works who does this in NH? He sounds like a great guy but he’s an hour and a half away and I can’t make it down to his location during the hours he’s open

I believe MacPherson in Epping/Brentwood can do that.

You’ve stated you don’t want to travel very far for this but when asked what part of the state you are in, you ignore the question.  Hard to help someone who avoids cooperation.

It's going to be awful hard to give more local recommendations without knowing your location. County?

Indeed my bad, I forgot about my thread having had the work done. Saying I avoided cooperation is a stretch tho, and that I wasn’t willing to travel is flat out inaccurate

Tony at RTD Arms in Bedford got this done for me. Top notch service and price was reasonable. Was able to pick it up on a Saturday which was a huge convenience for me and I appreciated. Ended up chatting for almost an hour talking guns etc. Would highly recommend him and his shop

Try calling Pinnacle Sports in Newport. Apparently they have a gunsmith that I've heard does good work.
