| I have a couple of ban-era 20-inch barrels that shoot great. I'm wondering if you can recommend a place to send them to cut/thread them. Colorado would be nice, but I'm willing to ship far away to a very reputable gunsmith. And, what do you think I should budget for this project? |
I don't know where to go, or what to call my own

John Thomas is another good option. Not in CO but very quick with turnaround and shipping. https://retroarmsworks.com/ |

All three were finished and shipped back to me on the same day he received them. No guarantees on the same day part but mine all were. Threads are all concentric and perfect for suppressor use. He also does Colt factory-style staking on receiver extension nuts. |

And very reasonably priced. He would be my first choice again. |
