Who would you use for barrel installation/headspacing. Thanks! V6 |

I'm not sure where you are, but you could talk to Ned at Purcell's Custom Firearms in Orange, VA.

I know it's not the answer to the question you asked, but have you checked the Build it Yourself forum on this site?
It's not hard to do, at all. It does require a bit of investment in tools, but I'm sure you could find someone local that would lend them to you. |

Thanks for the answers guys, I am in Richmond by the way. I have dealt with ACF before, they are good people, gonna give them a call.

I would first check with Rick at TTI on Route 1. Best gunsmith in the Metro Richmond area.

Another +1 for TTi. Rick is one of the best around. We are lucky that he is in the Richmond area.

Sodan armament is pretty good they just built me a custom cheaper than I could buy a commercialy built one

Forgot to say there in Quinton

TTi up in Ashland is good to go. But I'll also second the recommendation to try to do it yourself, as TTi usually isn't cheap, even for basic things.

If its a new barrel and new bolt, you really could do this yourself.
For a six pack of beer I'd let ya use all my tools to do it yourself if you were in NOVA. |

Our new address will be 3300 New Kent Hwy, Ste A, 23141. We are currently working on remodeling the new location, and hope to upload some photos of the new place soon!" |

Just swap the barrels and go. |

Probly the same building that coles sporting goods was in. The owner of that shop sold it to a guy that changed the name to crossroads outfitters then moved it to where Sodan is/was and ran it into the ground. The owner of Sodan (Charles Sodan) was the smith there and took over the building and changed the name. He is a good guy to deal with and appreciates firearms. A buddy of mine has spoken with him about doing some cerakoting on a upper and lower and he does do it but I have not seen any finished results. He does not keep a large inventory but he does not have a bunch of "sporting goods" either it is a straight up gun shop much like rick at TTI |
