I have a SW45, the knock off Special Weapons version of the MP5, chambered in .45.  Say what you want, it fires flawlessly and is a hoot to shoot.  Anyway, The barrel...it is a little thin for my liking.  Anyone know anyone who can custom make a barrel for this kind of gun?  I want a heavier barrel, maybe fluted.  I know there are hundreds of guys who make custom barrels for ARs, Rem700, and Win70s, but can anyone help me with this?

Disclaimer:  I recognize this is a non AR question in the AR section, but I couldnt find a Special weapons page or a gunsmith/custom work ssection.  Sorry.

Did you try "The Armory" section?  That area deals with non-AR firearms.

Right, by catagory.  But there is no catagory for Special Weapons.

Go to the General section and try there, someone may have an answer for you.

Because they're pretty well universally despised, kind of like Century...

If SW did a good enough job, and IF it's possible to re-barrell a MP-series gun, you might try finding a 'real' HK UMP BBL...

The problem is MP5 barrels arent in .45 and UMP barrels aren't interchangable with the 94 style frame, so I need one custom made.
