Looking to get a new muzzle break for my AR.  I've heard JoJo's does really good work.  Can anyone recommend another shop or backup JoJo's?  I know there is ADCO but I figured I could save on shipping costs and other costs.  Thanks guys.

Jo-jos does great work.
Not sure where you are located in CT but they are almost an hour each way for me. Costs me $20 in fuel each trip. So add 40 to the price of work.
Anyway I still have ADCO do all my barrel work. They are usually cheaper and quicker. Plus I dont have to drive there. If you are close it is a toss up.

I have had things there anywhere from a day to a couple weeks. Depends how busy they are. There is no way I am going to make that drive 2 days in a row. Like I said they do great work just a bit far for me.
I just drop a package in the mail to ADCO and about 4 or 5 days later it is on my door step. Same price if not cheaper and I dont have to waste 6 hours of my time.

jo-jos is about 45 minutes from me, which isn't a deal breaker, depending on how much they charge for their services.  Do you remember roughly how much shipping costs were when you went with ADCO?

I think it was $12 each way with insurance.

Another question for you guys while I'm on it.  14.5" barrels need a pinned comp/muzzle break to be legal at 16.1".  In CT, if the barrel is already 16" in length, do you still need a pinned muzzle break/comp, or can you go about it without.

If the 16" barrel is on a post-ban and you want to put a brake on it then yes it needs to be pinned/welded.  



If the barrel is 16" and has a target crown (no threads, no flash hider) then you are good to go.
