Nope - The only N-KY GS is an asshole and doesn't do very good work either IMO. That and I'm not sure he would do that kind of work anyway (he's more use to Fudd guns)? Trust me, send it to ADCO. Their prices are fair, their work is excellent and their turn around time is unbelievable. Even if there was a local guy, I bet you could ship your barrel to ADCO and still get it done quicker then a local guy could turn it around and with ADCO, you know it will be done right.

I have used ADCO a number of times and have always been very satisfied.

I would consider no company other than ADCO for that kind of work.

+1 on adco.  They will get it done for a reasonable price, they can do basically any type of reprofile you want, and it WILL be done correctly.  If you are able to assemble,disassemble the upper you dont need to include that service.  If not done correctly you can get a barrel that wont shoot worth anything.  With Adco that isnt a concern

Yes he charges 150 to thread an AR barrel  He is an arrogant prick with a Fudd cult following.  The other, if he has not smoked himself to being on oxygen full time has no attention to detail.  He is 100% one day and a zero the next.  

YMMV in the Louisville area.  I hear good things about ADCO and they are much cheaper, even when shipping is added.
