Looking for a good gunsmith to take off the muzzle break and put a vortex flash hider on my existing AR10...

Any recommendations?

Wilson Combat will do it. I would check the Gunsmith Top 100 Assoc. or whatever it's called & try to find one close to home, IMO.

Good luck!

I'd move this to the AR10 forum...Sniperx, Slash...lots of options over there.

None that won't upset the AR-10 crowd  

Actually, there were a lot of threads with detailed pictures in the AR10 forum right after the 2004 sunset period as several WECSOGers had at it. These would all be archived now, I guess.

As stated on the ADCO web site:


We do NOT perform ANY shop services on ANY .308 AR10 style rifle/upper.

I seem to recall ArmaLite wasn't doing the brake/suppressor swap either shortly after the sunset. This might have been a case of being too busy. Are they doing it now for customers?

I took off my muzzle brake with a dremel and then chased the threads with a tap.


The new FH just screwed on the barrel after that.

It's pretty easy if you go slow and take your time.
