    Looking for a gunsmith within reasonable distance of Baton Rouge to cut an AK barrel, re-thread it to 14x1 LH and then pin/weld a brake back to an OAL a hair over 16”. The rifle has a combo gas block so it will not require any sight removal.

    Thanks in advance everyone.

    The guy is pretty easy to work with and has done a pretty good job on some of the stuff I requested. As I'm sure you saw on his facebook page, what you're for seems to be right up his alley.

    He is the most comprehensive gun smith around. He's been at his trade for over 30 years. He also is / was a shooter. He shot in the Panamanian Games before. He does good work, at a reasonable price.
