Anyone Know a Gunsmith Specializing in Machine Guns?

[tricky9914]

Hello,

I am in need of a reputable Gunsmith in the Indianapolis or surrounding area who specializes in machine guns. I have a transferable Japanese Type 96, which was previously a DEWAT. When REWATed and registered, the barrel was left pinned, and the barrel in the firearm is unable to be removed. I would like to be able to remove this barrel so I can swap in a replacement chambered in 7.62x39 for use with a conversion kit.

I will only go to a gunsmith with a tangible location, and one who comes highly recommended. This is a very expensive firearm and won't be left with just anybody to hack on.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

THANKS!

Try asking Zach at ZR Tactical in Noblesville if he is willing to take a look at it. He's worked on a bunch of my stuff and is an 07/02 with a full machine shop.

In Indiana I wouldn't trust mine to anyone but Frank at AMA.

he does amazing work and has a near limitless amour of knowledge on old MG's.

Frank's not only the best choice in IN but arguably one of the best in the country when it comes to C&R vintage NFA.
