Check with Elmore's . If I'm not mistaken they told me that the guy that they use would do it and make a thread protector for under $100

Call Bradis. The gunsmith they use is great. The employees can do the Glock repair, etc. but for things like this they have a really good gunsmith. I've had some work done from him.

It is a little far for you but In Niles, Michigan, just 10 mins. north of the Indiana line is Farr & Sons. Best damn gun smith I know of. Ask for Steve or Bob. 269-684-7068 They can do it all...........

Check with SSNFA / Beech Grove Firearms. I had them thread the barrel on my Ruger MKIII and it came out great. Good price and even better customer service. May be slightly out of your way depending on where you are on the southside but it would be worth it in my opinion. Both are site supporters here - check them out! Good Luck!

Make sure that the 'smith understands the specs that you need. We have a preference for certain brakes, These must be timed on the threads to index correctly with the barrel and should absolutely be concentric to the bore with run out of less than .001" over the length of the brake. This insures against point of impact shift, poor accuracy, safety issues and poor brake performance.

I tried to find a local smith, I ended up sending mine to American Precision Arms in GA. They have great CS and good turn around time. Plus the guys there are great to deal with or just BS with on the phone. They actually treat you like a person unlike many other vendors around these days.
