chrisjohn Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Need a .40 barrel and bushing fit to a Para USA Elite LS 10mm, trigger work too. Who's the current go to person? Last used Benny Hill for mods on a STI I puchased through him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Best to just start pinging all you can. Many are not taking on small jobs due to being so busy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyler2you Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Doug Jones at http://www.acc-u-rail.com/ Does high quality work and prices are reasonable. He's done lots of Para work as well. Give him a call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronicTwitch Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Brownell's has a group of apprentice gunsmiths that aren't charging labor, just parts. Trying to grow that part of the business. Guy named Jay was at a local match this past weekend passing the word. If you're interested, I think they'd enjoy small jobs from the stuff he was taking about.

IronicTwitch Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 I'm assuming you wouldn't send them your unicorn custom gun. But fitting a barrel is a relatively non invasive job that would be backed by deep corporate pockets if done incorrectly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You cant take barrel fitting too seriously, imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
