    It would help a little bit if we knew where you lived?

      I'm in the Buffalo NY area.I have the wrenches for the barrel/receiver so I might just do it myself if I find a used barrel, but if I buy a new one I won't be able to ream it.

      Thanks

        I rebareled one a few years ago. It required both lathe work to index and a chamber reamer. I found a local gunsmith who cut the shoulder for an 11 o'clock hand tight index. After I installed it, I purchased a pull through chamber reamer and gauges.

        I still have them and have rented them out a few times. If you go this route, we can set up a rental etc. Save my email: ed (at) sisuwest.us in case you need it.
