Weld/Pinning flash hider?

[kengel2]

Anyone know of any shops that can weld and pin a flashhider on a barrel for me?

I would rather give my business to someone local than send it out.

Thanks.

I've got a guy in Baton Rouge...

 

[rockmup]

Yes Sir I do. Me

 

[kengel2]

Just one last question, should assemble the upper before pinning the fh or after?

Or what parts need to be on the barrel before pinning?
I think just the gas block and barrel nut since Im going with a freefloat handguard.

By the way it is an ar15 barrel.

ETA: How much do you charge?

I have a 870 express that a buddy gave me . the ejector clip came off and he tried to replace it and screwed up the rivet. The manual says it comes out but he did not have the right tool. can you take a look at it or recommend someone who can thanks. AND SORRY DID NOT MEAN TO THREAD JACK

Where are you at ?

why dont you thread the barrel ?

Maybe its a 14.7" barrel

Barrel is threaded, its 14.5" and I need it to be 16" so I dont have to do a sbr, and the only way to do that is to permanently attach the flash hider.

I would trade, but I really like the barrel I got. And if this build shoots as good as I think it will, I will more than likely be selling off my 16" DPMS AR.

I am in slidell but travel throughout metairie and new orleans daily.

And you can weld/pin a flashhider?

 

[derf]

If it is threaded you should probably just pin it. Welding and pinning might be overkill. Silver solder and pin might be overkill, too.
A nice pin job and you could remove the FH with simple hammer and punch, in case you need to change handguards or sight or gas block or something. Drive the pin out, unscrew, do whatever, screw back on, drive the pin in.
Just my opinion.

 

[kengel2]

Yes, but to avoid trouble with the atf and going to jail, I would rather just abide by there rules and make it permanent. Once its built I really dont see myself changing anything anyway.

Pinning is permanent.
But, if you weld, pinning is not necessary.

The standard is to pin and weld over the pin.

I understand that. But if you blind pin it you do not need to weld it too. you asked for both. Maybe reading comp owns me
