    Need a barel notched

    I just got a new 20" barrel for a retro build and I need the barrel notched for the A2 front sight/gas block.

    Looking for someone between the 57 and the 15 and between the 60 and 210. Would also go down to Eastvale, Norco/Corona and maybe "Riverside" if it's not too far off the 15.
    Yes you can have 2 C&R 03 FFL's; 1 in California and 1 in a different state.

    Just for reference, you do NOT just notch the barrel.
    Re-using a pre-drilled FSB will be very troublesome for most people.

    You have to drill and then taper ream a hole through BOTH the FSB and the barrel at the same time while the FSB is held in alignment.
    That's how taper pin holes are created.
    This is best done with a new FSB on a new barrel.

    When you slide off the FSB from the barrel, what's left is half of the hole but it's not just a random notch.

    Good luck in finding someone within your specific search area who is actually qualified to do this job.

        A qualified person is as close as your nearest mail box. I can fit new, or reclaim any combination of previously installed barrels and front sight posts to within 1 MOA of mechanical rear sight wind zero.
