The first video shows how to cut and re-crown a barrel using tools made for this process. The second shows you how to re-crown a barrel using a brass, round headed slotted wood screw with lapping compound you can get from auto zone.

thanks for that i gues i can cut it my self but it will still have t be turned down on a lathe for the parts to fit on the shortened barrel right

Probably cheaper and easier to sell your current barrel and buy a new one instead.

There's gotta be somebody up there with a lathe. You might think about sending it to randall(ar15barrels) if you don't get some body local.

I'm not aware of any pistol length PSL barrels on the market. Anything he get's is still going to have to be cut, and turned.
