For my next project I would really like to take the stock barrel that came with me Etek 3 AM and bore it out so that I can use freak inserts in it. I know that I don't have to equipment to do this for my self so I'm gonna have to get a machine shop to do it for me. I would like to deal with someone local but if you can suggest a place that has done work like this before then I would feel more than comfortatable sending it to them. So can someone please help me out?

he doesnt list the PE barrel as one of the barrels he will bore, so you may want to shoot him a pm and ask.

yea I already talked to that guy and he said that he has never done one of those barrels before and doesn't want to mess mine up. if I took it to a local machine shop and a freak insert would they not be able to figure it out for me?
