It would be great if I could find one locally but don't mind sending it off to have the work done.

Any recommendations?

Thank you for the replies. I've built a few ARs but none that I had to worry about barrel length on. I'll give the recommendations a try.

Thanks!

Yes, Retro Arms, 100%.

It's just so worth it, to have piece of mind it'll be done right, priced right, and you'll likely have it back the same week.

I also like my P/W's invisible, you would really have to look to find the weld. But he does that as a default, so if you want the weld to be clearly visible, just make sure to let him know.

First post most definitely nails it.

I sent my barrel and moderator off to John Thomas at Retro Arms Works on the 22nd of March and got it back today. Exactly seven business days.

His work is phenomenal. I had to take photos of the weld and blow it up just to see where it was.

Can't recommend him enough.

Thank you again to every one who made recommendations.

He just did a 14.5 Daniel Defense upper for me. Removed the DD P&W and put on a Surefire Warcomp. Looks flawless. Cannot even tell there's a P&W. Great pricing, fast turnaround time and excellent communication!

the problem with John Thomas P/Ws is something that "you don't see", his work is so PERFECT you can't even see it. I brought this up with him once and he said no problem, he can make it less perfect, just tell him in advance.
