Hello,
I am looking to have my AR upper receiver lapped/trued and the barrel bedded for a tighter lockup between the two. I can feel a little bit of play between my barrel and upper receiver. I know it is not necessary and that my AR shoots better than I. This is more of a "because I can" type thing. Plus it satisfies my OCD .
However, I am having a hard time finding someone that will do the work or even knows what I am talking about.
I have contacted several local gunsmiths and they either don't offer the service or seem to be unsure of what I am asking them to do. So, I hesitate in taking my AR to them to have the work done...unless we are both clear on what my goal is.
I don't have to the tools to do it my self, and there are a couple of steps I am not comfortable with.
Does anybody know of an AR expert/gunsmith that might be able to do this? I saw another thread recommending a gunsmith with the initials DJ. I called and spoke with them, but not sure it registered what I want. I am sure they do good work, but they may not be a good fit for this.
Suggestions? I am willing to work with someone that may not be a "gunsmith" but that definitely knows their way around an AR.
Thanks,
Ryan
