I'm looking to have my Desert Tactical SRS 308 barrel rethreaded from 3/4x24 to 5/8x24 to accept a muzzle device to attach a suppressor. No one seems to make any for that thread pitch for this can. Any recommendations on someone that can get this perfect, straight and safe?

Where are you located? Hooper Ordnance, Liberty Suppressors, and American Precision are the ones I recommend in this part of the country, they can all do what you need.

In New Hampshire. Hooper and APA both look like they do nice work.

Best to machine down and thread to spec.
