Recommendations to cut and thread Scar 17 barrel

[amedeo1227]

Looking for some recommendations to cut and thread my Scar 17 barrel. From what I understand, chrome lined barrels aren't really a standard procedure and require special attention. Im not sure of that, so I could be wrong, but I would rather be sure.

Anyone y'all recommend for the cut and thread, and then pin and weld a new flash hider on it?

I would contact Class 3 Machining. They're a 07 FFL in the Dallas area that specializes in that kind of work and have done Scar 17's.

Trajectory Arms does fantastic work.

Parker Mountain Machine does phenomenal SCAR work, they did the work on our Mk20 cutting down to 16” from 20”, shoots better that the original. Highly recommend them for anything SCAR.

Check with D Wilson in Colorado

Pin and weld he did for a AEM5 muzzle device

Parker Mountain Machine will be doing mine when the time comes.

Can you just swap a different stainless barrel onto it?

What is the operational benefit to the pin?

15.1" barrel to 16" no stamp needed

I don’t recall the founding fathers pinning things

But if I get it, and if you’re going the avoid law enforcement attacks > constitution route I’d just get a brace before I pinned, you’d gain more being able to change muzzle devices..depending on how the permission slips for the receiver are worded that is

brace before I pinned

If we're speaking to the "avoid law enforcement attacks" you can't turn a rifle into a pistol. You can turn a pistol into a rifle. So unless it started as a pistol or a stripped lower the only option is pin and weld or sbr.

Great reason to always go with 80% builds

Another +1 on Parker Mountain Machine.
