Gunsmithing Saiga 12Gua Barrel Cut & Thread

[PLeighton]

I have a friend at work that recently ran out and bought a Saiga 12 Gauge as well as every accessory he could find.
One of mods he is trying to do is have the barrel shortened and then threaded to accept the brake he bought.

Can anyone recomend a good smith that would be able to hook him up?

The thread on the 12ga is M22x0.75. We can thread the barrel, it is easier to do if the barrel is removed though. You might also have him check out our KA-SG01 improved gas tappet, it runs cleaner and helps the S-12 cycle low-brass rounds a lot more reliably.

Also, we'll have the first production run of our US-made Saiga-12 barrels available around September.
