Depends where you're located somewhat, but you can always send a gun off. I have used Tim and Bill Thompson of Bill's Custom Automatics for a variety of work and everything is top notch. They do a large amount of re-barreling work. They're in Shelby, MS. On the other hand, Dixie Precision Rifles in Brandon, MS gets good reviews from forum members also. Check out this thread for some ideas:

i also recommend Tim and Bill Thompson. I have two custom rifles from them and Tim is finishing up my custom 1911. they do great work. check them out at www.billscustomautomatics.com

DPR gets some great reviews on here and there are plenty of pics of there work. I dont think you can go wrong with either.

where are you located?
