I'm in South Louisiana and looking for somebody that does good barrel threading with a reasonable lead time. Does anybody have any suggestions?
I'd like to have my bull barrel Savage 17 HMR done, Ruger 10/22 magnum (has iron sights....is this a problem?) and will need some pistols done in the future I'd imagine. I don't have much of anything threaded except a few 22 pistols, an AR .223 and a 10/22 I picked up at the last gun show. I plan on buying a couple pistol supressors for each caliber and will need to either buy guns, barrels, or have existing pistol barrels threaded if possible.
Do you guys find it is easier to just try and locate a drop in pistol barrel that is threaded or better to have existing ones threaded? I figure if possible I'd like to buy drop in barrels in case I should decide to sell the gun in the future I'd be able to put the original barrel back in the gun and sell the threaded barrel seperately. However, since I don't know costs for any of these services or replacement barrels I'm not sure which is the best route.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. If I'm going to be buying silencers for everything then I'm going to need a reputable company/individual to do any future barrel work for me.
Thanks in advance!

Re: Who does quality barrel threading?
Ritten precision and red jacket are the only two I know of in LA. I would skip red jacket because they prolly have a two year wait. Ritten is new to the scene but from what I see he does quality work. Im not sure if he is doing pistolds are not but I would email him and see. Just google ritten precision and you will find his contact info.
Re: Who does quality barrel threading?
I talked to Ritten yesterday (i'm also in Louisiana) looking to get a 10/22 TD threaded. He cannot remove or replace the sight on a barrel. Also, he' can't do a barrel less than 7 inches.

Re: Who does quality barrel threading?
He can do it on an AR but not a 10/22. He said he doesn't have the tools to do it yet. BTW, i'm in Denham Springs.yamatitan wrote:Weird his website says site relocation will cost extra.-M- wrote:I talked to Ritten yesterday (i'm also in Louisiana) looking to get a 10/22 TD threaded.

Re: Who does quality barrel threading?
Ok gotcha yea hes new and I imagine he will be able to do more as he grows and gains more tools.-M- wrote:He can do it on an AR but not a 10/22. He said he doesn't have the tools to do it yet.

If it doesn't splatter, shatter, burst or explode, it's not worth shooting.

Re: Who does quality barrel threading?
I had my 10/22 magnum threaded by a local gunsmith in middle tn. He threaded and relocated the front sight for $100.I talked to Ritten yesterday (i'm also in Louisiana) looking to get a 10/22 TD threaded. He cannot remove or replace the sight on a barrel. Also, he' can't do a barrel less than 7 inches.

Try JP grips and machine. Good price, FAST, and good job. I maybe have 6-8 barrels he do for me and all perfect suppressed. Even did Special requests.
