All,
I think I recall someone in the Springs area replacing the nuttered front sight and adding flash hider.
Does anyone recall who and if they are still doing this? I almost think it was Hickman.

Thanks ,

Bob

I would imagine nearly any local gunsmith should be able to do that.

I would start with Henry at Colorado Arms Repair. He's a good guy and I use him for things I am not comfortable or able to do myself.

You can probably buy a replacement barrel with FSB already on it for less than a smith would charge to do that. Parts seem pretty cheap right now. Hell...you can probably get a complete upper minus BCG and CH for the same price...

This is very likely the correct answer.

if it's the 20-incher, here you go - It's $150 with the sight tower - https://www.dsarms.com/p-17258-dsa-ar15-20-a2-government-profile-17-twist-chrome-lined-barrel-with-sight-tower.aspx

Another vote for Henry.

Thank you all, yes thinking and new barrel

The truth I did get a new 20" upper for the rifle, but that turned into a new rifle by the time I was done. lol
