PIN & WELD AR MUZZLE DEVICE

The pin and weld service is generally utilized to permanently attach a muzzle device to barrels less than 16″ to allow them to meet the 16″ minimum requirement to be considered a rifle by the BATFE. This service permanently extends the measured length of your barrel and keeps you from needing to register your firearm as a short-barrel rifle (SBR). All pin and weld jobs are completed using a MIG welder.

*** The price below reflects a muzzle device that had been pre-drilled for the pin. An extra $20 will be added if a pin hole needs to be drilled into the muzzle device.

NOTE: Once the pin & weld is complete you will no longer beable to remove your gas block or barrel nut.

REVOLVER SPRING UPGRADE

This service upgrades your hammer and trigger springs to reduced power springs in your revolver, significantly reducing trigger pull. With most revolvers that are double action the poundage can be 12lb +/- of pull which can reduce accuracy and put unwanted strain on your operating hand causing fatigue. This is undesirable for long days at the range or competitions. By replacing the factory springs with reduced power springs the trigger pull can be reduced by up to 25% bringing the trigger pull from 12lb to ~9lb.

$50 ( does not include parts)

RIFLE CARBINE CONVERSION

Just like the Home Defense Shotgun Conversion but with a rifle with just a tad more work involved. Once the barrel is shortend (no shorter than 16.5") the barrel is then faced at 90 degress, crowned at either 11 degrees, 45 degrees, or a combination/recessed crown is cut, and re-blued.

SCOPE MOUNTING

Properly mounting a scope is essential to precision and accuracy. Choosing the right scope rings and ring bases is also important to the scope mounting process. The scope should be as low to the barrel and receiver as possible and mounted with proper eye relief. Bore sighting is included with this service.

*** The price reflects customer supplied bases and rings and does not include ring lapping which may be needed.

RIFLE SCOPE RING LAPPING

Scope Ring Lapping can ensure proper surface area contact between the rings and tube of optic as well as prevent damage from a ring pinching and marring the delicate scope tube. Ring Lapping is a must for today's long range shooters and ultra-expensive optics on the market.

RIFLE RE-FACE & CROWN

Barrel Crowning is one of the best things you can do to improve accuracy in your rifle. A perfectly crowned rifle barrel diverts gases in an even manor and leaves a clean surface for the bullet to exit from. Typical target crown is at 11 degrees or hunting is at 45 degrees.

Heat Bluing

Heat bluing is the process of polishing, degreasing and heating steel to a dull orange/red glow and dipping it in oil. This process imparts a beautiful temper blue on small parts such as screws, pins, rilfe bolt handles and any other small part. Pricing varies greatly due to prep work involved, any repair or reshaping that needs to take place, and the amount of parts to be heat blued.
