    I am building an upper and I need to find someone who can drill the barrel for the tapered pins. Does anyone come to mind?

    Thank you

    Original barrel maker? Local gunsmith? Use a clamp-on FSB?

    I know this an older thread, but for any AR work you absolutely can't beat John Thomas owner of Retro Arms Works.

    https://retroarmsworks.com/

    I've had him cut and re-thread a couple barrels, and just last week had him put an A1 FSB on my dedicated 22 AR upper. Mailed it to him on Friday, he received it, installed the FSB and shipped it back on Tuesday. I got it Saturday.
