Mosin Nagant barrel need re-crowned Pittsburgh

**professor9** · November 4th, 2012, 09:42 AM

Just bought a Mosin Nagant M44 with a cut down barrel.
The crown job does not look straight, and I'd like a gunsmith to re-crown the muzzle.

Any suggestions? I have a list of like 6 smiths in and around Pittsburgh but would like to know from yinz guys about a suggested good gunsmith.

Thanks Prof

Did you ever find someone to do this for you?

Yes I did, and for anyone interested, Roscoe World in Pensacola appears to do nice work.

I decided on an AK style muzzle brake, and the barrel / receiver will soon be on it's way there for recrown / downsize / thread and muzzle brake installation. Also going to have him do a few other items as well.

Meantime I sent the bolt out to Max Shepherd to get the bent bolt. It came back absolutely stunning.

Will keep yinz updated. Thanks guys! Prof
