    I have a wrench and a vice and a complete build under my belt. It's just a cost exercise at this point. I could possibly recoup a bit by selling the current barrel to some poor subject of the PRNJ.

    That was going to be my suggestion. Sell the whole upper or barrel to someone in NJ. I had an NJ compliant AR with a bull barrel and I went through this situation. Wound up selling to my buddy which was equally beneficial to all, I was able to dump it off and he got a great rifle.

    I'm not accepting work at the moment due to domestic complications-
    FWIW, when and if CDI comes back to work I cut and thread AR barrels on the lathe for $80.00.
