I need to have 3 rifles threaded for suppressors in the DFW area. Used the search and found several threads that mentioned Atwell Tactical and Class3machining were recommended.

Emailed Atwell several months ago but never got a response. Pity because they seem to be in Richardson which is where I live.

I'd love to go with class3machining based on the reviews - but from what I understand - they require you to disassemble and only accept barrels that are mailed.

Any other sources in the DFW area for barrel threading that aren't Atwell or Class3? Need a place where I can drop off my fully assembled rifles. Don't have the time or tools to disassemble. I'd be happy to pay extra for disassembly.

Atwell is good as well as Morgan at has class3machining and he is in rowlett. Those 2 are good friends. Class3machining goes by dallasshooting supplies on here


lf the saying "Liar, Liar your pants on fire" were true
Mainstream news might be fun to watch

Would have loved to go through Atwell since they are down the street - but never got a response when I emailed asking for a quote. Might try emailing again in case my email slipped through the cracks.

class3machining seems to be highly recommended on various forums. Unfortunately, they only accept barrels and everything must be shipped. If I had the time - I'd go with them.

I watched several youtube videos on disassembling the rifles I need to be threaded - it's doable - but I'd have to get a vice and spend time disassembling/assembling. Would rather pay extra $$$ to have someone do it for me. My time is limited between family and work - so I don't mind forking over the extra cash to simply drop off the assembled rifles and pick up when ready grin

Hoping there is at least another option in the DFW area that comes recommended.

Morgan has threaded several of my barreled action assemblies. Just take everything off the action - scope, rings, base, trigger, and the bolt.
He's threaded over a dozen of barrel's and barreled actions for me.
I also took all of my stuff directly to him instead of shipping it. Morgan is a great guy to deal with.

hmm... if i can get by with still having the action on and remove everything else... that may work!

thanks for the info Txhillbilly.

Thanks guys!

Ya in action is good to go

With 3 we can setup a drop off, but mail in is much faster turnaround.

I no longer do most drop offs with my heavy workload, with pirateship.com or shipstation its dirt cheap to ship now. You will pay about a 1/3 of what you would at post office.
