You are correct, Padre. I used a local welder that does TIG welding, it cost me a 12 pack, and took him about 30 min. total. Much cheaper than taking to a GS who'll charge about 45-50 bucks for the same thing. If I had found this, a Battle Comp 2.0

which is a muzzle brake/compensator, and I think looks cool I'd have had it welded on instead. http://battlecomp.com
If you've already got a 16" then you could get the 1.0 and be just fine as a screw-on device. However, with the 14.5 I needed the 2.0 to make it in the caliber I needed (6.8 SPC).

Following your expert advice - I contacted a local 'smith who will do all the metal bending and then Cerakote the barrel for me.

Glad you all talked me down from the ledge!

Oh I'm not an expert but we do have lots of those on the forum. Glad it worked out for you. I had a great instructor, my older bro.
