@@joshuayarrington9684 No gunsmith required. Im no more handy than the average do it yourselfer and found the task very simple. I just cut it down to slightly over 18.5” using a metal cutting disc in a 8” chop saw then filed the ends clean, blued them and drill and tapped for the front sight. I don’t remember what the beads diameter or thread pitch was but when I ordered it on eBay, it said what the size and pitch was so I just ordered a tap and drillbit at the same time. The whole job may have cost 20 bucks and that was only because I ordered a new front bead to ensure I had the right size hole instead of guessing after removing the original one.
How did you modify it? I assumed you took it to a gun smith? And if so, how much did it cost?
