I called a few gunstores around Baltimore and failed to find someone I trusted doing a pin and weld.
I wondered into a shop I will not name [Which i've done business with before] near Baltimore.. and asked if they would do a pin and weld for me. His response was that he would pin it on but not weld* it for me because the weld was not necessary. He said that if the flash hider screws on his "pin would be so secure that a weld was not required"
I am fairly certain that the rep behind the counter was also the owner.
He asked me if why I believed it had to be welded and I responded ATF requires it be perm fixed at which point he actually started yelling at me with an outside voice that it wasn't required.
I drilled it myself and have steel pins / a $90 welder from amazon coming in today.
