Any one know a decent gunsmith in the Omaha area to cut and thread an AR 10 barrel?

Scott at American Reaper referred me to these guys earlier this year.  Turn around was about a week and a half and I just UPS'd them the barrel with a return label.  http://www.fcwguns.com/ (http://www.fcwguns.com/) 

Cylinder & Slide does good work but are most likely back logged something terrible.  Same most likely with Maple Creek Gunsmiths.  Tried to get them to thread a barrel but was told earlier this year 6 month wait minimum.

Frerking's is a short 20 mile drive straight South of Lincoln.  Quality work.
