According to the last e-mail I got from him he wants to keep it 2-3 hour's drive from the Destin/Fort Walton Beach area or from his folk's hometown of Beaufort, SC.

My boss got one of his suppressors installed at Lock and Gunsmith in Pensacola, FL. The phone number is (850) 434-2656. I have no personal knowledge of this shop, but my boss was satisfied with the work/price. Another gunsmith who was supposed to be good botched the initial installation (crooked threads, suppressor was not inline with bore). The smith at Lock and Gunsmith cut the bad threads off, re-crowned the barrel, cut new threads and the suppressor mounted correctly.
If he does try Lock and Gunsmith, please report back and let me know how it went.

That's good to know, I'll pass it on. According to the last e-mail I got from him, he ordered a Holland QD brake and will have Rick Rankin do the MB install.
Thanks!
