Prob'ly true . Had to fill out my first ITAR form last week .
To be clear , I had one of the adaptor nut fellows agree to make me a nut for $65 - ish and I have a machinist here who'll do the barrel for $50 - ish . Well , the adaptor nut fellow won't do the nut without the barrel job , too . I said fine , if it was not much over $50 . He has never responded back , so I guess he wants a lot more . My local guy was willing to make the nut from scratch , but he said he'd have to have a few hundred to pay to set up to do it as he's not into those .
