M1A - Barrel replacement

MKC

I've been informed my M1A has a barrel problem and needs to be replaced. Which company would you recommended to supply and install a new barrel? Local gunsmith (Cody, WY) does not have the necessary tools.
 
If the barrel is in that bad a shape then the rest of the rifle needs a thorough evaluation by a gunsmith very skilled in M1As to check the rest of it, especially the op rod.

Besides a new barrel, at a minimum it likely needs new springs.

Been checked, all else is good to go. "Been well looked after but the barrel's past its use by" was the verdict, but I'll confer with Fulton about further checks. Thanks for the advice.
