Advice on getting some work on a Johnson

I was wondering who could put on a sight and bayonet lug on 1941 rifle? Approximate cost?

We have a couple of folks who might be able to help but I don't know they are traveling or otherwise tied up. One is Joe Scott and the other goes by the website name of "Tanker48" ....both operate on this site.

Sorry, but I no longer do barrel work due to vision lose.  As to cost, I have new lugs for $75.  The only front sight I know of for sale is priced at $225 on line.  Then there is labor to machine proper steps, installation, bead blasting and finally reparking.  When you machine the lug step on a tapered sporter barrel, it leaves bare steel showing and barrel needs overall refinishing. Finally return shipping cost.  When I also made front sights, I used to charge $395 for job.  I might guess $400 to $650 now..  Good luck, Joe
