Can this be done? I hear about people getting their rem 700 actions blueprinted and trued. Can a smith do the same thing to an AR-10 or AR-15? Would it make a difference?

Re: action truing for semi-auto
Making sure the upper receiver's face and threads are true and that the barrel nut's threads and the barrel extension's mating suface is square to the trued up face never hurts, but is something I've never done. Tighten up and go.
One of these days I'll get the receiver face truing doodad from brownell's. That's about all that's needed unless you have problems.....

No, I'm not sure how much good it does, I've only used it on one rifle so far and I didn't test it before hand. If I tear down a couple other rifles and do them I'll have before and after data, but even then there is so much going on with an AR that just tearing one apart and rebuilding it can make a slight change.
