Rebarrel/New Barrel for a LMT MWS????

[MtGoat]

Does anyone sell a barrel ready to go for a MWS other than LMT? I believe there are smiths that will take your MWS barrel and put a new barrel on the stock extension but does anyone just offer a complete barrel without the doner extension?
It does not appear that LMT will sell just the extension.

I thought the LMT MWS barrel is a one piece? I wasn't sure since I'm still learning about this gun.

Typically there is a barrel extension and a barrel for ease of production....may be wrong???

I just looked at an MWS barrel and can't tell if it is one piece or two. The ring thingy that stabilizes the gas tube is pressed on at the end of what would be the barrel extension and the edge is not visible. I have seen an MWS in an earlier post with a Noveske barrel. Go up and you will find the picture... I thought it was a one-piece barrel, but now I'm not sure

This should be the post on the Noveske.

DBMG will convert a barrel to the MRP platform and you don't need a donor MRP extension. They just machine the standard extension on the barrel to fit the MRP platform.

I'm curious what machining is done on the standard extension to fit the MWS. I haven't looked at detailed pics of the extensions yet, but at first glance, I just notice the machined slot. What other work is necessary on the extension?
