Barrel Threading Recommendation

Hey guys, my dealer should be submitting my paperwork today for an AAC Element 2. I’m pretty excited about it. I plan for one of the hosts to be this older model (no plastic trigger parts) 10/22-T. I need some ideas on who to use for threading the factory Hammer Forged barrel with the cool-looking spiral forging marks. Also, someone that could make a thread protector that would “go with” the spirals.

Here’s the rifle:

Ado has always done great work for me. The thread protector thing will only work if you are going to have the barrel shortened so they will have the piece of barrel to mill the thread protector out of. I don’t know how else they could match the spiraling. I just had a buddy get this done on his 700LTR. It was cut from 20 to 18. The thread protector was milled out of the 2" piece.
