I have PPSH-41 with what seems like some headspace issues that I need fixed, I've consulted with Dobbs but he is more on the manufacturing and production side and referred me to OTT but he told me he is unable to do the work, any recommendations would be greatly appreciated I don't trust the few around me and have exhausted my references, thanks
 
If you're in Alpharetta, go talk to the gunsmith at Armistead Armory; I have not yet done any business with them, but I stopped in and talked to him for a while and he really seemed to know his stuff. I can't remember his name, but I have his card at home. He was also telling me about a really good machinist he works with that is also local. The guys at Dobbs are great, but if they can't help, I would check these guys out. Let me know how your experience is. Good luck.

Is it a semi or fa gun?
What type of ammo are you using? Is it brass case surplus or new production?
Who built the gun?
What is it doing that makes you think it has headspace issues?

It is a semi auto and was built by TNW I'm using new production S&B brass ammo. The gun is punching/heavily deforming primers and deforming the brass
