I have a HHM-91 that I just purchased. Gun is in great shape except for one problem. There is a large burr just in front of the chamber, possibly from when the barrel was chambered or maybe a chrome plating anomaly. Anyone have any ideas besides replacing the barrel? Or know of anyone qualified to fix it? Preferably around Phoenix, AZ or maybe even Tucson?

How did you find it? Run a cleaning rod down there and patch it out good, make sure its a 'burr'

I cleaned the gun out with patches and brush until the patches came clean. The patches would hang up just infront of the chamber and came out torn. I can visually see the piece of metal sticking out into the bore. It looks like it was peeled back by the chamber reamer. (I borrowed a friends bore scope to get a better look at it. It is actually so big that I can not get a patch past it if I use a .30 cal brass button type jag and it also destroyed a stainless tornado style brush. I am amazed that the prior owner shot it as he possibly had dangerous pressures due to the obstruction.
