applying front sight

I am the proud new owner of my wife's grandfather's 1898 krag, which is in fine condition other than the fact that it has no front sight.  I acquired a new repro front sight from S&S Firearms, but am having a devil of a time finding a gunsmith in the Philadelphia area that will mill the barrel and braze on the new sight.  I had no idea it would be this hard.  Can anyone help me with this?  Failing that, I am willing to find a good gunsmith within say a 200 mile radius of Philadelphia.  Thanks!

Go to gunbroker.com. Go to krag parts for sale. Go down thru the listings. There is a company advertising that they can do the Krag work needed to install new barrels, sights etc.
Hope this helps.
