Was this a favor? Are you a gunsmith, was this at your business? Need more info, sorry. How much time and effort do you have into it?
As of right now, I am being expected to provide service to people for free on a regular basis, while struggling to pay my employees, so maybe I'm a bit jaded or biased.

Friends don't ask friends for discounts or freebies from their business or livelihood. If it's not your income that's up to you. I help a lot of people with different things I don't make a living at. (I have a Bobcat skid steer just to use around the place, neighbors always need something done, wouldn't charge any of them). Just my 2 cents
The way I see it my good Christian buddy wants a 10% discount. How about paying me 10% more since were good Christian buddies. I learned a long time ago. Most things done for free have zero value. Sad but true.
I’m not sure if I’d charge unless it was my profession. However, if the guy who owns the gun doesn’t offer you a case of beer, bottle or $20 that says a lot about him.
If you are just talking about removing the forend and changing around the friction rings I wouldn't charge him.......I've done it dozens of times to my A5 through the years and it's a simple five minute job if that.
I'd also make him watch closely to what I was doing so he could do it himself the next time.
