I'm looking to build a custom revo and need to find a cylinder blank that I can have reamed to the caliber of my choice. I already have a source for a barrel, and i'll use the frame, trigger assemble from a .357.

I can only find cylinders for rugers, but not Smith's. Any help with this?

Thanks in advance.

Try www.e-gunparts.com

They might have a used cylinder. There are custom gunsmiths that will build a cylinder from scratch, but you would be looking at several thousand dollars before the revolver got built. Frankly, it would be far less expensive to buy a model 686 revolver and rechamber the cylinder that came on it.
