I've been learning a lot from this site for a number of years now (every time I have a question about fire arms and google it there's at LEAST 3 good posts on this site that tell me what I need and then some), and have finally found the need to create an account to get a few answers I can't find already posted. I'm mainly wondering if gunsmiths can make custom parts or do custom work for me at a reasonable cost (or even at all). Can anyone make a 9mm barrel for a yugoslavian m57? I've heard of conversions kits for the chinese tokarevs, but those are nearly impossible to find. Likewise, since stormlake quit selling them, .40 super barrels for a 1911 patterned pistol are nonexistant. Shouldn't a capable gunsmith be able to make me one of these? Those are what i consider reasonable requests of a professional gun crafter, now for something of a dream project. I would love to attach a 10.75 in .460 S&W magnum barrel to a raging judge magnum (are these still being produced?) I know its pretty damn impractical, would be bulky and ugly as sin, but my god I just plain want it. Does anyone know a gunsmith that can do (has done) anything I've mentioned and ,if it's possible, a ballpark cost for such projects? I know there are cheaper and easier ways to shoot a gun, less obscure calibers, ect. but these are the ones that give that warm tingly feeling inside. Thanks for any info you guys can share.
