My local retired guy has hit the wall on this kind of conversion work, as far as age goes... I have a new blued Single Six Bisley in 32 H&R Magnum, that I'd like to convert to an 8 shot 22 Cooper Center Fire Magnum... Either make a barrel, or properly install a 22 Single Six barrel, and fabricate an 8 shot cylinder is there a short list of shops that could do that work??? Been pretty spoiled by my local guy for these kinds of conversions over the years...

If I were to do one today, I would send to Bobby Tyler or Mr Powers in Houston. I just got a little bisley 32 back from Bobby last week. Gorgeous work!

He does custom cylinders and barrels. Where in LA? I’ve been impressed with Powers work. Look at that #5 he did!!! Insane! Bobby does amazing work and his turnaround time is great. Add to that he is just about as nice a guy as you could hope to meet, win win.

A typo there, Duson, LA. Bobby Tyler and John Powers have both done work for me. They are the next round of up and coming guys in my opinion. Their work speaks for itself.

Fixed! Between spell check, fat fingers and blindness I ain’t got a chance.
