Default custom revolver smiths?

Hey guys, I've been looking at a couple of threads on Fitz specials and other custom Colts and Smiths. I'm thinking that I would like to find a couple of well used revolvers to send in for some major modifications. I would like a nice Colt and one Smith.(figure might as well have one of each dream gun)

Could you guys give me some suggestions for competent gunsmiths to do this type of work. It would be great if they didn't have a two year wait for work as well. thanks.

Andy Horvath is fantastic he has built Fitz specials including one for John Taffin. His wait time is reasonable as are his prices 440-458-4369.

Mark Hartshorne, Pinnacle-Guns.com: Pinnacle High Performance Custom Gunsmithing, is a top notch pistolsmith and machinist. He did the work on my 9mm 360J and currently has my 25-2 for a couple of small things. He can create anything you want and his prices and wait times are reasonable.
