Default Need gunsmith recommendations for shortening Colt barrel

So a few years ago, forum member Twaits posted this revolver in a thread about Fitzes. I hope he doesn't mind me saving the pics and using them, but I was very impressed with it and have wanted something similar ever since. I will pretty much copy the contoured grips and bobbed hammer, but I probably won't cut the trigger guard as most Fitzes have done.





I've finally got a good candidate for the job, but I need to get the barrel cut down and the sight relocated, and my local guy can't do it. I'm looking for a recommendation for a gunsmith in Oklahoma or North or West Texas that could do it for a reasonable amount of money and time, or nationally if needed but I'd rather not ship it. Anybody have any suggestions?

Mods, if this belongs somewhere else, I apologize. I will repost if needed in proper spot.
