F&B New Super RedHawk 480

Any suggestions for an experienced gunsmith to smooth up a new Super RedHawk 480? Even cut the barrel down too?

Dear Shooter:
I wouldn't "smooth-up" anything. I have cut the bbls back for hunters who want something to carry when fishing in remote areas, but I even question that! A full size revolver really is about as easy to carry as a short one. Not only that, but if the bbl' is shortened severely your oower is effected.
I'd leave that Super alone.
