Sounds like a great project. Personally, I don't have the skills or the equipment to do that sort of work so I would choose to have it done by a professional gunsmith. In fact, just last week I sent a beater S&W M28 Highway Patrolman to Mark Hartshorne at Pinnacle High Performance to be turned into a 3" round butt .41 magnum using a titanium cylinder and 4" M58 barrel.
To me, knowing the work is done right and that the gun is properly timed and set up is worth the cost of having a pro handle the work.
