Hi I'm new here and I wanted your guys opinion on this. I just bought a Uberti '58 Remington from Cimarron, 5.5" barrel, and am looking at putting a Kirst conversion cylinder in it. In order for it to work though, I would have to grind out some of the recoil shield to allow the bullets to slide in. Kirst will do this for you but at a cost so I'm wondering, would you recommend doing it yourself or having the company do it? Your thoughts please and thanks

here is a link on how someone would do it
