I think Colt will not do this but I was wondering if someone might know of a place where I can have a .45 APC/Autorim cylinder fitted to my Colt SAA.  Must not only accept .45 ACP but also .45 AUTORIM.

Years ago, I had John Kopec do one for me (though I suspect Eddie Janis actually did the work).

Works perfectly in all of my Colts.

Colt's Custom Shop 'will' supply a .45ACP cylinder, and has - but they want to fit it and I have no idea how long that might take.

This isn't Rocket Science, by a long shot - I'd imagine there are a number of guys who can do the work, so start loking for an appropriate cylinder - a .357 Magnum or a .44.

Good Luck - if you get the work done, you'll really enjoy shooting it.

Vaya,
