Uberti 1872 Reamed to 44 special?

[Bardo]

I just picked up an Uberti 1872 open top in 44 colt. Anyone know of a place to send this cylinder to get it reamed out to a 44 special? I am going to call MGM tomorrow since they are local and see if they can do it and how much. If it is to much either locally or shipping it off I will take it back to the place I got it. He told me it was a 44 special. I put a 44 special case in and it looks like it only needs to be reamed another .035" to .045"

I don't know how much it will cost but have to say I don't understand WHY they chamber some of these in .44 Colt instead of .44 Special. Makes no sense! Have you contacted Uberti about a replacement cylinder in .44 Special? I bought an open top awhile back and it's a .44 Special. Love it too!
