Hmmmmm...... If I might make a suggestion.... Leave the Carcano rifles just as they are... If you want a bolt action rifle chambered in 7.62X39MM surely consider the CZ 527 Carbine.....
Take a Look.....

Also look over the Remington 799 Bolt Action Rifle chambered in 7.62X39MM......

you should get a hold of "Perry middleton" at "P.T's gun, sport and pawn in Lamar, CO."
he can do all that, and give you a milkshake along with it. i've been using his service since i was 6 or 7 on my first .22, and he did a great job on it, along with a mod on my 12 gauge, barrel fluting on a 7mm, and many other guys i know use only him for their guns.
give him a call.
other than that, you could try bass pro shops' gunsmiths or just look up others in your local area. it's a fairly simple conversion, or just get a different gun in that caliber...
