You would need a metal working lathe, the correct steel for the frame, cylinder and barrel, steel of a different type for the springs, hammer and firing pin. A good set of plans would help, along with the ability to use machine tools. You would need to build a rifling cutter to rifle the barrel after you bored the barrel. Should not cost you more than $3-5,000 to build one from scratch.
