Very Nice Jovino Effector!

Of course you now have to find a set of K-Frame Pachmayr presentation grips for it. Those ugly old rubber grips would have been on it when Jovino sold it. I tend to like the grips that you have.

It also looks like someone polished the Stainless Steel at some point. I like it better that way.

How long is that barrel? It is hard to tell from the picture, 2.5 or 3"? Don't forget to measure from the cylinder face to the end of the barrel.

I think you have a heck of a prize there. You might want to start out with 44 Special to begin with. 44Mag is a handful out of a snubbie.

Default Jovino

The barrel measures 3". I am going to get it lettered and see if it was sent from the factory to Jovino.

GREAT purchase!
HAVE to love a .44 snubby.
The fact that it is an Effector just makes it that much cooler.
