Good point. I wasn't sure myself. I was looking at my 625 last night and the ejector rod. I was thinking some off the front, some off the back. But then I am forgetting about the barrel threads.
What was the shortest Jovino cut down a 45 to?
Just as an exercise, could one purchase a 325 Night Guard barrel after / second market? Don't know I want it that short, but I want to see what my options are.
Just thinking out loud which is always dangerous.
There are a couple of 625s forsale I have seen with 3" barrels. One is about 1000 and the other is 1300. I don't have a problem with the prices as a point of cost. I understand a Jovino is not going to be cheap. These aren't Jovinos first of all. But I don't think 1300 for a revolver that is still longer than what I am ideally wanting isn't efficient.
Has anyone made steel 625 / 25 snubbies on their own?
