Mike, just this chopped up 28-2. It's been Allenized.

It's beside me now as a house gun with its Lasergrips on it.

Here is a thread with mine, and another thread with more pics.

Allen, I understand those Tru-Fits aren't any fun to shoot with but they sure make that thing look mean. Nice gun. What's the felt behind the trigger for?

 

[Allen-frame]

The felt pad was a trigger stop experiment.
It kept the back of the trigger from biting the pad of my trigger finger.

Regards
Allen

That looks like a good working gun. The felt pad was a good idea.

Have you thought about using the sights like they put on the Night Guards?

Close up they work good.

I don't have one of the Austin Behlert conversions but I do have one of his special replacement rear (adjustable) sights for K-frames. I believe they were designed and sold about 25 or so years ago as early efforts were being made to build dedicated PPC guns, but the one time I got to talk with him, I didn't think to get any more information about the sight as he was busy unveiling his Model 41 S&W conversion from .22 LR to .32 wadcutter. Unfortunately, I never got one of those, either!

Here is mine a 25-2. There is something about holding one of these giant snubbies that's hard to describe.If someone was pointing one at you,well looking at that big hole in the end of the barrel would be VERY scary.

25-5

Ok, just completed a FTF for 25-5 today. Not sure if Jovino, Behlert or who, but don't really care as it is a high qaulity conversion. These grips were not included. Here are pics....





and my Effector

Beauty! A fistful of .45 Colt goodness.

My 1980-made 25-2 was chopped back in the '80s by a long-deceased Savannah gunsmith.

Incredibly slick action, 3 1/4" barrel, smoothed and radically narrowed trigger . . . and a pleasure to shoot and hit with. The balance is incredible too!!!

Grips by the forum's Patrick Grashorn (aka The Executioner) of Grashorn Gunworks in Greeley, CO.

gonna

try this here .. we'll see.. If this worked this is my model 28. It fits the description of Jovinos' work .. but I haven't sent for the letter yet.
My first purchase .. and still my favorite ... and yes I do carry it.

There are some great pictures in this thread. Here's a couple quick shots of my 25-2. It's one of my favorites. I sure would love to add a 25-5 to the collection though, or maybe one of those 28's.
