Hello all, I just got the pictures I asked for of the firearm without the grips on it. It matches the same firearm I have. I believe it to be a Jovino. I'm not sure how good the nickel is but I think the buy now price is right! Happy Shooting! Boats www.gunbroker.com/item/831082730 |

That whole Jovino thing is a slippery slope/black hole.
Without the box it's hard to know.....
What can you tell from under the grips?

The frame's been cut be a close fit to k and l frame pachmayr compac grips. It would have been a square butt N frame to start with. They also smoothed out the target trigger, tear dropped the hammer and put in the ball dent lock up. If I didn't have one already I would have already bought it. Happy Shooting. Boats |

Has all the hallmarks of a Jovino. Sure, it could be the work of someone else. Lots of people did similar stuff. Some, like Austin Behlert, were masters. Some were hacks. The gun in the auction is worth chasing. Looks like a good one. |

Someone got a deal! It went for $920.00. That wouldn't even pay for the custom work on one these days.
