Iggy:
Well, I'm still here at the cabin, but I found a couple of photos and some notes on my thumb drive of my Model 27. Turns out it's a Model 27-2, made, according to my notes, and I can't remember where I found the info, about 1979. (Exit, 9/14/2017...Roy says that it shipped August 1979). Came in the presentation case, with all the tools, and all of the papers are under the lining in the lid. If I remember correctly. I currently have elephant ivory magna stocks on it, but don't have a current photo. (This replacement photo shows the Icory stocks...)
This might be the genesis of a BBQ gun when it grows up. With the right accouterments, of course. The last BBQ I was at was down in Texas, though, and has been some time ago. I was armed, but with a little J frame that was concealed, anyway.
Best Regards, Les
