Now that there is a 27-2 in the mix you've complicated things for yourself! The Model 27 is the only Smith with a checkered top strap and rear sight, fine old school craftsmanship you won't find today. If the 27-2 is in decent condition it is a total steal at $500.
I'm with the buy the three for $1500 crowd, and until last year, I'd have done it, now I would have to choose only one, and it would likely be the Model-27.
