I'm considering sending it off and having it cut down to a 5" length and possibly putting a ramp sight on board. Opinions? No 'smiths around here so a recommendation would be appreciated as well.
That's what I would do if I didn't already have a M27 converted to a 5" .44 Special. Mine also has a ramp front sight.

Look at post # 10 in this thread:

model 28-2 in 44 special
