Good morning, So I'm just getting started with collecting S&W revolvers and want to get a .357 in a 4" to shoot at the range from time to time. It seems like the 28-2's you can find for cheaper but many are rough looking.
Would you all recommend investing in a 28-2 and hope to find a nice one for under maybe $600? or spend the extra money and find a nice 27-2 for maybe $1,000?

Not really looking to make money on this gun just want something nice looking and fun to shoot. What would be the most you might spend on a 28-2? Also trying to find a fair price range to look in.

Thanks for your all's input.
