All I have is the five inch model 27-8. But I certainly do love the hell out of it. No Magnas, and no Tyler T. But the grips are Culina checkered Coke profile, Exhibition Grade, English Walnut.
I prefer mine over the 3.5" version simply because of the gold (brass) bead on the front sight, the target hammer & target trigger. It does have one of the smoothest triggers I own.
But to answer your question the official production numbers if you were to ask Lew Horton would have been 258 of the 5 inch version.
