This fine three-screw revolver is a Smith & Wesson .357 Magnum Model 27-2, Serial No. S 254976, featuring the popular 3-1/2 inch barrel, with a deep lustrous blue factory finish. The revolver originally shipped from the factory in 1965. Other factory features include: recessed (counter-bored) cylinder charge holes, a finely checkered top-strap with matching barrel rib, grooved front strap and back strap, adjustable rear sights, and non-factory, beautiful, deeply figured, genuine Sambar stag stocks.
There is no rust, pitting, or scratches anywhere on the revolver, including under the stocks.
The apparent scratch in the first photograph behind the cylinder latch is not -- it is a single strand of cat fur that eluded my attention. The overall condition is ~ 99% with only a few very light handling marks and a slight turn line on the cylinder. The factory original blue finish is mirror bright and clear with no freckling.
Early production Smith & Wesson S-prefixed Model 27-2 revolvers are highly sought after, especially 3-1/2 inch examples such as this. This sale is for the revolver only; no box, tools, or paperwork are included. Buyer pays actual insured shipping cost to your FFL.
The price is $1,650.00.
This revolver is also being offered for sale locally and on other websites.
