Very nice find! I find the Model 27 long tubes extremely good shooters. I stumbled across a 357 Bain and Davis cylinder along with brass, dies and loading data at a gun show 20+ years ago. The cylinder dropped right into my 8 3/8" shooter 27. I loaded up the brass and shot the 27. That long tube allowed a good powder burn and high velocities. I've long since sold the cylinder, etc. and don't remember the numbers I got. Sure was fun though!

Nice. I have its twin, S162839. Mine shipped in late January of 1956, and other Pre-27s with nearby serial numbers went out that month and in February. There's a reasonable chance yours shipped around then too.

Good call David. Roy just came back with January 1956 on this one.
