I am in the 27 club!!!
Got this in trade today.
Nickel 1979-80. Might have a little corrosion in the first third of the barrel, bit the end of the bore is good. I hope this wont effect the shooting ability. And a slight patch of missing nickel on the cylinder.
Otherwise it has a fantastic trigger and looks great...

Great purchase and a cleaned and waxed Model 27 in Nickel is as pretty as it gets.

Well, you've been looking for a chance to get your
feet wet, in that particular pool. Looks like you picked a winner!
It may not be perfect, but it got you in. No more worries
about it, and a fine example. Good for you!! Thanks for sharing.

( The next dozen examples should look so good!)
