I'll add some photos of mine when I get it next weekend...  It's a six inch 28-2 made in 1983...non-pinned barrel but recessed chambers.
Beautiful photos!!!

Thanks

Got this in a trade from a Fine Gentleman and Forum Member.
Serial Number N328XX, stocks match, matching box and I have added a period correct instruction sheet and tools. I plan keeping this one and passing it on to my son.

I've posted this elsewhere, but here again. I walked into the LGS about 6 months ago and a young guy had this new in the box. He traded it for a Taurus Judge. I made it mine as soon as he walked out the door. Shipped Aug '70. As far as I know only the factory and I have ever shot it.

Yes, there is a spring on the trigger that keeps the hand forward and under tension. If you have removed the hand and replaced it, you did not get the leg of the spring installed on the pin on the hand.

My 4" with Grashorn Elk antler grips. It was originally a 6" gun.
I will be getting a barrel from Dave Chicoine next month that was a 6", and I had him shorten it to 5" and install a red ramp on it. Can't wait to get it so I can install it on my other Model 28-2. I removed the 6" barrel from the frame a couple of months ago in eager anticipation.  I think the 5" barrel will be very nice.
