***336- Waited a good while to find this one, & wouldn't you know they had two. The other was a Registered Magnum (pre-27?) in near mint condition, though at a much higher price. This shop is mostly walnut & blued steel, owner does a lot of traveling & networking to keep the racks & cases well furnished. Got a Marlin 39A there at a good price as well some time back.
@series guy- Indeed it does! First time out was doing better at 25 yards than with any other handgun. Ideal (for me anyway) sights, long barrel, & weight are all beneficial. Feared the big frame & target stocks might be tough for my average size hands, but it was the opposite- felt more in control of the revolver than with my 686-1 or 13-4. Especially during double action pulls, despite the 27-2 being a pound or two heavier in pull weight than the others.
@bigmtnman- You ain't kidding! Already doing little checking on shooter grade 28 prices, something to help share the load so to speak.
