I purchased a Mod 27 6" and am curious as to the age of the firearm.
The serial number is S191xxx
The revolver is not in the best of cosmetic condition and shows a lot of holster wear but it has a sweet trigger, does not appear to have fired too many rounds and everything locks up tight. Trigger is nice and sweet .
It is not intended to be a safe queen and also not interested in have the finish redone.
Welcome to the forums from the cotton and peanut covered plains of the Wiregrass! Your Mod 27-0 likely shipped in 1959. How about posting some pictures of it so we can enjoy it as well.

Congratulations. We would enjoy some photos. I love a Model 27 sporting the wear associated with its age.
