All three of you can swing it.

Ok guys got a few pics of the 27-2. It hasn't been cleaned up but tell me if its worth the 525 asking price.

Looks like a nice "shooter grade" 27...... from what I see I'd say $525 is a "fair to good deal"....... not the original grips (check underneath for rust.... looks like it might have had rubber Paych's on it)

In my local market I think a LGS would be asking $600-700.

I guess I need to hold on to my 28-2! I thought I overpaid for it, but it looks like it might become an investment. No box, aftermarket grips, but it's a shooter.

At $500 for all those, I'd be tempted to whip out the credit card. The electric bill can wait...

Why the 686 for optics?

The 686-4 is already drilled and tapped for a scope base and is easy to add a red dot or scope.

I have a 27-3 8 3/8" and couple of 686-4s , a 2 1/2" and 6". For a gun that is going to be fired often with Magnum loads I would probably rather have the 686 4" over the 28 4". For a collection investment the 28.
