Why oh why can't they make a modern version of the original 27 in stainless? I know they currently make a 627, but the barrel profile is hideous to my eye.
Mim parts are fine, 8 shot cylinder is fine, moon clips are fine too.... and though I'd prefer a square butt, I'd be fine with round as well.
just make a 3.5" and 5" version with the checkering down the top, light weight barrel profile like the original 27. I'd prefer original style roll marks but they could atleast make the laser markings deep enough that they DONT wear off, and for heavens sake finally ditch the damn lock..... or atleast give the customer the option of choosing.
Ok, so I also have a lock rant I have to get off my chest, so if you don't want to hear it stop reading now.
I apologize, but do they really think people paying $800 for a revolver are just leaving them lay around for kids to play with for crying out loud.....
I may be alone here, but it seems to me that anybody buying high dollar revolvers these days are "gun people" and as such they generally are already versed in safe gun handling, besides, S&W already does a few J frames with and without locks, can't they do the same with modern K, L, N and X frames? They put out the m&p shields without safety locks which to my way of thinking are far more dangerous to a novice gun handler or child.
Come on S&W, give me the option to buy modern revolvers WITHOUT the IL system.... Please!!!!
