A gut feeling paid off X2. Model 63 came home. The 27-2 went to Oregon.

OP, is your brother sending pics of that model 27?

He's currently out of town and then will be heading for Germany for a week or so. I will ask for some pictures when he gets back.

Model 63

The model 63 was always my grail gun when I was in high school in the 80s. I found a nice one in a LGS this past summer so it came home with me. I did inquire and someone here was kind enough to loan me a revolver chamber finishing reamer. I cleaned up all six chambers, the rounds drop in and out SO much easier now. I really enjoy that revolver.

He sent the grips back...

Apparently my brother didn't like the grips that came on the 27-2 so he sent them back to me. I was wondering if these are factory grips and proper for a 1972-3 model 27-2?

They look like correct football targets to me. But then, my 27-2 I bought in April 1974 new had Magna stocks when I bought it. I think the model 27 started shipping with targets as standard was some time in 1975 or 76.

The N frame stocks are now listed in the For Sale section if anyone is interested

Both happy and sorry for you. Happy you still have a local gun shop and that you found some jewels for sale there. Sorry you still live in the PRNJ and are forced to live with foolish regulations. Congratulations on your find.
