Model 27 Picture Thread

[semperfi71]

Ya'll have beautiful handguns and photography.

I think the L-Frame S&W .357s are the best overall in size, durability, and portability. However I also think you must have at least one M27 (or variants) to qualify as a true S&W nut!

Some of those 27s.. I just don't have the words...

With the gold boxes... sigh*

The 27s are obviously the S&W "flagship" guns and threads like this one prove it. I'll add a picture too.....

Well, I am certainly not a photographer as you can see by the picture but, ......here is a picture of my 1976 Model 27-2.

Here are a dozen .357 Magnums, mostly pre 27's, and one Model 27, all with 3½" barrels and all in their correct Gold boxes. For a variety of reasons I no longer all of them but I still have most of them.

This is both amazing and really sick in an almost holy way.!!!!!

Oh alright, if I must. Model 27-2 with "no bark" elk stag grips from Grashorn's.

After some of the previous posts I feel almost ashamed for owning only one model 27!

Here she is, 27-2 all original from 1975-76.

My only 27-2 is a salvage job. Found a very badly pitted 3.5" in a local gun shop. The original owner had left it in a vinyl gun rug under the seat of his truck. The flannel liner had absorbed moisture and held it against the gun until the original finish was ruined. The shop sold it to me cheep and I sent it to my gun smith, a real S&W guy. He round butted it, changed the trigger and cleaned up the action, then bead blasted off the rust and all but the deepest pits. A blue job and front sight insert finished it.

The end result is far from original but turned a ruined M27 into a excellent holster/carry gun that shoots as well as any I've ever owned.

They are a beautiful handgun. Love the pics. I picked one up at a aution years ago but when I got it home it had a few places it started to flake, I'm sending it back to S&W to have them refinish it.
