Greetings. I have always been a revolver guy. My first was a S&W K22 (Model 17) which was a present from my father at age 17 in 1959. I still have it and shoot regularly in my basement into a bullet trap which was gifted along with the gun. Over the years I purchased a Ruger Blackhawk .357, a Colt Cobra, and two model 27-2's in blue finish, each with a 8 3/8" barrel. The second model 27-2 led me here. It was an impulse purchase when I saw it in the dealer's case when I went to buy ammunition years ago. I couldn't resist having a spare. I've been shooting with a friend who has a Glock 21 and after several outings firing it with his supervision, I decided to get one myself after selling the 27-2. The second 27-2 has never been fired, and I have the original box, so I will be selling it on the forum after I do a bit more research. If the prices I have been seeing can be believed, I will have some money left over after buying the Glock. I guess that means I am no longer a "collector", since keeping the S&W unfired in the closet doesn't give me a lot of pleasure. I've learned quite a bit just from lurking the last few days.
