Very nice, very nice indeed! I have one that is SN; RegXXXXX in 6" and am keeping my hopes up of getting one like you show here. Regretfully, I had a chance many years ago, one of those would've, should've but didn't opportunities. Enjoy your .357, it is a good one!

Now you need Ken Null of Resaca, Georgia to make you a holster so you can start shooting it and carrying it.

I don't have a Lobo yet. I have been using Leather from Forum member Eaglestroker
He does fine work, but I have heard Lobo is pretty neat too. I think I see some Lobo Leather in my future. What I really need is a custom Heiser or David Keith to make me something special.

Will she make me one too?
Alex...No reason why not!! She says she looked it up on Pinterest (whatever that is) and said it would be no problem....
Nice Jim, sure would be nice to see a 3 1/2" display in Columbus. Keith's grips are amazing, Larry

What a beauty!
You are a man of excellent taste. I have 10 S&W revolvers and one Model 41. They are all in excellent condition, but none are as classic as this beauty of yours. I am quite envious. Congratulations on a great find!

Hello Jim
I appreciate your kind words. being a S&WCA member may really benifit you in your search attending the meeting's is key I know if it was not for Ed Coronet I would not have my RM. The History chase of my RM was both Exciting and informative I was lucky to have found the Original Owner's Grand son who sent me much about the family History as well as some period correct picture's of their sproting good's store to add to my R.M. Package. We always' hope when we buy and Old Gun to uncover the Mystery of where it has been and who owned it and mine did just that Three Fold for me. I too would like a Non R.M. But suspect that is a tall order to fill. Nickel Pre-27's are very tough to locate they did not make near as many of thme as they did Blued guns here is one that came from the Late forum member Sandy Jacobbs.I made the 3-1/2" Presentation case for it by cutting down a 4" presentation case and re-flocking it. Regards, Hammerdown

Great Pre-27 in 3.5. I just love the looks of those. They are absolutely the best looking Smith IMHO!
