S&W 627 Snubby "Blood Work" - Bloodline Trail

The 627-5 came out within the past year or so. Don't think there is a 3" barrel. Not real sure. Most all of them had the unfluted cylinder. Just a few had fluted during the period that S&W ran out/low. The 627-PC I found had the unfluted version of cylinder. I've always had fluted S&W revolvers, so sent mine back into the Perf Center for a fluted cylinder. Took 2-3 weeks & came back fine. I even got my original cylinder back. Here it is & here's a pic of the unfluted cylinder:

$2k for an original? Wow! I paid less than that total for both of my re-released models, grips, and the holster (Lobo Leather) shown below!

I bought the first one my pusher got 4/10 - and a 'spare' 10/10. Actually, the second one came in lieu of a 327NG - it was just a Happy Meal more - and came moonclip ready. I bought it as the ultimate nightstand revolver. Right. A clear example of gun-gluttony.

The movie 'Blood Work' wasn't released until 2002 - the 2 5/8" PC627 was also originally known as the 'UDR' - 'Ultimate Defensive Revolver'. Eastwood's character's marksmanship was not legendary in the movie. He was a bit pre-occupied, however.

The 'N frame Performance Center' grips, SKU #414170000, shown above, run ~$50 + s/h + ST from S&W Accessories (via 1-800-331-0852). If you get the OEM Eagle boots - and they fit - those grips are still better!

Possibly my favorite revolver - uncannily accurate.
