Showing Off a 6" 27-2

[Retired W4]

Like many here on the forum I think the 5" .357 Magnum (N frame) is ideal in it's balance and overall performance, but this 6" from the late 1970's caught my eye and I could not resist. I would like to shoot it but it's been in the shadows for so long I will just keep it there. Out of the shadows for a photo shoot, a Model 27-2.

Please verify that you do have M27-2 in 5" and 3.5" or you are not finished.

I like how you think! I’ve got all 3 (3 1/2”, 5” and 6”) plus 8 3/8”

Beautiful 27 OP! Especially like those smooth targets!

Well sort of. My 3.5" and 5" are 5 screw guns.

One of my favorite model marked guns is this 27 nd.

Very nice! I’ve been thinking about adding a nice 6” to my set of 27’s. I’ve got the 3.5, 4, 5, 6.5 and 8.375 inch versions.

My 27-2 collection.
The 6” is battle scarred, scratches and some rust spots but a great shooter.

I was having fun with lighting and photos edits…

Yes Rick, you NEED a 6" 27.

That's a nice acquisition! The 6" bbl. Model 27-2 is a fine revolver, and it was one of the first that I picked up for my modest collection. I bought it locally from the original owner who received it as a birthday gift from his wife in 1978. I've still got my eye out for a 5" bbl. Model 27, and maybe a 4" bbl., too. Enjoy!

Don't know about OP........But I do.....They get shot too.....Never cared for or wanted the 8 3/8".
