If I could just draw a 6.5 inch I'd have a straight.

I have several M27s. What I would like to know is there a table or a scale that shows which barrel length is hardest to find. Thanks

Just purchased my first revolver.

 

[66Park]

That's certainly a great way to start! I predict there will be more.

 

[DGT]

I'll throw this one out there. Pre-27 shipped in 1952.

You know how much we all like our 357Magnums.

all 11 of the N frames in the front of this picture are N frame 357s. 10 have checkered topstraps.

My goodness, the cost of the shotgun shells used as prop rods in that photo must have been enormous!

Gee, I'm ashamed to even show mine.

My first one from 1971 was a 83/8".
Sold it as it was too long for a back-up hunting but did do the "coup de grace" on my first deer with a rifle in 1972.

Picked up this "S" prefix 1970 model recently. It's a great shooter and a real beauty!
