What is it about the 3.5" Model 27?

[SixgunFife]

If you were going to carry a 3.5 inch Model 27 on a fairly regular basis around your property and sometimes perhaps C.C. the same off-property, is there any "favorite holster" that one might look into? I would prefer a belt holster as opposed to inside-the-waistband.

I realize you're not going to get "pocket j-frame" concealment carrying an N-frame in a belt holster, but I'd like some suggestions on holsters for the 3.5 inch Model 27 if anyone has any.

While I actually prefer IWB for this gun (via a Summer Classic from Barranti Leather), I can readily recommend a Milt Sparks PMK as an OWB option for same.

Stunning collections everyone. This is the real reason I enjoy this forum so much. I can’t afford these guns but everyone is willing to share images of there’s.

I think that looks like exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks for posting it!

The 3.5"-barreled 27s do have a classic charm - OK, I'll say it - they are SEXY! The styling is classic, and when you find one with all the bells and whistles, the urge to grab it at any cost is almost unstoppable! This one is mine, and I admit it's a safe queen. Just looking at it is a treat. I have other similar guns that I shoot, but this one is for the ages, and needs to be kept pristine...

John:

I always love it when you post photos of that 27-2. Classic, clean, beautiful lumber and it resides here in the AZ!!!

My most recent Pre 27, dates to 1953.

Nice gun, proportions, looks, etc., and I can stop any time, really...

Now, if you don't believe the above statement, I have to admit that I did stop, it was hard, but I made it and am still in (sorta) recovery...

Here's the current stable of the 3 12" N frames in my safe.

So, it can be done (stopping, that is), just need to put your mind to it and join regular counseling meetings (usually at Pawn shops or gun stores.. )

I also love it when SmithNut posts those group shots of his 3.5"ers. It helps me to know that I'm not alone in my addiction... I think he attends the same sort of addiction recovery program as I do.

Yes Richard,
All of them look pretty, mine are just run-o-the-mill, dare we say regular versions from the other side of the tracks, while yours are - how do we say it - oh yeah "upper crust" versions...

Love the layout and all the revolvers in your pic..... I'm saving my aluminum cans so I can start "re-stocking" my 3 1/2" M27 bin, alas I fear they are all spoken for these days....

Great Collection!!!
