Those two have to be among the most beautiful revolvers I've ever seen. The nickel looks flawless on BOTH of them. I can't even see a turn line. Are you going to shoot them?
I tell you, I firmly believe guns are made to be shot--but I'd have a real hard time dirtying up those two!

Damn, I'm envious.
A lot of old timers maintained that 5" was the perfect barrel length for an N framed Smith (one of the few .357 mag available way back then).
I wish Ruger would make the GP 100 in 5".
The blued Model 27 was always one of my favorites - I had to settle for the less expensive Model 28.
The nickel 27 was a rich man's gun.
Two questions:
1) It's no one's business, but what's a fancy wheel gun like that set one back these days?
2. Was the 3.5" barrel a standard size, or special edition? I always thought it was 6", 5" and 4".

Congratulations~!
on some beautiful old Smith's fella's.
I own a pinned and recessed, 3.5" barrel UNFIRED S&W model 27-2
.357 magnum that has NO drag line marks what-so-ever; new in the
factory wooden presentation case with unused tools, and all of the
documents. This weapon has the "Triple T's" [target trigger, hammer,
and grips]; but is without the red-ramp front sight and whilte outlined
rear sight. My S/N is N432xxx~!
Oops~! I forgot too say that my weapon is a factory blued 27-2.
