How do y'all feel about Smith N-frame .357?

N Frame .357's ..... beauty personified (ask Tamara!!) ........ I am lucky to have my two M27-2's .. one 5" and the other 8 3/8 .... both a joy to shoot.

This my Smith and Wesson "Pre 27". It is from 1953 or '54, back when they were just called The "Three Fifty Seven Magnum", before the number designations.

5 inch barrel. It is wearing Herrett "Skeeter" grips.

How do I like the N-Frame Smiths.......

Well, I absolutely love my Model 28-2. I bought it originally for load testing, and now I use it as my primary hunting backup. Wouldn't trade it for the world. Now, I just need to get off my can and get a set of Herrett's Jordan Trooper stocks made up for it to replace the Pachmayr grips and I'll be content.
 
I remember hearing the N frames were too big for the .357 back in the '80's. If I had known then what I know now :rolleyes: I'd have more 3 1/2" .357's..

Make sure you have good grips, clean & load 'em. Then go shoot. :D
