Well, I did grab a S&W M27, 5" barrel...the 50th anniversary model they made in the '80's. Yes, I will shoot it - I figure manufactured commemoratives don't appreciate much, anyway, and I haven't seen a 5" M27 in years. I also don't have a .357 at the moment, which is a purely uncivilized state of affairs:D

The grips are pretty, but too large and too slick for me, so they'll get replaced by something I can hang on to & control. I will let you guys know how it shoots :)

There is one used Elmer Keith commemorative Smith locally, though it's a bit over priced for the condition, and yes, someone shot it, too:)
 
Enjoy it in good health. I just got a nickel 8 3/8 Mod 27, unfired, in the presentation case. I will fire it. Maybe Mike Irwin will send me some of his J-frame killer ammunition to christen the N-frame?
 
Shoot them all .... !!!


I figure you can't take them with you and the guy your wife marries -- once you're gone -- WILL! :D :p ;)
 
J Frame Killer ammunition?

:D

You mean in other words, he loads it to its potential?:cool:

That's one reason why I bought a M27. The N frame will take any sane load in the .357. I don't expect to shoot full tilt loads very often, but I like the option of doing so:D
