Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Smith & Wesson Model 27-2 is a classic American revolver that represents one of the finest examples of craftsmanship in the N-frame series. Originally developed as the Registered Magnum in the 1930s and later renamed the Model 27, this revolver was designed to harness the power of the then-new .357 Magnum cartridge. The “-2” designation indicates a production change introduced in 1961, which eliminated the trigger guard screw, streamlining the design while maintaining the revolver’s renowned performance and aesthetics. Built on a large N-frame, the 27-2 features a six-shot cylinder, target hammer and trigger, and often sports an elegantly blued finish with finely checkered walnut grips. The revolver is known for its exceptional balance and recoil control, making it highly favored among law enforcement, competitive shooters, and firearm collectors alike.

The revolver is known for its exceptional balance and recoil control, making it highly favored among law enforcement, competitive shooters, and firearm collectors alike.
What sets the 27-2 apart is its meticulous fit and finish, which became a hallmark of Smith & Wesson’s premium revolvers during the mid-20th century. Many examples came with pinned barrels and recessed cylinders, a testament to the quality control of the era. Barrel lengths ranged from 3.5 inches to 8.375 inches, allowing the Model 27-2 to be configured for both defensive use and precision shooting. Its substantial frame and weight helped manage the powerful .357 Magnum recoil, yet it retained an elegant profile and superb handling characteristics. Today, the Model 27-2 is regarded not only as a formidable shooter but also as a collectible firearm that captures the height of traditional revolver engineering, representing an era where hand fitting and attention to detail were paramount in firearm manufacturing.
