Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Smith & Wesson Model 27-3 represents one of the most refined iterations of the legendary N-frame .357 Magnum revolver—descended directly from the original Registered Magnum of the 1930s. Produced during the mid-1980s, the 27-3 retained the classic deep blued finish, outstanding fit and finish, and beautifully checkered walnut target stocks that made the Model 27 the premier .357 revolver of its era. Built with a robust frame, adjustable sights, and a reputation for exceptional accuracy and durability, it was favored by law enforcement officers, competitive shooters, and enthusiasts who wanted the very best revolver Smith & Wesson could produce. Collectors value the 27-3 because it represents the final period before major design changes—still featuring forged internal parts, pinned front sights, and the traditional craftsmanship associated with S&W’s golden age. High-condition examples, especially with desirable barrel lengths or original accessories, continue to grow in demand. Whether appreciated for its historical lineage, mechanical excellence, or timeless aesthetics, the Model 27-3 stands as a cornerstone collectible and one of the finest .357 Magnum revolvers ever built.
