ORIGINAL: Ruger-Redhawk
IMHO 600.00 for a model 27 is way out of line.In 1985 S&W came out with a boxed M-27 50th Anniversary of the 357 mag. These were a limited edition. They are only bringing about 600.00 maybe 700.00 .There were only about 2500 of these made.In fact they are a couple on Gunsamerica right now. From 600.00 to 749.00.For a standard M-27 that seems outragious to me even in the wooden box.Like mentioned check auctions or

My dealer and I were just talking about these a few weeks ago.For some reason the S&W M-27 never was a big seller,really never did much.It is a "N'' frame,sorta big for a 357 Mag.I would rather have a K or L frame myself.

He can buy a Ruger GP100 .357>6", SS/FS/AS, for $500 NEW
But I think he's set on the Smith.......
