For those with the memory/experiences/studies of the old days of police work:
What was the daily user's opinion of the S&W Model 27 or 28 way back when?
Too darn heavy to carry, great for the hard kicking magnums, awkward due to the weight, better/worse than the Python; that sort of stuff. I've always liked the 3.5 inch 27's and a good friend has a Highway Patrolman I've always admired but how many agencies issued them and how successful were they as an issue piece?
