Hello boys and girls,
This is my first post. I am an avid long range shooter with my own 6.5 creedmoor bolt action build. I reload my own rounds for my shooting. Now that info is aside, I would like to ask you all for some help with info about a hand gun my father gave me today. It is S&W model 27-2 357mag. He had it engraved and it is beautiful, by far the smoothest wheel gun I have. I am trying to look up the value in the blue book, but the book only shows a model 27. It is a N frame model 27-2 5” blued. It was a retired police officers service pistol and he retired in the 70s. Also my father asked me to machine a brass bottom grip cap. I haven’t seen one in a long time, but I do know they were called “Head knockers”, in order to knock out the perp instead of shooting them. Can anyone help me find info about this revolver and point me in the right direction of buying or machining a brass cap?
Thank you in advance,
Matt
