No. 2 For a Heavier Frame357... is the S&W MDL 27...this pistola in 3 1/2 in Barrel is the F...B....I....gun... But here I would get a 6". 6 1/2" or 8 3/8 Barreled Blue gun...YOU WANT A MDL 27-2....this is the PINNED AND RECESSED MODEL...they stopped doing that in 1982 to save production costs.....
I have one of these in 6 1/2" (I don't recall them being in 6") and personally, I wouldn't consider anything shorter. Even with the heavier N frame, they've got a pretty good recoil, but nothing like a .44 mag. My first handgun purchase a LONG time ago, and I only have one regret...I wish I'd have gotten a Colt Python instead . That's after getting the Python's baby brother, a Diamondback in 22lr. You won't go wrong with either, but the Colts are simply spectacular imo.
