The Model 327 is a single/double-action revolver built on Smith & Wesson’s N-Frame which is considered as a large frame, though this model is actually quite miniature in size. However, the size of this gun can mislead you because this revolver can shoot a powerful .357 magnum cartridges with an incredible 8-round cylinder capacity. For less recoil, this firearm is also able to fire .38 Special caliber ammunition. This model is a part of S&W Performance Center line of handguns. The Model 327 features a front orange ramp sight and a rear integral U-Notch sight. In terms of quality, this is an exceptional high-value revolver. The cylinder and the barrel are made of titanium, while the frame is made of scandium alloy material. These materials are lighter and stronger than stainless steel. This revolver also has a PC trigger with stop and cylinder cut for moon clips. Overall, it is an extremely small-sized revolver, but surprisingly powerful at the same time, perfect for concealed carry and self-defense.
