My LGS has had this shooter grade Pre 27 made in 1954 on consignment since September and yesterday they lowered the price by $360 to the minimum consignee would take for it.

So I thought it was time rescue the poor old thing.
brought it home did a quick clean up and added a set of Keith Brown Pre War style Magnas I've had for a while waiting for the right gun to come along. The original numbered to the gun grips aren't bad either....

I’ve already admitted to not being an expert on guns, but I do know what I like. And, I like that one!!! Further, at $360, how could you walk away from that??? Some people fall into “it”, and come back up smelling like a rose, while others just have the knack of being in the right time at the right place. Either way, you obviously snagged a great prize. Enjoy your new acquisition.

Great find, congrats! The only thing is I’m not sure there’s any such thing as a “ Pre Model 27 with Keith Brown Magnas” shooter. Looks super to me.

AWESOME !!

Congratulations on suce a great find, and getting that $360 off was quite the bonus, and icing on the cake.
I truly wish that S&W would go back and build guns like this again!
If they would, I don't think I'd feel bad about paying a couple of thousand for one.

I have a pre-27 as well. Not as nice as this one, but it's one hell of a shooter. The weight is perfect for the .357, holding down most of the recoil.
Wit the exception of my K-38 masterpiece mine is by far the most accurate wheelgun that I own. and is fun to shoot!

Your definition of shooter grade makes me think my old beaters are of a lesser grade. Maybe beater grade or salvage grade.
You got another nice find and those KB grips do add to the package. 2+2=5
