The Smith and Wesson Model 327 is a short squat 8 shot 357 revolver that also shoots the cheaper 38 special cartridge. With an MSRP of $1,269 this revolver is not cheap, but with this price tag comes many premium high end handgun features.
The S&W 327 has a titanium alloy cylinder, scandium alloy frame, matte black finish, wood grips, and like we said it holds 8 rounds not 6.
Why is 8 rounds so important? Well many people have moved away from the revolvers due to capacity, but I would argue that 8 357 Magnum rounds is just as good if not better than 8 or 9 45 ACP rounds.
If you want a high end revolver for self defense, or just a quality gun to hand down to the grand kids, and have the money to spend the S&W 327 is at the top of our list or recommendations.
