The early 627-0 "model of 1989" was a distinctive configuration, using a 5 1/2" full-underlug barrel, six-shot unfluted cylinder, round-butt frame, smooth combat stocks, and finely checkered sighting surfaces. This initial configuration was relatively short-lived before subsequent engineering revisions, giving the 627-0 particular appeal among collectors of transitional and late 20th-century smith & wesson revolvers. this circa 1989 example retains about 99% of its original stainless finish, showing little evidence of use beyond a very faint cylinder turn line and a few handling marks on the goncalo alves combat stocks. The bore rates 10/10, while the action functions correctly with a smooth double-action pull, crisp single-action release, and only very light lateral movement at lockup. Its factory box, manual, cleaning tools, protective paper, original-style combat stocks, and characteristic unfluted cylinder make this an unusually complete and well-preserved example of smith & wesson's first-generation stainless n-frame . 357 magnum. With just over 5,000 of these early models made, this one is sure to make a great addition to a smith & wesson collection.
