Although I originally though it was a nickled Model 27, I now think it is actually a 627 as it has a .357 8 shot cylinder, and an untapered barrel. It isn't the original version of the 627 as that only had a 6 round cylinder, but have found [http://www.great-lakes.org/reviews/review-03-17-08.html#Smith_&_Wesson_Pro_Series_Model_627 sites] that refer to this as the 627 Pro Series, which features a shorter 4" barrel, chamfered chambers and a target crown muzzle. However, the S&W site shows the 627 Pro Series as having an ejector shroud in the same style as the 627s on the main page, but I suppose this could be an earlier version.  --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 13:50, 6 February 2012 (CST)

All the pictures are of eight shot Performance Center Model 627s. Are there any "normal" ones? (I assume there is such thing.) --[[User:Funkychinaman|Funkychinaman]] 16:44, 6 February 2012 (CST)

Fun Fact

For shooting in the Bianci pistol competition, Jerry Miculek uses a Model 627 Performance Center with a spurred hammer, Hogue grips (his customs with his name), and fitted with a custom heavy barrel. It's been his competition pistol for some time. For his quick shooting competition, I believe he used a Custom 635. - Gunmaster45

Main image not a 627

Isn't this picture from the main page actually a nickel plated 27? --commando552 23:00, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

I think it is. I've seen NO 627 that looks like this. The features look just like a Nickel Model 27. MoviePropMaster2008 21:27, 9 January 2012 (CST)
I think that saw it on the Smith & Wesson page, but now that i'm checking the page this image is no longer there, either ways i take the blame.

"Normal" 627s?

All the pictures are of eight shot Performance Center Model 627s. Are there any "normal" ones? (I assume there is such thing.) --Funkychinaman 16:44, 6 February 2012 (CST)
