Description:
Guns Listing ID: 619124
The revolver is a classic Smith & Wesson Model 28-2 Highway Patrolman, an N-frame .357 Magnum double-action revolver (also shoots .38 Special). Serial number N524907 dates it to approximately 1978 production, based on established N-frame serial ranges (N430,000–N550,000 block around 1978, per Standard Catalog of Smith & Wesson and collector references). This places it in the pre-1982 era with desirable features like a pinned barrel and counterbored (recessed) cylinder.
Key Specifications:
Caliber: .357 Magnum / .38 Special
Capacity: 6 rounds
Barrel: 6-inch, pinned, ribbed, with factory roll-stamped \"HIGHWAY PATROLMAN\" marking on the right side
Finish: Original matte blue (bead-blasted top strap and frame for reduced glare, typical of the model)
Sights: Adjustable rear micrometer click sight; Baughman Quick Draw ramp front (standard for Highway Patrolman)
Frame: Square-butt N-frame target style
Grips: Checkered walnut target stocks with S&W medallions (appear original or period-correct; excellent checkering and fit)
Other: Shrouded extractor rod, .400\" semi-target hammer, serrated trigger; all visible markings match (Model 28-2 on crane, assembly numbers consistent)
Condition Notes:
Photos show a very well-preserved example with strong original bluing (minimal edge wear or handling marks visible), crisp markings, no major pitting/rust/corrosion, and tight timing/lockup. Bore and chambers appear clean and bright (excellent rifling from images). Cylinder rotation smooth, no excessive play. Grips are tight with good color and minimal wear. Overall, appears in excellent+ condition for a 45+ year-old duty revolver—mechanically sound and collector-grade.
This Highway Patrolman was the practical, affordable workhorse variant of the premium Model 27, popular with law enforcement (e.g., various state patrols) for its reliability, accuracy, and robust build. A pinned/counterbored example from this era is highly regarded among shooters and collectors for its classic features before later cost reductions.
