[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 3959625, member: 3099"] .357 Magnum caliber had just been introduced and S&W made (before the Model 27 was called the Model 27) the Registered Magnum. They were the premier topline model made by S&W and were special order only. You specified barrel length down to 1/8" increments, sights, sight registration, and finish. They came with a registration card numbered to the gun that the owner could mail in and receive a certificate signed by Douglas Wesson. It wasn't long before S&W decided they were too costly to manufacture and dropped the Registered Magnum and just made the same gun with a set of features and those were the Unregistered Magnums. There were only about 2000 unregistered made before WWII broke out. After WWII they were the Model 27. [/QUOTE]
