What did the leprechaun charge and what color was his unicorn?
I'm talkin' 'bout the REAL model 60. The fixed sight .38 Special version they made years ago.
Not them new-fangled jobbies with the MIM parts and a big ol' zit on it's side.
5" 27. /thread.
I have a lot of automatics...but only 1 revolver....the 686 is awesome...great shooter and fun to take to the range.
Simple.
Get a 627PC
Options on barrel length...I like the 'Bloodwork' length.

I voted the Model 66, preferably with a 4" barrel. I have a Model 19 with a 4" barrel in nickel finish and it fills every role that I can think of for a revolver.....Accurate to a "t," easy to carry, easily concealed (with the right clothes,) and it could be used for hunting deer or such in a pinch with the right loads. Now, that being said, alot will depend on which feels better/looks more attractive to you. I also have the blued version of the 686, the Model 586 in 4" barrel length. It will do everything the Model 19 will, and then some (a fuller diet of .357 Magnum,) but it is just not as easily concealed by me. I had a model 60 at one point, but let it go due to the trade off of weight vs. capacity vs. NOT fun to shoot with .357 at all. Again, the choice is yours. Be warned though, Smith & Wesson revolvers seem to be an addiction.
What is the name of this style grip? And is this a K frame?

This is one of the newer Smiths in which I'm not that familiar. I'd guess it to be a N frame. The grips I'd call combat style.
It is an N-frame round butt, *27, guessing model 327. Those are referred to as "Boot Grips". They can be had from several different makers.
They can be found for pretty much any gun. And it refers more to the minimal design, particularly in that they don't extend past the bottom of the grip frame (on full frame guns, that doesn't apply to the later Ruger designs). Typically found mostly for round butt frames, but are also seen on square butts.
