I know I am digging up an old thread, but I do love the old S&W's!

In the past month I have been lucky to add a pair of Model 15's and a nice 6" Model 28 Highway Patrolman to my collection.

Those are really nice.
Back in 1968,we could purchase new Highway Patrolman S&Ws through the department for $68.

Those were the days!!!

S&W Model 58s went for just a little over that.

Thanks!

Back when I first became a LEO (Late 1970’s), I paid around $150.00 for the 6” Model 28 that I bought to carry on duty. When I transferred to the local Sheriff’s Office, we were issued the 4” Model 15’s.

I foolishly sold off my Model 28 and have regretted it ever since. So when I found this one down at the gun shop in town for a decent price, I jumped on it!

I would love to have a 58 someday:)

Eric,
Will that 625-7 be able to shoot 45acp w/moon clips??

Some 625s could do that. I guess it is the series.

MIC214,
The Highway Patrolman was an excellent example of the "economy" Model 27.

Some years ago,Gil Hebard Guns was selling Model 28s that had been in the NY State Police inventory with the state markings.
Price was very reasonable. Wish I had purchased one.

Wayne, Not sure. I am not a fan of moon clips. I shoot .45acp with my 1911 and SIG P320. I like the cowboy round better.

Eric,
Years ago,officer on the Memphis,TN Police dept had a choice to what duty weapon they could use.

One of them was the Model 25 that could handle the 45acp rounds.

This,of course,was some years before PDs switched over to autos.

Nothing round with the 45LC. It is accurate and has a proven track record.
