The S&W Highway Patrolman is a utilitarian version of the "N" frame Model 27. It carries the designation "Model 28" in post-mid-50s number sequence. It was/is offered in two barrel lengths, 4" and 6". It does not have the high polish finish of the M-27 or the fine checkering on the top strap and barrel rib. They are strong reliable pistols. I believe the "S" serial series was earlier in the production life of the model later versions would carry the "N" prefix. They were furnished with the S&W Magna grips, someone has put "N" frame target grips on yours. 0 -
How much are they worth as i' gonna sell this 0 -

That are S&W stocks, aftermarket [xx(]

$450-$500 for a quick sale.
$600-$700 if you just want to wait out for someone who is willing to fork over that $ for a Model 28 with the wrong stocks. The Model 28 is a good gun, just not as sought after as the Model 27.0 -

That serial number makes it 1954 -1955.First year production for the Highway patrolman was 1954 with around 8400 Made think yours is a early 1955. Target stocks were a option yours are not the correct ones 0 -
The Highway Patrolman Model 28 has a good following these days. Probably because the .357 Magnum Model 27 has gotten so expensive.
A "pre 28" will draw a good deal of interest even with off brand stocks. Good luck.0 -
Being a '5 screw', it will get attention no matter which model. 0 -
Correct me if I'm wrong, but "diamond service stocks" would be the factory issue on this, yes? 0 -
I've decided not to get rid of it.
I've never had a 5 screw and the action
is very smooth0
