On the outside they're just a well used BDA and Model 27(Ive been told by a few that is actually a pre 27? and possibly had the barrel cut down?). For me, its much more than that. The Model 27 was my grandfathers service revolver for his entire career with Yuma, AZ PD. Its also the first revolver I ever shot.
The BDA, was my uncles service handgun, who was killed in the line of duty while serving with Newport Beach Police.
My Dad has had these for years and on a recent visit decided it was time that they go to me and and some point my boys. They've never really been safe queens so I dont plan to start now.

The 27 "had" some really nice bluing. Its obviously worn off on the end of the barrel and cylinder but not beat up. In fact, I very much enjoy the wear on this one.
