...no clue... It even costs $99.00 to have the Field Grade finish put on a Premier Grade. And the only difference that I know of is the Premier Grade 83 has screw adjustable windage built into the rear sight. The 83 Field Grade and 97 Premier Grade guns are drift.
Since all but one of the FA revolvers I have bought have been used it doesn't really make much difference to me as the warranty isn't transferable anyway.
Go over and look on GunsInternational and GunsAmerica...there are LOTS of 83s and 97s on the market right now.
