The Smith & Wesson Model 327 Performance Center revolver integrates advanced material engineering with refined handgun craftsmanship. Chambered in .357 Magnum, this 8-shot revolver provides a robust yet compact platform optimized for personal defense applications and structured range training protocols.
Key Features
Scandium Alloy N-Frame
The lightweight Scandium alloy N-frame significantly reduces the revolver’s overall mass without compromising structural integrity. This material selection is critical for maintaining control and operational stability in a compact .357 Magnum platform, facilitating practical carry and deployment.
Titanium Cylinder & Barrel
An 8-round titanium cylinder provides increased ammunition capacity while contributing to the revolver’s reduced carry weight and inertia. The 2-inch titanium/stainless steel barrel construction offers superior wear resistance and thermal stability, optimizing ballistic consistency and mitigating recoil impulse for enhanced shot recovery during rapid fire sequences.
Performance Center Tuned Action
Each Model 327 undergoes Performance Center tuning, delivering a consistent and predictable double-action/single-action trigger pull. The action exhibits a precise reset, complemented by a factory-installed trigger stop that limits overtravel, facilitating rapid and accurate shot placement under dynamic conditions.
Wood Grip
The ergonomic wood grip ensures a secure interface between the operator and the firearm. Its traditional design prioritizes positive retention and efficient recoil management, contributing to repeatable shot consistency and overall operational control.
