I'm not much interested in the anniversary model. I don't really like the blackhawk grip frame, and the 44 Special does not do much for me either. It is on the smaller 357 frame which would make it a nice belt gun. But I could make an exception for the 327 Blackhawk.

It would make a nice project gun. Add a bisley grip frame and a 6" or 7" octagon barrel, action job and a tight base pin. That would be cool! The GP100 is still a nice option as the GP/SRH grip fits my hand well. I just wish they offered a 6" barrel.
