The Smith & Wesson Model 28 also known as the Highway Patrolman
is an N-frame revolver chambered for the .357 Magnum cartridge, in
production from 1954 to 1986. It is a high-quality matte-finished
bead-blasted version of the S&W Model 27 and was issued to multiple
law enforcement agencies in the United States as well as a few European
ones.
This model gun from Tanaka is a faithful replica of the
Highway Patrolman. Tanaka has truly crafted a gem that, at first glance,
looks as if it is a metal gun. However, this detailed finish can
easily deceive even the keen-eyed among us, as the revolver is made of
high-quality ABS plastic. Do not be fooled, though plastic, nothing
about his M66 can be considered “cheap” as it carries a fair amount of
weight and when paired with an assortment of metal parts, it certainly
feels as if it’s a metal gun. Metal parts such as the trigger and
cylinder give the pistol a real-life-like aesthetic making it not only a
great choice for collectors but it can even be used in film or cosplay
as a prop!
The operation of this model gun is a joy as the double
action is smooth and direct, pulling the trigger slowly feels buttery
with no “grit” feeling at all. The trigger breaks nicely and its reset
is crisp and very positive, leading to the sound of the cylinder
rotating readying the pistol for the next shot. This exemplifies the
effort Tanaka put in to make this revolver stand out.
Please note that this is a non-firing model gun.
