I'm sorry about your dad's passing. My father is still alive, 91 years old. Like your father, my dad was never a gun guy. I have so many. I wish I could share my collection and enthusiasm with dad, but I don't. Love your Highway Patrolman! I have a 28-2 six inch barrel. Thanks for sharing yours!
I had one in 1978. I worked in a gun store in college. That's where I bought mine. A wonderful gun. I sold it a few years later to a guy that REALLY wanted one. I do miss it. Thank you very much for the back story on yours. That makes that gun even more special. So happy to hear it. The story behind it is as worthy as the gun itself. Thank you for that. :)
Once I collected several model 27's I thought hey, why not a model 28 to fill out the 357's. I lucked out and found a unfired model 28 box, papers, tools. It is mint and I love it. They are only unfired once so this one is a safe queen. Yes the model 28 is a utility firearm which is even harder to find a new in box and I love it.
If you want to keep the action tight and reduce front end movement to a minimum close the cylinder at the crane of course extensive shooting will of powerful loads will cause looseness but it it will slow the occurrence.
You're camera should be position in landscape mode. Which is lengthwise parallel to the table not portrait. All I see is a narrow video that doesn't help the viewer.
The M28 4" is my all time favorite revolver... period.

In my early 20's I bought a 28-2. I was looking for a model 19. Glad I got that big N frame. Still have it.
