I had to look that up in the SC of S&W-and I stand corrected. Now if all the gun dealers would start labeling their revolvers correctly. Most if not all, call any pre-model 10 a model of 1905 4th change-which is what mine had on the tag. I looked up the serial number to find out it was made in 1954. And that dealer is a S&W collector with $$$$ worth of classic Smiths in his case.
Anyhow- your advice about the jacketed plus P ammo is very good. I wouldn't consider firing plus P out of my older S&W's. Plenty of newer stainless guns in the safe for the hot stuff.
