Thanks for the thread and to all who contributed. I've had a few Mod. 10's over the years. Currently, I have a 90-95% 2" M&P that I bought/traded for on the Forum about 3 years ago. It was made in 1945, SNSN9628xx, and came with a very interesting and high quality spring-clip holster made by HH Heiser in Denver and has floral carving. I also have a 5" 10-5, which is a very nice and accurate shooter. I used to have a 2" mod. 10, however on a trip with a stopover in NY, the Port Authority Police picked it up on x-ray and needless to say, I no longer own that pistol, but that's another long story. In my experience the mod 10's are a lot of gun for the money; accurate, reliable and available in an assortment of barrel lengths. Everybody should have at least one.
