The very last of the M&P designated revolvers, this one was made in 1956. This one is marked "E. Cleveland PD" . I love 5" and 6" Model 10's and the RB is my favorite grip, so I couldn't pass this one up. The next year the Model 10 numbering system started.
I have several more 10's and M&P's not pictured, a 6" M&P, a 6" 10-5 and a 4" 10-6 I recently acquired. I love the Model 10 along with it's stainless counterpart the 64. I will always have a weakness for what many call the "plain jane" duty guns. If I had to pick a configuration that's my favorite, I would have to go with the 4" Heavy Barrel Round Butt with the 6" models being a close second.

Hey Stan, awhile back I made a thread asking about the new Model 10s. It got very little interest; I see you have one there and would be interested in hearing your "review" of it as I am seriously considering buying one. The only negative to me (I'm not one of those "IL/MIM" whiners) is the round butt; just seems to me that a 4" HB should be square, but in the end, that's so easy to fix with all the grip choices these days (already have a set of Ahrend's in mind for it). What's your view on it? I want an old one too, but really interested in the new one.
