A 5 round, L-frame in 10 MM would be good for a carry gun, but 10 mm might be a bit much. I doubt it could outperform a .44 Mag in the slightly larger M-69. Furthermore, you would need to use moon clips or carry a stub pencil to eject cases.
I think I would rather see a 7 or 8 round N-frame, something woods-worthy in predator country. My snubby 629 loaded with hot .44 SPL is as far as I would go for urban SD.
