My brother in law has a 5" 10-5 that his mother bought new in 68. When his father passed (his mother passed a few years earlier), he received it. It was in the box with the papers, tools and receipt ($109, I believe). It was in a small makeup bag his mother kept it in. It had a box of 38 spl, bought on the same receipt. 6 rd were missing. We figured that it hadn't been fired since those first six. We ended up emptying that box (and kept it...just because) and it hasn't been fired again since. That was about four years ago.
He is considering selling it to me. He doesn't like revolvers. Never did. He has always been a 1911 guy. Bought his first two Colt's in the early to mid 70's.
