Picked this one up today.
S&W model 10-5, nickel finish, 5" barrel.
This one is a real "beater".

Pred, here is my contribution. I think it is only a few numbers higher than yours.
Bought this for my wife for Mothers Day, after she found it at a show. She likes the "shiny things". Our only NIB revolver. They don't stay like this long in my house. She is debating whether to shoot it or not. But I also have 2 other 5" 38 special guns.

Damn! This opens an old wound for me. I had one about 10 yrs ago. I paid $199. A beautiful DPD marked 5". Pristine.

Back then I didn't apreciate what it was as it was my only S&W back then. It was just a "clunky .38". I stupidly traded it off for something that I don't even remember. One of my biggest gun regrets. Ouch.

These are really neat and everything, but y'all will have to pardon my ignorance. What's the difference in Detroit marked P.D. guns, and other marked P.D. issue weapons? I'd love to have ANY of these, but I don't see the added interest.

Just out of curiosity, what is the current price on these. Know someone that has 2 of them and may let me have one. They are the 5" guns. Larry

Larry,
$125 to $400 for the 5" revolvers.
I paid $125.00 for this "beater" a few weeks ago.
It's well worn on the outside, but the barrel, and insides look like new. It's a great shooter.

For that price I would have bought it also. I saw the guns abt 2 yrs ago and he was around 300.00. The cond was around 95 or better. Just didn't hit at that time and I know he still has them. I'll have to give him a call. Maybe he'll let me have the better of the two. Larry
