I purchased unseen (online) a model 10 heavy barrel from Centerfire Systems. I wanted one to make a project gun. From the pictures, I knew they came from a state prison and someone had scratched identification info on them.

I was pleasantly surprised. I have a good specimen with normal wear for blued steel. The scratches are there but not pronounced.

The action is the smoothest of all of my S&W revolvers. It breaks crisp and staging is easy. It came with pachmyers (SP) rubber grips

I have never purchased from Centerfire before but was impressed with the product and shipping to my dealer. $304.00 shipped

this is not an endorsement just a happy customer.

That is a good price, what - is it?

Could you post a photo and let us know if square or round butt?

Yes Pictures please. Also I saw photos of some surplus guns and they had the frame mounted firing pin. Does yours?

square butt with after market rubber grips

Congratulations on the Model 10!

What dash? Mine is a 10-8 I got at a local gun show for $375.
Heavy barrel 10s are one of my favorites, easy to shoot and hits right where I aim it.
