In the summer of 2009 my wife and I took a road trip up the East Coast to Boston. We spent several days in NYC visiting our daughters. We enjoyed walking around downtown seeing Times Square, etc. While at St. Patrick's Cathedral I saw a NYC policeman standing outside the main entrance. I noticed he was carrying what looked to be a plain S&W M-10 type revolver. It may have been a heavy barrel, but that I couldn't see. He was certainly armed with a revolver and it was certainly a S&W .38 Special. It had the larger S&W target type grips.
