In about 2004 I heard there was a small one-man dealer in New York selling off NYPD 10s - he had images of all of them and you could pick which one you wanted. I think I spent $150 + $15 to my FFL. (Anyone remember this older gent?)

It is in great shape with only sporadic marks and some muzzle wear (which I touched up). Great trigger and will produce a 1" bench rest group from 25 yards with most ammo.

I had had other revolvers and other S&Ws, but this was my first S&W DA revolver - it is so beautifully made. I have had a number of beautifully made autos - including a P210 - but the way this 10-6 was put together takes the cake for craftsmanship.

Was his name R.M. Vivas? He used to post here.
