I wonder what happened to the OP and his pistol. Importing a gun is a fairly easy thing to do, especially if you are able to carry it across the border yourself.

I have a Mod. 10 5. serial #D288xxx . It's in excellent condition. only fired briefly many years ago. No rust; a beautifully smooth trigger pull.

I want to sell it. can you give me a rough Idea what's worth.

Search function works great.

I'd say $400

value of gun

Welcome to the Forum. The model 10-5 was made between 1962 and '77. If you have the letter and number from the bottom of the grip frame we can narrow down the shipping year. If it is mechanically sound it is fine for +P ammo.

When was a 38 special CTG mod. 10-5 serial number D529774 made?

13 + year old thread and the OP was last here asking about another gun nearly 3 years ago.

Last age request moved to Revolvers 1961-1980, thread closed.
