For quality and reliability you can't beat a model 10, (for 6 rounds). Readily available as you requested. I've got a 4 inch and a 2 inch. The 4 is a little cheaper at $200-300. The 2" is $300 -500 based on condition. I found a really nice 2" at a gun show last year for $400. They both shoot...

How about, split the difference? Less than $1000 and a little more than the .38. My wife bought a scandium 360 for $500. She loves it and shoots it straight. BUT I bought a model 60, SS, 2 1/8", .357 for $600 out the door. I added new grips and it's my carry. There is really no significant...

I may be an idiot, but I bought one of these exactly 2 years ago this month. Good condition, but not original grips. Mine had target grips added. Your piece looks to have correct grips. The SW letter dated it to 1923, serial number 113xxx. The lock up on the gun was tight and finish is better...

so, any opinions on a 27-3, blue 90%, 6" with papers and box. yes it's a shooter. a few round through it each year, S# AUB...... year of birth and value?

Gentlemen, Thanks for the ideas. (Maybe it's more like you're all psychologists.) 'peyton'- the budget isn't a real problem and 'buford'- I guess I really was trying to indulge. (You guys read me like a book.) shep and kjm- I understand the comments about the toy gun. pc and bananaman- I've...

I can't seem to find the right spot for this question, so here goes. Looking at a new revolver to keep at home, maybe use for some travel. If I got the governor, I would probably use 45 acp. If I get the 38 special, I would probably go for the 38+p. Any suggestions or thoughts. I've already read...

I'm in west central ohio. You willing to give up the secret as to the wearabouts? or is that forboten on this website? sounds like an afternoon roadtrip for some Christmas cash I have.

VM- thanks a million!- happy hunting!

this is a rookie question, but you folks seem to know what is going on. Just bought a used 10-7, (k frame- from your description?) the firing pin has 1-2mm of play (north to south/ up and down). Is that about right? I've fired 24 rounds- no problems, just want to make sure the gun is right...

thank you, very much! I realize I should get the letter for future reference, but appreciate the approx information.

anyone try this one, model 10-7. .38 spcl, 4 inch, AEP33xx, great condition, but looking for an idea on the year?

a follow- up, I just picked up a 10-7, .38, 4 inch, AEP33xx. Any ideas would be helpful. Seller also had a 'matching' holster. bought both.

i got a sw .32s safety hammerless, tight, 5 shot- a lot of fun on the range. anyone else with one of these? oops, guess I didn't read back far enough in the post.
