Very nice example of S&W in .45 Colt chambering. I have a Lew Horton model 610. Definitely, a step-up in 'collectibility'.

The 940 Centennials are a great little revolver, but hard-to-find. Back in the mid-80's; I purchased a Ruger SP-101, when I came across it, in a local gunshop. A solid, performer that does night-stand duty now.

I recommend the S&W 610 revolvers. The 3 7/8" version is the perfect-length for a field revolver. Excellent companion piece to 10mm 1911 autos, like the Dan Wesson Razorback; or any .40 S&W pistol.

My 625 has always been a favorite, and the perfect augment to my Kimber Gold Match. I'm a big-fan of all revolvers chambered in autopistol calibers. The 610's, also rock!

I've always been a fan of revolvers. But the popularity of 'wheelies' is cyclical, and they seem to come in and out of vogue. Their biggest plus is their reliability, simplicity, and versatility.

Here's my Ruger SP-101 along with my favorite cutlery-options:

Like the S&W 610's, both old and new:
