Yes they did make mod. 10 3 inch HB nickle revolvers. I have seen 2 and was luckey enough to buy both and dumb enough to let them get away for something I thought I wanted more. Both were 10-8 variations. If I am ever fortunate enough to find a third I won't make the same mistake again.

model 64-5 3" RB I will take it.

Coaltminer no need to apologize for long post,I get on this forum to read and learn. I also should have written in my original post that I am not really interested in getting rid of this model 10 because it looks good alongside my 3 inch model 13 and 3 inch model 65. I think I am developing an...

I have a nickle 3 inch round butt model 10 with a 17d prefix in the serial number which should mean a 1982 year of manufacture. The gun is in excellent condition.

That could be it. The guy called it a 63 and that's what i assumed it was. Thanks diamondback.

I was at a gunshow today and saw a model 63 and on the right side of the barrel it said .22 m. r. f. instead of .22 long rifle. Price was $375.It didn't appear that the lettering had been altered. maybe I should go back tomorrow for a closer examination.

Could anyone tell me an approximate value of a model 63 6 shot .22 magnum?
