I am a big fan of the Model 10, and I'm especially fond of the snubnose K-frames. To me, the Model 64 (stainless) 6-shot .38 Special snubnose is the right balance of being a "carryable" gun but also a fun shooter.
For whatever reason, I've found the Model 64 snubbies to be hard to come by. Well, today, after stopping by the local pumpkin patch with the family, we dropped into one of the nearby gun stores and there it was: a 2" Model 64 'no-dash', RB, in very, very nice condition, with original Magna grips. Price was marked $515 or $575 (depending on who you asked, ahem). The gun doesn't appear to have been carried or shot much. Lockup was excellent.
Anyway, I let the family know I would be a few minutes and completed the deal.
Serial number is 1D4xxx, placing it in 1976 according to the SCSW. (This conflicts a little bit with the information from the M64 section, which says the M64 was made until 1972 IIRC).
Anyway - will post pictures in 10 days. I've been looking for this one for a while.
