What are the basic differences between the Model 10 and a 36 (2").
As I understand, 10 is the K whereas the 36 is a J...
Appreciate any input or someone who has-or-owned both... pro's-con's.
Thanks

5 rounds for the 36 vs. 6 for the 10. Bigger hands will get along better with a K grip frame and it is marginally more difficult to conceal. Most will find the model 10 easier to fire accurately due to the size difference.

I'm assuming you're asking about the snub versions of each revolver, for comparison's sake?

Yes... the 2" for each.

Alan is spot on. Mod 10 a little heavier. If RB with PC grips, a delight to carry and shoot. Heck, buy one of each, and you decide. Thats the fun part.

The 36 can be pocket carried (although the lighter J's are more popular for that) where as that Model 10 is going to be far more difficult for that. The double action trigger is MUCH better in the 10 than the 36 (at least to me). I see the J frame as a back up gun and the 10 as a primary; however you will find legions out there who use a J frame as a primary CCW and I can't say they are wrong.

Have a 36 (no-dash) coming shortly...
Been looking at the 10s for the K and 6-rnd... have never shot one.
