Default Model 10-6 4” Ohio State Highway Patrol 40th anniversary

Just bought a 10-6 4” OSHP 1933-1973 40th anniversary model. Box has a cracked lid.
I’m happy even though I paid $500 for it.

I had to look that one up. Only 2025 produced in 1973. That would be very popular at OGCA.

While everyone knows what a 10-6 looks like, I'd like to see a pic of that. Of note is that the 10-6 was a long time standard issue of the OSHP.

The Anniversary firearms are now chosen every 5th year. The 10-6 was the issue revolver in 1973 (40th). The 50th anniversary was a 6" Ruger in stainless (never an issued revolver). The 60th anniversary was offered in S&W 4006 or Beretta 96 (which was issued at time).. Neither of the pistols were subsequently delivered although very few of the 60th Anniversary S&W model 36's were. I did receive the Model 36. Need to get a photo,,,
The O.W.Merrell is usually a single award each year. Not to be confused with the Anniversary firearms.

Usually not a fan of commemorative firearms, but that one is nice!
