610

Please bring back the 610.

I'd like to get the 610, but for me to buy it, it will have to be made without the stupid lock! I'd even consider one with the 8 3/8" barrel, with Target sights, hammer (with firing pin mounted) and trigger like the older Mod 29's.

I absolutely love the 10mm cartridge, ballisticly it is superior to several cartridges, especially loaded to its potential. Ever since the introduction of the 40S&W, most commercial loadings were down loaded and very annemic performance wise!

I actually think S&W would sell far more pistols if they made the M&P10mm...

I have a 610 with the lock, along with several other S&W pistols with the locks. It has not caused me any issues, but I've only fired them a few 100 times each (the 642 about 500).

I do love my 610, especially since I can shoot the 40 S&W in it!

I have a 610-3 with a 6 1/2 inch barrel and it's heavy enough that I cannot concieve of the lock ever causing a problem. Those who don't want anything to do with the lock are free to feel that way, however IMO they are missing out on some splendid revolvers.

As for the 610, I don't want it brung back for just a short run, put it into the catalog PERMANENTLY. Please S&W, take a look at what rimmed ammo costs today, 40 caliber ammo for the 610 is just about 5 dollars a box CHEAPER than 38 spl. ammo for a 686 and if you look at the cost for 357 Magnum it's about 14 dollars a box difference. If you were really smart, you'd have the 610 in barrel lengths from 3 inches up to 6 1/2 inches in regular production and also start building a 9mm moon clip L frame.

A 9mm revolver just like my 610?

I'd be tempted to sell my semi-auto 9mm to purchase that!

I would buy a 610, as well as an M&P 10mm (if it could be made to withstand the round).

Me too! I am fairly new to the 10mm round and recently picked up a 1066, but I would sure love an M&P in 10mm.

The only glock I have ever considered is the 20sf, but I haven't gone there and probably won't.

I would buy anything S&W makes in a 10mm.I too want a 610

Glock makes one and anything Glock can do, S&W can do better.

Why don't they?

Yup, a 610 without an IL is on my short list. It's too bad they cost a small fortune nowadays,,,
