10-4????
So I got two of the 3 inch buds model 10s. Both are marked 10-4 one has the matching serial number on the grip panel, but it is not a double diamond. Both are c9xxxxx serial numbers. Both have the narrow front sight blade. Both have a great lockup, very tight. I have read that model 10-4 were only made for a very short period in 1962, but I would put these two I have in the 1967-8 timeframe according to the serial numbers and the grip with the matching number. Any one have an idea of how many 10-4s are out there? Would it be prudent to dump another 50 into the gun for a letter to S&W to satisfy the curiosity of these two? Any onehave more information on these 10-4s?
