So you got that one......I was thinking about bidding on it but lost track of it when I went out of town on a course.....glad you won the bid. Now I don't feel so bad as you obviously appreciate what you have... I lucked out on a nearly new 10-5 with the thin/pencil barrel not too long ago and absolutely love it. The model 10 is truly a classic revolver that is a far better self defense choice than many others that cost waaaay more.
