My first Model 10

[Cornhusker]

It's a 10-5, and I think it was made in 1969
Pretty sure these are not the right grips. It came with some chewed up rubber grips and I had these on a Model of 1905 4th change and I don't think they really went with that gun either.
Anyway, someday I'll find the right grips and put them on, but in the meanwhile, I'm just going to enjoy it as is.

I like it, has a look to it.

I just qualified for LEOSA w/my old service revolver, a 10-7 snub, and shot a 94%.

Very nice. Those 2" K Frame Model 10s just look right.

 

[JP@AK]

It's a 10-5 . . . Pretty sure these are not the right grips.

Correct. Those are from a K frame in the 1946-1953 period.

Here are a couple pictures of what you would be looking for to be correct on your Model 10-5. Note the rounded bottom. These are called PC Magna stocks and as late as your revolver is there would be no diamond at the screw location.

There were 3 sets of K frame pc magna grips posted in the accessories for sale portion of the classifieds yesterday.

Nice, OP. Congrats.

The Model 10 has a long history along with it's ancestors since ca. 1900. This is a 1947 M&P .

Beware. Model 10s are like French fries and potato chips. U can't have just one. You'll eventually find yourself looking for 3" 4" and 6" models, round butts, and model 64 cousins……… congrats , good looking gun.

Dayum! For a first one, you sure picked the right one!

 

[Mbrgr1]

PM me your address and I will send them to you. (before I change my mind of course!)

That should have the P C Magnas (Plain Clothes). There is an ad in Classifieds that has 2 sets of these offered. K Frame PC Grips FS

Unlike French fries, model 10s are just as good or better when you warm them back up!

I won a 10-5 on G.B. around 5 years ago. Good price. I couldn't believe how well I shot it. Of course, had to change the stocks. It will never be a beauty queen, but I like it! Bob

Looks good to me.
I like those T-grip things

The M10 2" RB was my very first carry piece back in 1979 or 1980. Unfortunately I sold it to buy a Model 60. Not sorry I bought the M60 - just sorry I got rid of it.

I look at them from time to time but for the condition I desire I am not willing to pay what they are asking as I no longer use Revolvers for SD/HD purposes. It would just be another Range gun - got more than enough of them now.

 

[Igiveup]

Bald1 summed up my whold disease with both model 10's and 64's. One leads to another, no stopping.

Might need it and then again might not, a grip adapter for the M-10-5.
