Wonderful post! I really enjoy the DIY stuff on sixguns. I LOVE the Model 10s!!! I have two of them and am working on a third. My 10-5 (2-inch) and 10-6 (4-inch HB) are wonderful shooters. The 10-5 went to Amerigun in Michigan for a custom front sight. The 10-6 is at S&W getting a facelift ($265 for a polish blue and cylinder chamfer). Whence she comes back, she will have a front sight like my Model 13-1 that went to Amerigun.
I polish the rebound slide's surfaces (sides only) and de-burr the corresponding inside part of the frame for my action jobs. I re-use the same factory springs. The part I have done is sending the triggers off to Mag-Na-Port for their Combat Trigger modification (radiusing the trigger's sides). That's usually enough for a 8-10 lbs SMOOOOTH pull.
I really like the 3-inch slab side barrel and utilitarian matte blue. The front sight (and muzzle chamfer) are good common-sense modifications too!
Thanks so much for sharing!
