Zeke, Hello and welcome to the forum. I hope we can feed to your new found revolver addiction.
The model 10 is one of the best S&W revolvers ever made. I guess that is why they have made it for so long. I like the look of the heavy bull barrel. I can tell you that you will have one problem with the gun. The model 10 seems to eat lots of ammunition. They are very hungry revolvers. I do not know if it is the revolver eating too much or the owner feeding it too much. If you have not caught on yet, you will be shooting it a-lot so Invest in a reloading machine...I personally think you did pretty good on the price. The model 10 seems to be going up in price around NC. Great looking revolver and welcome to the forum.
