S+W 10mm avalibility?

[LDAVE.45]

Hi Guys!
I just got tacit approval from my wife to purchase a S+W semi auto

. I'm hoping to find one in 10mm. It took me looking for almost 5 to find a S+W mod 610 revolver "I'm hoping that it will not take as long to find a semi"
My question is how common are they and if it's worth the hunt?

Here's another forum to look at http://www.10mmtalk.com/ . There are still quite a few 10MM for sale. I think you can still buy a Kimber 1911 in a 10MM as well, probably others.

All kinds of used 1006's and 1066's also new run 610's on http://www.gunbroker.com/. They are still out there, prices are as high as when they came out of the factory the first time.

Dan Wesson, Glock, and Kimber all make current production 10mm autos. Still plenty of 1006s for sale. I got two. Got the first NIB in 1999 and the second one NIB in 2008. Prices on the original S&W 3rd Generation Autos and 610s are steep these days.

Let us not forget the EAA Witness 10 m.m. in plastic or aluminum frames.

For those with some deep pockets, Wilson makes a really sweet 10mm custom auto for $3000.

A dealer near me in Northern VA has a mint 1076 with the box for around $650 or so.

Don't forget the COLT DELTA

For some reason in the 10mm I prefer the frame moounted decockers, got a 1076 and a 1026. Love em. Also got 2 610s, 3&4", also great guns. You will like the 10mm semis, they are almost bear protection IMHO.

Yes, I've seen it - at Virginia Arms. Mint is something of an understatement...perfect is more like it.

If I was not so hung-up on DAO's, I'd have snatched it up in a heartbeat. It is a steal at $650.00...
