I'm thinking of selling my 99% Model 60-10, 3" to finance the purchase of something else. I have no idea what this handgun is going for in today's market. Any words of wisdom out there? Thanks, ............ Big Cholla

Recent sales have been in the $700-1000 (!) range. Don't know the reason for the price run-up but it is real.

Cholla, stop, don't sell it. Not much out there nicer than an M60 3". Hang onto everything you own "just in case."
Should be worth at least six, I wouldn't take less for mine, and if NIB with the goodies the $700-$1000 price is possible. Mine was $250 a few years ago. . . .

Model 60-10?
I'm a revolver newbie. I'm picking up a 642 CT on Nov. 1st.
My question: What does the "-10" (dash 10) signify in the model number? I have my eye on a 60-10 pre-lock version.
Thanks!

Breechloader,
Thanks! I couldn't find that info anywhere. Now I know what all the "dashes" mean...

WOW these have shot up!!!!!!!
FWIW don't sell it......IMHO these are the nicest "walk in the woods" guns going........I found a kidex IWB holster for mine and added Spegel extended boot grips....out of the way and very stable.. you can carry it all day walking in the woods or cutting fire wood.....almost forget it's there.
Years ago I picked up a used/new vertical shoulder holster that takes a 3" J frame......great under a heavy coat during Pa.'s Deer season.... gun is dry and protected and only a "half" zipper pull away.
60-10 small, light, no lock, good sights and .357 out of a 3" barrel if you want/need.
