My pre-Model 10 6"
I got this in the spring. It appears to be an unused police gun, as it has an arsenal stamping on the butt. Came as a package with the box and paperwork and cleaning tools.

I really like the appearance of the "Pre-Model" K-Frame .38 S&Ws. I guess its because they invoke images of a historic and more ordered past.
About 1954 I think.
About 1950
About 1919.

That's an interesting illustration of the variations in checkering patterns of post-war magnas. Beautiful guns there.

Just back home from Africa I bought it new in '49 for $71.50. My Dad sent me several pistol grips and I had them copied in ivory at about $6 a pair. I did the decor.

I think rhmc24 takes the cake for having owned his the longest.
I find it interesting how the hammer and front sight styles overlap. Some guns are round sight/Speed Hammer, some are ramped/Speed Hammer, some are round/modern hammer.
I have a couple but nothing that hasn't been seen before. I guess the true "pre10" would be an M&P from 1946 to 1957 so these will fit:

Here's mine that I picked up a few days ago. I'm told it dates to 1929. It came with a Pachmayr rubber grip on it, but thanks to a board member it now has a correct set of stocks on it

My favorite shooter, it's been reblued and the larger grips fill the hand, all in all, a great range gun.

I always thought a Pre Model 10 started with a C prefix. I always like showing this one
Was rereading this thread this afternoon, and it is a great collection
of M&P's. Here is one last contribution - its a set of .32 M&P's from
1949 - 1950.

I'd swoon over a 4-inch or 5-inc M&P .32 but that 2-inch just flips me out!
Bruce
You'd do a double flip if you knew the price I had to pay for it !

M&P
For a S and W model 1905 (M&P) with serial 491373 and a 2 inch barrel chambered in 38 spl: When would this firearm have been manufactured and what change is it? Also how common are 2 inch barrels? It has square butt walnut grips (hand checkered).
Pictures to come...
Thanks!

The 32s are Great. I will bet that it would be hard to put that set together again.
As far as the 2" Pre-War M&Ps are concerned, Roy told me that S&W did not catalog them until 1935. S&W sure miss the boat with there 2" 6 shot .38s. Colt took control of that market in the 20s with their Detective Special.
