My old 1076 with night sights:

I need to replace my night sights on my 1076. Do you ever carry the gun, I have a few times and like it better then a 1911 for comfort, ease of carry and no damn safety to fool with either. For some reason I have been thinking about the safety lately and and got to thinking that in reality the '76 is as safe or maybe safer then a 1911 due to a hammer always being cocked on a 1911, also that hammer catching on clothing, or drawing the gun for defence and forgetting the safety in the heat of the moment. The 1076 is more like a revolver, but with a better double action then 99% of the revolvers you could carry.Originally posted by Erich:

Something I have been wondering is how these guns would hold up to 1100 to 1200 fps 180g rounds or 1300 to 1350 155 JHPST with any regularity. I was popping 165g TC with 10.1 of BlueDot at the range yesterday, they were good handfull even with my 610-3 6.5" that is 49.4 Oz empty. Glad I was not shooting the 1076 since it about 16 to 20 oz lighter.

On his request, I recently sold the 1076 back to the fellow who'd sold it to me. Before that I would carry it appendix IWB on hikes and occasionally around town.
I used to shoot 180-grain bullets at 1300 fps from the 4.25" tube all the time.
I had Wolff extra-power recoil and firing pin springs on board.

When I replace the sights I had planned on replacing the firing pin spring also with a spring from Wolff.
The '76 sure does fit well IWB and does it better then my 1911A2 Compact did for sure.

Here are my two Smith 10s, a 1066 and a 1006. Wouldn't mind adding a 610 and a 1086 to the bunch if money was available.

Had my 1076 and it was a great pistol. But having small hands made it impossible to decock it with out shifting my hand, and the DA reach was waaaay to long for me. I would definitely grab a 1086 for the right price. Thanks for all the excellent pics guys.

I doubt that you could buy a nice 1086 for under $800 now days. And at that price I would raather have the 1086 then a new Sig, Glock, H&K or even a M&P for that matter. The 1086 has about the sweetest DAO trigger of them all, and IMHO even better the the Kimber LDA that feels gritty and yet is so light as to be dangerous. The 1086 is a moderate length, but smooth as butter, pull that really works well and allows for good shooting. It is one fine IWB gun and would be my first choice of any new gun on the market at present.
All that said I sometimes think I should not have bought the gun, because I very seldom dress where I could CC the gun and it has become a safe queen. I also need to get new night sights as origial are dead and I just don't carry because of those two reasons. Selling that gun would leave me thinking the rest of my days "Why did I ever sell my 1086 for???" like I have been with the Colt King Cobra 6" I bought new for $300 or $400 and was a beautiful shooting gun. But I just could not resist the idea of selling it for more then I paid for it less then a year after I bought the gun.

Nice collection of 10-- series guns fellas!!! Let's keep 'em coming!!!
This afternoon I found a consignment 1076 at my local candy store. It is a new in the box unfired 1076 SN TFE586x for $690
It has the matching original box with serial numbers with oil paper, 2nd mag and original cleaning kit.
Is this a great price, a good price or an OK price just if I really like it?

Still cannot believe Smith & Wesson stopped building the 3rd generation pistols.
Big mistake in my opinion.

Here is most of the 10mm family, missing another 610, 6.5". And another 1076.
Only difference is that the grip screws are now stainless. Hogue sent me the ones from the wood grips since the finish rubbed off the black ones and they began to rust.
I have an extended slide stop on the way from bad_man_ one. I will also be getting a .40 and .357 SIG barrel when they are available. I do plan on having it bead blasted, removing the warning on the right side of the gun. Probably will have Novak do it, but I'm unsure if I will get any other of their packages (was interested in the duty action trigger job and reliability package). Hopefully I can sell the Trijicon SA01s and pick up SA02s for it.
