Please do not part with this gun. You will regret it in the future.. I speak from experience. It is an heirloom (Really) and if you let it go, someday, you will be kicking yourself. If you need money. contact me and we can work a deal where I buy it and you can have an option to buy it back later.

Picked this up 2 weeks ago. 10-8 4" nickel LNIB. I wasn't able to get it photographed properly but I thought I would add to the pile anyway..It's condition is 99%+condition Not a scratch or smudge anywhere.

Just recently posted these pics but they belong in this thread my newly acquired 10-6 hb with altamont grips.

Why is it so darned hard to find a 2", post war, round butt, pre model 10? Are you guys hoarding them, or do they not exist?

Model 10

10-8 Nickel pinned heavy 4" barrel.

I picked up a "police trade" model 10, to use as a "shooter". I already had a Model 19-3, blued, but wanted a range beater-type revolver in .38 special.

Is the nickel finish that appears to be satin-nickel, the same as those that have been polished? Mine looks like matte finish, in good shape, but those shiney nickel are curious to me as I don't know if they are just ones that have been polished, or, a different finish altogether.

Got this last week. NIB, unfired D20XXX 5"

Here's another "Pre" Model 10, a Military and Police .38 shipped April 1949. Extremely smooth action, and still locks up like new. Probably carried much and shot little, typical investigators undercover gun:



This is a classic thread. The M&P, later the Model 10 was Smith and Wessons "Bread and butter gun" for about a hundred years!!

Keep them coming...

Best Regards, Les

10-5 and Post War M&P. This is a Great Forum.

This 5-inch no-dash Model 10 came into my possession almost a year ago. There are some issues with the finish, the stocks aren't correct, and I probably paid too much for it (or perhaps I just bought it too soon), but it has quickly become one of my favorite handguns. This one carries serial number C 477768, and letters as having shipped to the Stratton-Warren Hardware Co. (a wholesale hardware dealer) in Jackson, MS, on December 29, 1959.

Just my pinned ones.

My latest 10. Really like this 1. Was carried, and not babied. Had not been fired much. I added the stocks, and B.K.'s. Fun little gun! Bob

That is a nice snub nose M10. I have decent luck with 4" but never find 2" or 3" K frames.

Won it on G.B. in March for $320. Stocks were ROUGH! I looked on + off for a 2" K frame for approx. 2 years. Really wanted a snub 15. It did not happen. Bob

Just loved the look of the older Model-10's so much I just had to find a nice one to own.Plus I watched that video from Hickok-45 and that helped a little to.Here's mine and it shoots great especially in single action target shooting.Very accurate!
