The Ultimate Model 10 Thread!

[parisofthewest]

Great looking Model 10s guys!

Here is my $275 5" 10-5. I shoot it about the best out of any of my handguns. She wears a Pachmayr adapter now and fits the hand and balances like a dream.

How about a rust bucket rescue... I don't have original pics and I didn't GunKote her, but I'm told she looked pretty pitted rough before. The GK gives her a bit of a parkerized look and I love it. Didn't get to the range to test her this weekend. Maybe the next one.

My favorite pre M-10 is my old, beat up KPD stamped, early C-prefix gun (1947-48)with a 2 inch barrel. Can't post pics right now, but she definitely has character!

stantheman86. I HATE YOU!
But I love your 6" RB.
I shoot my 4" RB more than any of the 'K' frames. It "Just Feels Right".

While we're on the subject of nickled 10s, I'll add this one that I picked up yesterday.
And its a C&R to boot!

This 10-5 hopefully will be enroute to my dealer this week. Someone had it Parkerized. Dates to 72'-73'. Already have a t-grip on order for it. I'll get some real pics up after I get it.

I've posted the 4" 10-5 in this thread already - new addition tho.
Recently aquired M10-5 2", shipped around 1976.

Well I guess I'm just late to the game! I thought I had already joined the party, but no, so here goes!


1st Model of 1899 - Approximately 1901

Pre Model 10 4" nickel #S8735xx - Approximately 1947

Pre Model 10 4" round butt - #C1755xx - Gotta get this one lettered. I believe
its early 50's. Hoping for a birthday gun on this one. Its also my favorite!

These are by no means my first S&W's but I have to admit that nickel pre-model 10 is the one that started my current affliction with Smiths! And, fortunately, I'm permanently afflicted!

Looked at this thread again and thought I'd add another pic. Two model 10 no dashes from the same year.

Here's a pair of -5s that came to me within the same week a couple years ago:

You Sir, have a good eye!

It's funny how these things find you and not the other way around! I'd sure like to find an original box for it. THAT hasn't found me yet!

I have a 10-5 6" in S&W bright blue. Like new. It has gold inlay in the markings. Wish I knew how to post a picture. Would like to know why these guns are priced so much lower than a lot of the other models? This gun is really nice and I will try to post a pic.
