It doesn't seem that long ago when Model 10's and 15's were a dime a dozen. They and Model 19's were standard issue for probably thousands of police and sheriff's departments until everybody went to hi-cap wonder nines. For a while no one wanted some stodgy old six shooter, even though they were built like Swiss watches and you can't hardly shoot out a .38.
IIRC even 5-6 years ago a Model 15 would bring $250, maybe $300 if it was in great condition. Then all of a sudden there was a huge explosion in the prices for the older Smiths.
I have my Model 15 so don't need another .38 Spl, but if someone wants a fine, accurate and easy shooting revolver for a really good price those Model 10's at Bud's are priced right.
