Since the topic is 4" HB's here's mine again. I've got a few Model 10's. I twist their ear pretty good sometimes. They don't seem to mind.

B, I like those grips, did they come with the gun? How do they fit the old fingers?

Ahrends.

They fit my hand pretty well. They have a few different designs.

I almost regret giving mine to my middle son.

Good to know, Bristoe. Maybe I will drop a few of those Outdoorsmans down my 15.

Not a stainless fan but that really looks good with the dark grips.

Very nice!


That really is a nice looking 64 with those dark grips.

That's a handy tool right there. Like that a bunch.

The Model 10 and it's predecessor the M&P is a classic, not reason to reinvent the wheel. 158g SWC works well, no need to push the envelope. Typically on the ones I have and have shot you need to leave a bit more of the half nickle site about the notch to be on target. These things have been running for a very long time. They seldom break or have issues. I have an old Victory model as a truck bug out revolver.

After seeing all the guns posted here I've come to the conclusion that there isn't any such thing as a bad M 10.

I bought an old 4" Model 10 (I believe no dash) a long time ago.

"The Warden" stole it - muttering something about "cold, dead fingers" IIRC smile

She's figured out which end you hold. smile

Rattlesnakes die. (Along with about anything she points it at)

I believe post -2 K frames have heat treated cylinders, which is the same metallergically as the magnum. Bill davis used to do a bunch of re-clambering to .357, but the cylinder is a little shorter so you're limited to 125gr.

So, if someone wanted to load to .357 pressure in a late model K frame, they're good to go.
