I was looking at S&W model 10's with a 6" barrel yesterday. Used to turn my nose up at model 10's until I bought one.
I found a 10-8 with a 4" heavy barrel with a roundbut grip like new for...
I have a S&W 10-8 RB with a 4" HB that I carry for duty and a S&W 15 that I carry working on the farm. I never could understand why someone would buy a k frame 38 when you could buy one in 357,...
Check out Single-Actions forum member tdbarton for replacement ejector rods. He does nice work at a reasonable price. A worthy addition to your single action.
I loaded a very similar cast hp bullet in 45acp. I tested it with a Springfield 5" 1911a1. Impact velocity in the 850-900 fps area. It destroyed the 1st water jug punched a leak in the 2nd jug but...
I bought a model S&W 10-8 a couple of years ago because I had never had one. I have several 357 revolvers. I find I carry the model 10 or a model 15 mainly with plus p handloads. I killed 3 hogs...

I bought a SS Springfield 1911-A1 45acp. It has basic 3 dot sights, gi style guide rod and standard grip safety. I have been looking at changing out the sights, safety, trigger and a few upgrades. ...
I had always looked at the Model 10 as a second rate revolver with its fixed sights and lowly 38 special cartridge. I bought a 10-8 heavy barrel 4" last year, it was like new. I started shooting it...

Smith Enterprise, I saw one on Brownell's site.
I never could understand the way some folks doted on model 10's. Late last year I decided to try one for myself. I found a like new 10-8, round-but 4" heavy barrel. I was concerned about the anemic...

I shot the MP Hammer hp today with a plus p charge of Longshot powder. The same charge weight Hodgdon shows velocity of 965 fps for a Hornady 158 XTP. They list barrel length at 7.7", I used a 4"...
I traded for a model 15 today, very happy with the trade. On the lookout for a nice model 14.
I recently put a model 10 with a 4" heavy barrel with a round but in layaway, never was interested in a fixed sight revolver until the last year are so. I love to shoot a S&W revolver double action. ...
That model S&W is what I am looking for. Yesterday I walked in a shop and they had put out a S&W 10-5 with a 4" heavy barrel with a round but. The revolver was immaculate, blue finish in excellent...
