No - a Model 10 is much too new. I do consider my S & W M & P (pre-cursor to the Model 10) to be more than adequate - mine was born the same year I was so that's probably why I trust it so much. LOL
They are a great revolver - great shooters and have been depended on for years. To illustrate how much I think of my M & P - I once owned a beautiful 4" Colt Python - got it at a great price and wanted to have the "Python Experience". Everyone likes different things and I know that some worship the Python - I just didn't care for it. If I was going to carry on the farm for critters, etc. - I always picked up my M & P every time - it just felt better to me. I ended up selling the Python to someone who really enjoys it. My old Smith may be old like I am, have some good old honest wear from the holster and not be "the latest thing" - but she's a great shooter. If I were to run across a nice Model 10 at a decent price, I'd snap it up in a heartbeat.
A K frame is a great revolver and IMHO, the 38 special is a great all around cartridge that's fun to reload, fun to shoot and it will get the job done - I dispatched many critters on the farm with it over the years.
