I picked up this Smith model 10-7 last week. I just happened to open the paper that morning and saw it listed for $185 in the classfieds.
It's in perfect time and the cylinder has no end shake and very little rotational play. :up:
The next step is to put some service grips on it and a Tyler T.

The Model 10, in my opinion, is what made Smith & Wesson. I love them all! Very nice piece and a good price. :up:

Holster wear on the muzzel & front of the triggerguard... the owner had been a shipyard guard at the Higgins Boat Yard in Lousiana where they made WWII Landing Craft. Never shot till I got hold of it. Paid $50 (private transaction) the year before Kali paperwork complicated things & drove the prices way up:P Point of aim is 50' with the issue sights. Tyler grip adapters are a Good idea - I have big hands:D
I have small hands and the Tyler T's improve shootability on everything I've tried them on. Mr T

My model 10 is one of my favorite guns. That it was a Detroit Police revolver makes it even more interesting.
Great deal on a wonderful gun. :up:

I love it and have limited exp with it.
My cousin bought his,a pair of hand cuffs and a holster for 58.00 in 1962.
His was/is a heavy barrel mod 10 and was instrumental in my choich of the mod 13 I eventually got.
Fine pistols.
You got a good bargain.

O'Fallon is right. S&W's model 10 and Colt's D-frame are/were the backbone of the entire industry.

Great deal! Looking forward to seeing it with new grips, while I don't like the Tyler T grip adaptor Visually, I do like the way they make certain revolvers, Colt Cobra, S&W M10, etc. fit in my hand! HAVE FUN!
