Found a gem today I think, a S&W Model 10-2 marked N.P.D. and 423T. Anybody know what these stand for? I presume to think it's the police rack number or something but it's a solid piece, smooth, and fits perfectly in the hand. I've always wanted a model 10 to plink with and teach my kids on, fate found me today!
I've seen NPD attributed to Newark Police Dept. on a quick google search
There's nothing civil about this war.
Newport or Narragansett if it's from RI.
4" barrel?
I really like how standard 4" barrels handle.

The path of least resistance will seldom get you where you need to be.
Yessir 4" barrel, it handles so nice!! He had a model 10-2 and model 10-14, somebody traded in an old collection. I'm in love with it, I know its a plain common pistol but my first.Originally Posted by 03RN
A Model 10 is one of the two handguns that any self-respecting American should know how to shoot, if not own.
If we have to march off into the next world, let us walk there on the bodies of our enemies.
A Model 10 and a Glock 19, right?
I was into 10mm Auto before it sold out and went mainstream, but these days I'm here for the revolver and epidemiology information.
Not even hardly. Look to your avatar.A Model 10 and a Glock 19, right?

Taking a guess, 423T is shield number and first initial last name.
Thanks for the info and tidbits all, I've ran a few cylinders of standard FMJ though it and it hits right to POI. I carried it around the yard Saturday in an OWB leather holster and it packs very nicely, smooth D/A pull and and a light crisp S/A. Love it!
