Model 10 Project

[Lon]

I’ve talked about this before, but I finally have all the parts in one place. I like the 2” Model 15. But I don’t want to ruin a collectible one for what I have in mind and haven’t found a beat up one for a decent price. So here’s what I’ve got - and old SB to RB converted (and it’s a BAD conversion) 2” model 10. Which I just brought back from my dads. A 2” 15 barrel and a C&S Extreme Duty rear sight. I’m planning on having the front sight milled off the M15 barrel and having a dovetail cut for a white dot M&P front sight. Then once I get the correct sight height figured out for my carry ammo, I’ll have a custom height sight made by Dawson. Right now I’ve got @$400 invested.

I take it that the hammer was bobbed and the SA notch is still there?

Nope. It came with a second non modified hammer when I bought it.

Sounds like I’m gonna sell it to you. I don’t have a good time frame so I hope you aren’t in a hurry.

I don’t hurry any more, I’m retired.

I’ll send you a pm if you don’t send me one first.

You bastidg! Now you got me thinking things about my own Model 10, and how cheap 2" 15 barrels are on Numrich.

Should be a fun project! Keep us posted.

Lon, who do you plan to use to do the work? I used to have a couple go-to guys in the Dayton area, but they've died or quit.

I hate to cough up the $$$ for overnight shipping to far-flung pistolsmiths.

Very cool.

I found i had to widen that rear sight with my 2.75" barrel.
