    A few years ago, I would have thought it’d be cheaper to buy a 3” M65 and just paint the sights, but that’s probably not true anymore.

    That's the $64,000 question. North of an AMU?

    FFL to FFL can go by priority mail, which doesn't sound too bad.

    That's a little baffling. Maybe it was a matter of the work being done almost on a semi-production line basis?

    Looking thru my Standard Catalog it appears that the 3" model 10 wasn't made in large numbers. 84-87 seems to be the only period except for special order to PD's and foreign govt's. Most model 10's were 2" or 4". The new ones appear to be 4". The designers kind of picked a unicorn for a base model.

    They did get several things right however. The K frame is perfect, no adj sight RB model and the hammer seems to be a good compromise between no spur and a usable spur for single action. I like the concept. I don't have a model 10 but I'm always looking at those thinking I should have at least one.

    There defiantly is a resurgence in the popularity of revolvers.

    My first sleep away class was at Thunder Ranch in Tx in 2004. Revolver. We wanted to train with Clint before he went out west and that was the class that worked for everybody's schedule.

    Clint, Heidi and the Furr brothers IIRC.

    Nothing like being in the charger deck with speedloaders bouncing like handballs off the "ground" two and three at a time.

    Model 19 Police turn In. 300ish shipped. Local smith "smoothed out/contoured" the target trigger. 50.00 max I suspect filed/buffed off any obvious burrs since he had it apart already as the trigger action came back to me a fair bit slicker as well.


    Milt Sparks got me a holster in about 7 weeks when the order window was 9-11 so I would have "two weeks to get used to it before you go and see Clint."
    Then at least, you knew the holster was en route because they did not charge the card until the order was about to ship.

    O3,

    That is a more perfect defensive K-frame to my thinking. The fixed rear and taller front are much more visible, which for me is of paramount import.
