It is a snub, with square butt and what appears to be (by what you can measure) about a 1 1/4 inch barrel. This seemed very short, but the gun appears factory new. Is this a common length barrel for a Model 10? How do you Smith guys think I did on the money? I'm not familiar with Model 10 prices in this configuration. I bought it on a whim, as I was looking for a nice 4 inch M29 but was unable to find a nice one at the show. Armed Infidel

Revolver barrel lenghts are measured from right in front of the cylinder forward. I sold a used one on gunbroker about six months ago only in round butt configuration, I think I got about $375 in real good condition so 4 and quarter isn't real bad but no great deal in my opinion.

I was satisfied with the price, but didn't know if it was a good price. He had $445 on it and dropped $20. Not sure of it's age, but it has remained in new condition, and that's how I like to buy em. I've never been known for finding bargains. ha But I am known for buying high and selling cheap. If I want it, I'll pay for it, and when I decide to sell, I price to sell. I'm no businessman...... ;o) Armed Infidel
