    My dad had a 10-5 when he came from Vietnam and got a job as a Correctional Officer in the early 70's. As of 2 years ago, after his passing, I inherited it. Only took to the range once with it and I have zero plans of selling it ever.

    It's always good to see a Smith & Wesson revolver in your videos, Shep! I always look forward to your videos and I get big grin when I see a video by you in my RUclips subscriptions list.
    I have a Model 10-6 with the heavy barrel and square butt frame. It came with Magna grips. It seems to be a low round count revolver that hasn't seen much use. I also have a Model 64-1 with heavy barrel and square butt frame. It has a Hogue combat mono grip.

    • @1957Shep
      @1957Shep  4 года назад +2

      Don`t recall ever seeing one with the old tapered barrel with a round butt. But that doesn`t mean anything. Over the years they made the model 10 in about every configuration possible. A couple years ago I saw one marked as a model 10, but chambered for 32 H&R Mag instead of 38 special. It had police markings. So my best guess was that some police dept. special ordered a batch of them in that caliber.

    I love mine, its nickel plated 4"bbl. Slim barrel like yours. I've seen some said you can shoot +P ammo and others say no. I know it was made(mine) prior to +P ammo. Their reasoning why you could was that ammo back in the day had higher loads than todays factory loads of most companys. Not buffalo bore or ones like that of course. I tried some through it, no problems. But wonder if I should nix that idea. Any thoughts on that?

    • @1957Shep
      @1957Shep  Год назад

      I have heard it both ways. Some say any of them made after 57 is ok for +P and some say any made after the mid 80s is ok for +P. I never really worried about it because I never use 38 +P ammo at all in any gun. I have a lot of guns chambered for 38 Special and a lot of guns chambered for 357 Magnum. If I want more power than a 38, I just use one of the 357s.

      In a S&W forum are some discussions about that. The point is that early .38 special were loaded very hot but werent called +p. Someone posted an old S&W advertisement from 1930 where they praised the .38 special as powerful caliber that get 960fps with a 158gr bullet. So that is what we call today +p. But what maybe can cause problems are these hot loads with 125 or even 110gr bullets. There is much more pressure and hot gases and I dont think they had those loads in the old days.

    • @1957Shep
      @1957Shep  11 месяцев назад

      Not much to cleaning a revolver like this one. Open the cylinder. Swab out the chambers and the barrel. Clean any powder residue that you can see. Put a couple drops of oil into the frame at the trigger and hammer. Wipe down the gun with an oily rag so that you leave a very light film of oil to protect the finish from rust during storage.
      Every 2 or 3 years you might want to remove the grips just to make sure that no rust is forming under them.
      You really should not disassemble one of these on a regular basis unless there is something wrong with it and it needs worked on.
      The #1 way that revolvers get damaged (especially the springs) is by people taking them apart and putting them back together without really knowing how and/or not having the proper tools to do it.
