I picked up a 2" S&W Model 10 one time...
My best friend owned a gunshop and pawn shop. A couple brought in this 2" S&W model 10 38 special that was in pretty decent shape. They said that they had had a fire in their house and the gun was "damaged" and they wanted it destroyed. Well, the gun showed no sign of exposure to heat, the grips still had the undamaged factory varnish on them, and the gun didn't even show any rust, just a slight bit of soot. Springs were fine, and overall the gun rated about a 95% condition showing only a slight bit of finish wear from being used. My friend explained to them that the gun was perfectly safe and was fine, but they refused to believe him and insisted that the gun was damaged and unsafe, so he took it and promised to have it destroyed...... I'm still working on "destroying" it one round at a time
