I have/had a 3" HB Model 10.
Uncommon gun, but as received, with a little freckling rust, and Century Arms markings on it, it would never have collector value.
So I had it cut to a round butt, put Spiegel cocobolo grippies on it, and bead blasted it with a coarse blasting medium, then Parkerized it. Roundbutting it meant the first digit of the serial went away, and had to be restamped, so an ATF guidance letter was also obtained in an abundance of caution.
It's on probably permanent loan to my little sister.
Anyway, I thought the final product was a near perfect example of fine K frame goodness. Mr Slowhand made me a fast holster for it, and the overall arrangement was just great.
Also had a 5" skinny Model 10. We never really bonded.
