The S&W Model 10

These are just my opinion and no one need agree with me.

However, apparently quite a few do at least in part. For instance, S&W has produced more than 6,ooo,ooo Model 10's making it one of the most produced handguns in the world.

My Pick For Two Of The Best Handguns Ever

Can't find an issue with your choices although I've never owned a 'real Colt'. The HB model 10 I used to have was the first revolver, and the third gun, I ever bought with my own money. I ended up giving it to my oldest son for a birthday gift one year. There are many other Smiths here spanning several generations but I still kind of miss that one. Production of 6 million...wow!

Edit: That is one pretty Colt by the way. I love the sheep's horn.

I gave to my daughter when I moved to Mozambique.

OT: We went to the post office yesterday and ended up chatting with a woman in front of us who did(?), had friends who did(?) missionary work in "east Africa". She knew where Pemba was and corrected me when I said Mozambique. No more details as it was a short chat. Made me think of you and Twyla though.
