Renamed the model 10 when smith & wesson adopted numerical model designations in 1957, the fixed-sight k-frame was widely issued to law-enforcement agencies, security personnel, and military organizations. The 10-6 engineering variation was introduced for the heavy-barrel configuration which also eliminated the trigger guard screw, combining the m&p's established double-action mechanism with improved forward weight and a serrated ramp front sight. Smith & wesson estimated that by 1960, approximately 85% of the world's law-enforcement officers carried a . 38 m&p revolver. this 1974 model 10-6 is configured with the desirable 4" pinned heavy barrel, fixed service sights, walnut magna stocks, and traditional blued finish with a case-colored hammer and trigger. It retains about 65% of its original finish, displaying substantial but honest service wear, scattered marks, localized oxidation, and fine pitting, while retaining clear markings, a bright 8/10 bore, and smooth, correctly functioning single- and double-action operation. Its condition suggests genuine working use rather than neglect, making it an appealing representative example of smith & wesson's classic heavy-barrel service revolver.
