Smith & Wesson Model 10

About the Smith & Wesson Model 10

The Smith & Wesson Model 10 is a medium revolver built on Smith & Wesson's K-frame, introduced in 1899. Chambered in .38 Special with a 6-round cylinder. Built with a carbon steel frame, this revolver continues Smith & Wesson's tradition of robust, reliable revolver construction. The 4.0-inch barrel provides an excellent balance of sight radius and portability, suitable for both duty carry and range work. The double-action/single-action trigger system allows both deliberate double-action shots and precise single-action fire when the hammer is manually cocked, providing versatility across different shooting scenarios. Weighing 964g (34.0 oz) empty, this revolver provides a solid, confidence-inspiring heft that helps absorb recoil without being overly burdensome for extended carry. Smith & Wesson has been producing K-frame revolvers for well over a century, continuously refining the platform with improved metallurgy, ergonomics, and manufacturing techniques while maintaining the fundamental reliability and accuracy that has made their double-action revolvers the benchmark against which all others are measured.

The Model 10 served as the standard sidearm for countless law enforcement agencies and military forces. Its simple, reliable design made it one of the most successful firearms ever produced.
