The Smith & Wesson Model 10 is a classic police revolver used by police and military on most continents from the early
1900's until this day. It uses the K-frame size, like the Smith & Wesson Model 15 and Model 19. Earlier versions, including the forerunner model of 1899 up until 1960, had thin barrels and a rounded front sight. Early versions were chambered in .38 Long Colt/.38 Special and occasionally .32-20 WCF. WWII models were also chambered in .38 Smith & Wesson for the British Commonwealth. From 1960 until today it was fitted with a heavier barrel and ramped front sight. Barrels came in 2, 3, 4, and 6-inch versions. Formerly known as the "Military and Police" (M&P), the Smith & Wesson Model 10 is the most successful police revolver in history can be seen in countless movies.
