Product Information & Specs

Seller Description For This Firearm

REVOLVER: SMITH & WESSON MODEL PRE MODEL 10, SERIAL NUMBER 73698, BLUE, YES - INCLUDES ORIGINAL BOX AND PAPERS, DOUBLE ACTION, 38 SPECIAL, 2

Notes:
The Smith & Wesson Model 10 is one of the most iconic revolvers ever produced—an absolute cornerstone of American law enforcement history and, honestly, one of the most recognizable wheelguns to ever ride in a detective’s shoulder holster. Originally developed from the Military & Police line introduced in 1899, the Model 10 went on to serve police officers, security personnel, military forces, and plainclothes detectives for generations. If you’ve ever watched an old crime drama, noir film, or gritty ‘70s cop movie, chances are you’ve seen a Model 10 somewhere on screen. Chambered in .38 Special and built on Smith & Wesson’s legendary K-frame, these revolvers earned their reputation through simplicity, reliability, and buttery-smooth double-action triggers that modern revolvers still chase today. This thing isn’t just a revolver—it’s pure Americana in blued steel.

This particular example is the desirable 2-inch barrel round-butt configuration, giving it that unmistakable detective revolver profile that collectors and enthusiasts love. The deep blued finish pairs beautifully with the classic lines of the K-frame, and the shorter barrel keeps the revolver compact without sacrificing the handling qualities that made the Model 10 famous. The double-action/single-action trigger system remains one of the standout features of these older Smiths, delivering the smooth pull and crisp lockup that helped make them trusted duty guns for decades. What really elevates this listing, though, is the included original packaging and accessories: the old-school blue two-piece cardboard Smith & Wesson box, original wax paper, liability card, and two M3 speed loaders. That kind of complete vintage package is getting harder and harder to find, especially with the accessories still intact. This listing includes the Smith & Wesson Model 10 revolver, original factory box and paperwork, wax paper, and two M3 speed loaders.

Shopping at Guns.com gives you the backing of a company that is committed to your satisfaction.  And unlike our competitors, it extends beyond the buying process.  We get the FFL from your store – others make you find it, copy it, and fax it.  We have a generous return policy, and handle everything – you don’t have to go back to the store.  And our Rangemasters are here to answer all your questions about our products or process.  We're bringing a level of service to the online gun buying experience that is unheard of.


WE SUPPORT LOCAL GUN STORES
WE SUPPORT LOCAL GUN STORES

Many online gun sales actually take away from your local community.  Instead of buying a gun that’s on your local store’s shelf, most retailers drop ship it from a warehouse in another state.  At Guns.com, if an FFL is part of our network, we sell THEIR guns first whenever possible.  That way, we’re helping small businesses in your community AND if they have it in stock, you can pick your gun up IMMEDIATELY – it’s how business should be done.


WE KEEP IT SIMPLE
WE KEEP IT SIMPLE

Most everything can be easily bought online these days.  But for some reason, buying a gun online can be complicated.  Most websites are poorly organized, don’t tell you a lot about what you’re buying, and leave you on your own to figure out what you want.  Guns.com is built to be simple – easily organized products, useful descriptions from experts, and support to guide you to the right choice.  Spend your time enjoying the gun you want, not getting frustrated with a complex website that makes gun buying hard.
