I have 6” target masterpiece and this just looks like a very nice addition to that gun.
He is claiming really good accuracy we shall see.

The owner said a medium velocity 158gr swc is absolutely magical in this gun.
He is saying it out shoots his 686 all day.

At the casting bench in the sky. RIP Bret.
Me likey Smiffs!!!!!!! Not a thing wrong with that. I'd be looking for a Tyler T Grip adapter, just because they make those grips fit me better, but that's just fine. Hard to go wrong with a good shooting 158-ish gr SWC.

S&W 10-5: Blued steel, fixed sights, tapered barrel (AKA pencil barrel), most 4" barreled models had square butt grip frame (although some round butt models were made), pinned barrel. Everything you need and nothing you don’t. Easy to carry, one of the best DA actions every made. The 10-5 series was made from 1962 to 1977

The Model 10 chambered in 38 Special and fitted with a 4” barrel may the most universal handgun ever made. Accurate, reliable, durable. Small enough to be easily carried in a holster, large enough to be easy to shoot. Can be pressed into service for target work, small game, or self-defense. Extremely safe action. Made in huge numbers so parts are available if needed. Holsters, speedloaders and grips are readily available.

Just an amazing American handgun.

I've got the same model. It is my "fun gun". Accurate, comfortable to shoot, nothing extra to mess with. I can shoot it all day w/o suffering from "shooter fatigue". A couple hundred rounds of .357 in my GP100 and my nerves are frayed.

A great gun.
