Both are really nice revolvers. I recently picked up a blued round butt 1949 M&P Pre-Model 10. It actually came with pre-war service style grips that look fantastic. The thing that I love about the early guns like this are the half round front sight. That look is so classic on snub nose revolvers, and just makes me think of a police detective gun. I already had a blued and nickel square butt Pre-Model 10, so I was very happy to be able to get a round butt one too! They are all from 1949 and the serial numbers are pretty close together.

If you don't have a Standard Catalog of Smith & Wesson, it's worth the buy. 4th Ed is the current I believe. Has all kinds of cool info and it gives you history and serial number year ranges for each model.

I have a model 15 I bought in 1977. 4" barrel with target hammer and trigger. $140 out the door with 50 rounds of wadcutters. Brand new. Still have it.

Wow, that’s awesome! A 4” model 15 is one I’d love to get my hands on. Too bad you can’t walk into gun stores and buy them new like that anymore.

My first duty-issued handgun in the 1980's was the S&W Model 15 Combat Masterpiece 4" barrel. It was an excellent revolver and was sad to see it go when we tranistioned to semi-autos.

Nice dude! I seen the 15, I juat realized it was your video. KZfaq suggested some of them lol. I love the model 10! Very nice! Only have a 64 snub right now. Love old guns, but old guns with history, and especially family history are awesome!

Good looking S&W’s! I’ve got a 10-5 snub w/original box. Great pistol. I had a 15 to, sold it for a 66-2 snub. Figured if I wanted a full size K frame with adjustable sights I might as well have one that can shoot .357.
@N._American_Heritage6 ай бұрын
You’ve got a point on the .357 but personally I would’ve gone with the model 19 snub. I’m a sucker for blued guns! That said, the 66 is a great choice as well!
@kylewood83276 ай бұрын
@@N._American_Heritage Yes, If that choice had come up first i’d been fine with that too. I’ve seen a few real nice ones for sale (with box) but they’re well over $1200.

You don’t need an adjustable rear sight on snub nose revolvers. They are not target guns. So I choose the Model 10 with the fixed rear sight.

I would love to get a 2" model 15. i have 10 and 12 plus a 19. But a 15 would round out my collection.

Nice! I’m the opposite. I love my model 15 but I’d love to get my hands on a 19 snub

Adjustable rear sight, and square but frame. The only difference in ur 15/10. The service grip on ur 15 appears not original. The coloring/stain should be a lighter oak brown.
@N._American_Heritage7 ай бұрын
That along with the wider hammer, grip serrations, and barrel. That’s interesting that you say that. You think the original grips would be lighter than the ones currently on the revolver? Because they look pretty light already haha

@@N._American_Heritage Mine is. And manufacturing was around the same as ur's. Do u know the lighter grip service grips. Maybe they are for police issue. That's where I see the lighter color most. Mine was bought new by my papi. Then again. Who knows. tnx.

@@N._American_Heritagethe barrel is correct, 15 had a bull barrel. You can take the stocks off the 15 and see if the serial number is stamped on them.
