Hey folks. I traded into this one about five years ago when thinning the herd. I traded some old black powder stuff that I had no use for anymore. I believe I have no more than $ 250 into this old S&W. It doesn't get shot much as I have a lot of 38 Special's..mostly gathers dust in the safe now. Rich S&W MODEL 10-7 |

Rich, I let one of those current production Model 10 Classics slip away on a trade and I've been regretting it ever since. Would have preferred one of the older ones, but that Model 10 was such a pleasure to shoot. What a timeless classic.

it still to this day suprises me a tad that Smith offered the square butt option on most of their snubs . the square butt snubs are not rare but still not exactly plentiful...........a lot of them got converted to RB somewhere down the line. |

Round but for concealment and faster draw and square for target work has always worked for me, too. S&W, though, has not always adhered to this philosophy. For instance, I still rounds on some monstrous 357 and 44 mag target guns that are anything but concealable and it makes the gun almost impossible to hold in the hand. I suspect they're going more for looks on some of these guns.

They seemed to try to go all round butt for a while using conversion grips where square butts were appropriate. I don't know if they are still doing it. I agree that an N frame with a round butt is a little strange. I have had K, L, and N frames that way. Two came with round butt grips and one with conversion grips. It was the K that had the conversion grips, a 617 with six shot cylinder, full underlug and four inch barrel.
