I ordered one of the "Ugly Smith" Model 10s that people were talking about off of Bud's the other day. I figured a 4" .38 would be fun to plink with, and at $269, it might make a fun project gun.
I've seen some pics coming back in from people who have bought these, and ho lee crap, they are definitely ugly. I don't have mine yet, but it's looking like it might take more cleaning than I had expected when it gets here.
I'm not a revolver guy at all and much more of a rifle shooter. What would I need to clean up on this gun to make sure it functions A-OK? With a rifle, I'd pry just swab out the bore, oil the bolt and raceways and call it good, but revolvers can get a little intricate.
Thanks.
