Detroit PD bling

Lovely revolver and one I’d be honored to own too! Great deal, too - around me, that gun would be $800.

Thanks!
The shop that sold it kinda focuses on ARs and tacticool stuff, and it had apparently been there for a good bit, so they were motivated sellers, lol.
They do have nicely cerakoted Savage 340 that's kinda tempting for $300. I just don't know if I want to get back into .30-30 again. It doesn't exactly grow on trees anymore.

Picked up this clean 10-5 today when I realized I didn't have a single nickel wheel gun in the stable.

Think I did ok at $430 OTD for some vintage Detroit Bling.

Nice reflection in the frame of that wheel gun.

One of my kid's targets hanging on the wall. Lol.

As a native Detroiter, I'd have bought that revolver in a heartbeat. 430 bucks? Nice.

The five inch barrels are awesome. Great balance, great looks, great shooters.

My nickel Model 10:

Couldn't get a good shot of it, but "Detroit Police" and a property number is nicely stamped on the backstrap, so much cleaner than the terrible electro-pencil so often used.

She's got just a hint of holster wear, but I suspect this one spent most of its time on the job in a desk drawer-

Never been a fan of the 4" M10s, but the 5" is just perfectly proportional, IMO.

Mine mighta been carried by a lefty, as the RH grip is a lttle beat, but the LH is pretty much as new.

Just how mine was too.
