S&W Model 10 .38 Special
What a classic! This mid-size S&W frame and caliber has been around well over a hundred years. It’s still a great caliber and firearm.

This gun is super accurate. Great for small game handgun hunters. Love this gun. I remember seeing a colt police positive at gander mountain than that’s when I knew that when I was old enough my gun of choice would be a 38 caliber revolver. Using full metal jackets because those work too says the army and other military branches.
I bet all the crooks who have been killed by the .38 don’t think it is weak or not deadly
I would like to buy one.
You know what they say, a .38 can really motivate.
Learn to use the speed-loader effectvelly and not lose your nerve under fire !! Practice those groupings, hit those targets !! 👍🏼
People laugh at the .38, but it’ll still put a man down…
what’s the barrel length?
I have this gun it’s so simple nothing fancy that’s why I like it so much
It’s a great reliable gun I also have a 2 inch barrel Model 10 I carried them for 20 years in the NYPD , I’m retired for 20 years and still carry the 2inch Model it’s a reliable gun that I know I can depend on.
Harvey bullock?
Micah Bell’s gun
Hickok is correct not to turn up his nose at .38 too hard. I am a police officer and have seen fully grown men on various substances killed by .38 spl. Some in a single torso shot.
The Smith and Wesson K-frame is the ideal size for a revolver. Compact enough to conceal, but large enough to be easy to shoot. I love my .38 special K-frames. I wish they still made snubnose K-frames.
It’s best known as the Police Revolver (To people who aren’t as informed in weapons or want to pronounce it shorter)
Is the smith & Wesson 38 special victory model worth much or anything?
Can you use +p in it ?
So skilled..those gong shots are amazing!
Love these and the earlier M&P.
I recently came into possession of one of theses. It was a c model made between 1958-1959. Were those able to handle the +p self defense ammo or not?
My stepfather just picked me one up and I haven’t got to see him to pick it up yet.. But dang I really can’t wait to see him now lik
Hickok 45 is literally my favorite therapeutic YouTube channel. He’s like the Bob Ross of firearms, I love his calm exposition on the firearms. I love his expertise.
（M10は我が国でも人気の銃です。
エアガンとしてね。
いや～、カッコいい…）
I am a Japanese,but am a fan of hickok45.I am sorry that English is not good.Model10 is a favorite gun.The gun of the Japanesepolice uses 38special.
How much you guys think this gun is worth in these streets.. asking for a friend..
Love it but I prefer a nickel plated
Full metal jacket 38 special regular was used by the police. I intend to use the same once I am old enough to get one of these pieces of art.
hickock makes this look so small… i have a barrel-less one i rescued and it looks huge in my hands
An experience of HK Royal Police LOL nice
Great video, My great grandfather used this during his time in the MPD.
Model 10’s are still being made.
I’m carrying a model 10 4 inch bull barrel, the grip doesn’t print as much as my .45acp in lighter summer clothing
I own one of these. It’s a beautiful weapon with a nice weight. Mine was made in 1914
coolest thing ever
Great video. Have always enjoyed firearms especially wheel revolvers like the Model 10 and the Colt single action army. I have found watching your videos very educational and they help me to enjoy my interest in firearms even more. Thanks
I recently received one of these or something like it. The metal looks very old. CTG printed on the barrel along with some dates "09 14". Also theres a stricker on the hammer. Im not an expert but i wouldn’t be surprised if it was made around ww1. Just having some trouble researching the value of it. Serial # wasn’t recognized at s&w lol
Just bought this beauty as my first ever gun just 2 weeks ago!!!! 🙂
Once I get my open carry license this is gonna be my open carry self defence gun, I might even have one of those old military flap holsters because they are my favorite
just picked up a model 10 today, figured id see if there were any good videos on them and here we are
I absolutely love my pre model 10. Never part with it.
I think Barney Fife had a S&W
It’s pretty accurate revolver, still good for self defence specially if you’re protected inside your home
Anybody know what speed loader he has? Pops has same exact gun been looking for a couple. None of the new models fit correctly
Found one in rough condition for 300. All I really need to do is get new grips, but otherwise, it’s pretty nice.
one of my grandfathers (brother of my maternal grandmother) carried this and a Chinese TT pistol
he was one of the commanders of Liberation war 1971
There is just something about a revolver dumping the casings and the brass bouncing on the ground…
I love the Colt Python or Navy Colt but the model 10 always get the job done
That’s my first pistol and one of my favorite I own today .38special and it has good stopping power IMO but I’m no expert or anything but I know I wldnt wanna look down the barrel of one.
I am so happy you made this video I inherited my dads .38 service revolver And I love it…I am glad you didn’t blow up on the .357 mag….I love your range
My late father, an FBI Agent from 1951-1967 carried short version of one of these on his hip during is entire career. Right hip holster, similar to Hickok’s. One night in the early ’60’s, he boarded his bus home from work in downtown Detroit. As he turned to walk to his seat, the fare box railing pulled back his overcoat, revealing his S&W to the driver. A few stops down Charlevoix, the bus was boarded by the Detroit Police, who asked my dad to step out for a meeting. Needless to say, Dad got a free ride home that night, courtesy of Detroit’s finest.
Is it safe to shoot 38 S&W ammo? They fit…
