This revolver was made when the TRS-80 was the pinnacle of computing technology. Blade Runner was in theaters. Ingrid Bergman and John Belushi died, and Argentina invaded the Falkland Islands.
Even if the J. Geils Band and Survivor aren’t with us any more, Smith & Wesson still is.
The Model 10 has been around in one form or another for over a century. Until this year, it has enjoyed an unbroken production run, the longest of any firearm in existence. That’s not hard to understand, as the .38 Hand Ejector is a reliable, accurate and powerful platform. All modern double-action revolvers can trace their lineage to it.
