The 10-10 heavy barrel I had was similar to the 13-2 I currently have, but not quite as beefy. They are both "K" frames, but the Model 13 K frame feels a notch heavier and more solid than the Model 10. Enough so that a 4" heavy barrel on the 10-10 threw the balance too far forward, but the same barrel on a 13-2 feels fine.
