I have been wanting a little Model 36 nickel plated .38 special for awhile. I've always been a sucker for the old school S&W pistols and I love the nickel plated finishes. Yesterday I found an old-but-like-new nickel plated Model 10 .38 in my FLGS and slapped some money down it right away. It's exactly what I've been wanting. While $550 was a little more then I've been wanting to spend, trying to find a smaller conceal carry then my full-sized xD .45 and had been looking at a $400 Kel-tec, it was worth it in my opinion.
I will get it Thursday and then can determine it's exact age with the serial number. I'm really excited, this will be my first S&W .38 and I've wanted one for a long time! What do you guys think? Good deal? Any tips on having one of these? Got any good recommendations for holsters?
I'll be plugging a couple hundred rounds through it this weekend (going shooting with a friend who just picked up a .357 S&W and a new xD 9mm) and will post pictures later.
