It really isn't new. Smith & Wesson produced 5,000 Model 610 10mm Magnum N frame revolvers in 1990-1991. However, they have noe resumed production and the 610 is listed in their current catalog. I saw one the new ones at the range on Sunday and fired 12 sots at 50 yards. It was very accurate and an impressive piece. It seems quite similar to a .41 Magnum in power and recoil. It loads with halfmoon clips like a .45ACP Model 625. It would be a nice gun for anyone who has a 10mm Magnum automatic and wants a revolver using the same cartridge.

Yeah, there is a 10mm Magnum. AMT brought out one of their magnum series of semi-autos for it.
Wasn't well received, and died pretty quickly.
As for the new S&W 610? They can choke on it.

The 610 is a REALLY versatile revo-you can shoot .40 S&W, 10mm "Lite" OR FULL-POWER 10's...no worries about feeding problems, either!!! WICKED FAST reloads courtesy of the "moon clips" and comparatively little recoil due to the overall weight. With .40 S&W ammo, my 610 [original production run, 6.5 inch barrel] feels about like shooting .38 ball in a K-Frme...schweeet!!!....mikey357
