Well....when I say old I'm talking about a mid 80's model. Y'all probably remember when the influx of Australian Police S&W Model 10's arrived here in the USA. They were picked over pretty quickly and sold out shortly after. I was lucky enough to buy 2. One was in wonderful condition (my lovely daughter decided it was hers, so I gave it to her) the other was beat up, but it shot well and locked up tight.
I took it to a local gunsmith who gave it the once over twice, gave it a trigger job (DA pull is around 4.5 pounds and slick, no stack) and had it cerakoted. I was going to have a matte black finish done, but decided on Patriot Brown and Armorers Black after I bought a RIA 1911 in similar colors.
I almost wish I had a before picture, this gun was missing so much finish that it was almost "in the white" in places. I understand that a cerakoted revolver might not be for everyone.
