Sure looks like a nickel 10 to me."No, but the model was preceded by a few Model 10's in .357."
Maybe that's almost what I was trying to remember, that some Model 10s in .357 preceded the Model 13 (since they're both blue). Thanks.
I was asking because this is advertised as a 65-1 in .38 Special. It has a pinned barrel, and the cylinder looks too short to be recessed which would indicate it's a .38, but it looks more like a nickel 10 than a 65 to me because it so shiny. This is the only pic.
The model 64-1 was chambered in 357 Magnum for the Oklahoma HP in 1972. It then became the 65-1. There was never a 65 no dash or a 65 in 38 special."I believe the model 64 was chambered in 38 special and then the model 65 was sold to the Oklahoma Highway Patrol in 357"
That jarred my memory a bit. Maybe what I was trying to remember was that there was no 65 No Dash. Is that right? I'm off to GB to snoop around.
Edit: found neither a 65 No Dash nor a 65 in .38 Special, but there were two .41 Magnum 65-7s with 8 3/8" barrels in completed listings.
The 64 is a stainless version of the 10. A nickel 10 is still a 10.Isn’t the 64 just a nickel or SS model 10?
Just to further complicate the issue, the Model 10 was available with different barrel contours.To confuse people further, adjustable sight and fixed sight guns have their own models as well. For example models 10 and 15 are the blued 38 special k frames. The 64 and 67 are the stainless models. Also the model 10 and 15 can be had in nickel. 6 models that are essentially the same just different sights and finishes. And when you get into the 6 inch models there is the model 14....list goes on and on.
