I've had a completely unjustifiable urge to buy a big, shiny revolver for a couple years now. I've loved the Colt Python since I was a kid watching Spenser for Hire reruns. However, obscene prices and the fact that I haven't seen a box of .357 on a store shelf in a year pushes me to make a wiser choice.
Enter the 610.
I've had a long term love affair with the 10mm, having past owned a 1006, 1076 and had and carried a Glock 20 for the past 15 years. I have plenty of 10mm ammo stockpiled so that is a non issue. The option to shoot cheaper and more readily available .40 is also attractive.
I want the 6.5" version as I feel it makes more sense being that I already have the 4.6" barreled Glock. There is a nice, pre-lock 6.5" model for sale in local shop for $899. It's been there for 7-8 months so I'm sure I could get it cheaper. It does have the fluted cylinder and I really prefer the look of the un-fluted but that's not necessarily a deal breaker.
So, 610 owners, tell me about these guns. I haven't owned a revolver in well over a decade so tell me anything I might need to know.
Any thoughts and especially photos are welcomed.
