This Model 610-3 is built on Smith & Wesson’s large N-frame with a round-butt grip, providing a secure hold while keeping overall size manageable. The black synthetic finger-groove grips give positive purchase and help tame 10mm recoil.
The 3.9" stainless barrel carries a full under-lug for optimal weight forward balance and quicker follow-up shots. A pinned serrated ramp front sight pairs with an adjustable rear sight, letting you dial in point of impact with different loads.
Chambered in 10mm Auto and supplied with moon clips, the revolver also accepts .40 S&W, adding versatility for training or range use. Six-round capacity keeps the cylinder profile familiar while delivering notable power.
Smith & Wesson’s internal key lock provides on-board security, and the -3 engineering change adds MIM small parts for consistent trigger pull. The smooth trigger face complements double-action work, and single-action breaks predictably crisper.
Made in the USA and cataloged under part number 12463, this revolver retains its factory satin bead-blast finish across the frame, cylinder, and barrel, matching the stainless steel construction throughout.
