LawMan Mark, SASS #57095L Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Love me some 10mm, but I'm "meah..." in a single action. I can get 10mm performance out of a 38-40. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think a SA revolver in 10mm is a bit odd. If one is counting on factory ammo, yep. I load both calibers. There are precedents. The Ruger Blackhawk in 38-40 and 10mm came out several years ago as a limited edition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jabez Cowboy,SASS # 50129 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Shush,,,,,,,,, don't tell Folks that the 10 mm is just a Short . 38-40 .... Jabez Cowboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Three Foot Johnson Posted November 23, 2019 Author Share Posted November 23, 2019 I have my doubts this is a production item... I can't find any mention of it anywhere. It seems like a very odd thing to produce. The 10mm AUTO marking on the barrel appears to be laser engraved instead of roll engraved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warden Callaway Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Now I'd like a 38WCF and 40 S&W combo. I could get free 40 S&W brass every time the local sheriff and city police come to the range and practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three Foot Johnson Posted November 23, 2019 Author Share Posted November 23, 2019 Ruger made a few stainless convertible 38-40/.40 S&W's for Davidson's back around 2000 or so. I've got three of 'em, two consecutive. 674 - 4 5/8"ers 753 - 5 1/2"ers (edit) Lawman Mark beat me to it! My three are all 5 1/2" too, so we might have another consecutive set between us!

Dantankerous Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Isn't 10mm a rimless cartridge? How does that work in a revolver w/o half moon or full moon clips? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three Foot Johnson Posted November 24, 2019 Author Share Posted November 24, 2019 You'd have to cut the barrel back to around 4" and remount the sight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just add in a .44-40 cylinder and you have the best of the best combination. Just have to have a pair of rifles to match the cylinder chambering. Handload the ammo to match ballistically. 8.0 gr Universal behind a 213 gr bullet in the .44-40 and 7.5 gr behind the same slug in the Maggie, for 950 ft/sec from a 7-1/2" barrel.
