One sold on gunbroker the other day for $1,700.
They have three right now, one is over $1,600, the second is over $1,300 and the 3rd I bid $700 on and didn't even meet the reserve price. :o
I hear ya! The pricing has gotten out rageous! :o
I keep looking... 8)
The thing is, I really want one, and once my credit limit gets increased on my credit card next month, I'll probably be one of the idiots that pay the big bucks for one.
Maybe cheaper to convert a GP100?
I dont get it. They make a 41 magnum. Helllloooo people!!

Yea, but it is not a 10mm! ::)
Besides I have a beautiful S&W Mod.29 44 Magnum that shoots like a laser beam even with the factory target sights...
I think alot of people, me included, are really 10mm fans and are pretty caliber loyal. I have very few non 10mm guns, and 90% of my reloading supplies are for 10mm. 41Mag is great, but I don't want to invest in a new cartridge. It was hard enough to justify my .357 revolver purchase. Some people are perfectly fine with having multiple calibers in their collection. I have a few, but not looking to expand it. The 10mm is so easy to load to different specs, from plinking to magnum power, revolvers to semi autos to carbines. If something bad ever happens in this world, and the SHTF, I'll feel comfortable knowing that i have one standard platform across all gun types with thousands of rounds in stockpile. And with .40 being fairly common ammo, if 10mm ever became impossible to find, a revolver that can shoot .40 s&w is a good thing to have.
I hear ya on the prices. Around the first of this year it seems 610's were going for $1100-$1200 on GB. I decided if I ever found one for $1000 or less I'd buy it. Now $1200 sounds pretty good.
Question to ponder - seeing this demand, why doesn't S&W make another run? Couldn't they sell them for 40%-50% more than what a new 629 costs?
I should probably keep my trap shut, but I just listed mine GB... :-[ I need the cash flow to help finance my P220 10mm and some other things I need for my writing, but I'm not dying to sell it, either. I just made the reserve what I paid for it. It cost me almost $900 when I bought it in about 2009.
If it's any consolation, I'll post the link to the P220 article if I get one. ;D
P220 10mm out for sale?
No. They don't even have prototypes yet, but I'm on the list with Sig for a T&E model.

Noooooooo!!! Don't tell them that!!! If S&W were to do them again they ought to be priced on par with the 686, OR LESS :) that way they'd sell a boat load of them and give us devotees another 10mm path to send our money down. Also, if they're going to do it, they must make an 8-8.5" with an unfluted cylinder ;)
I guess it's a 'sellers market' for the 610. A few years ago, I was going to sell a 610 NIB for a $1,000 and the buyer started making excuses about not having the cash all-at-once. So, I pulled-the-plug on the sale 'double-quick'. Money talks, and bullshit walks! I even reduced the gun a few hundred as a favor for this guy, since he wanted it so bad. I wonder what would happen, if I had, said two-grand cash? You tell me, what's the 'fair market value' for a scarce commodity?
I wanted one for so long but... pistols for auto rounds and revolvers for Magnum rounds 8)
Love to grab a revolver and a 1076. Guy at the range has a 1076 and I am trying to pry it from him. If that Sig comes available 1st, I will get that and disregard the 1076.
S&W needs to make the revolver again, there is a demand.

why did you join a 10 MM forum??...and is there such a thing as a .41 Mag semi-auto??
I would like one but have been looking at the online prices with sadness. I don't want one that bad.
I have had a couple of 610s and sold them both at a profit but have regretted it. Someone on another forum told me about an original 5 inch for sale at a pawn shop for $1200. I called them and bought it and hopefully will hang onto this one.

Sounds like a heck of a deal for a 610 no dash 5". That is the one I'm holding out for, since it would be a nice bookend for my 5" 629. Please post a pic when you get it!
Edit: Pacecars, just saw the pic you posted in another thread. That is freakin' awesome!

Worth repeating - Awesome!
I'm joining the addiction, need a revolver to keep my DW RZ10 company - have a cash offer in for a 6" 610 no dash - 98% condition for $1,400 - they are hard to find in the midwest!
USNMike
On the list. Just not going to happen.
Tells me that someone should bring this AND the .41 Magnum back
I keep hoping to find a cheap one at one of the "way back in the country" gun shows I go to.
I don't get it, what exactly is the attraction of a 10mm revolver? It's a semi auto round and it's about as powerful as you can get before the gun becomes impractically large, but in a revolver there are so many better choices that won't cost an arm and a leg. Even as a collectors piece I don't think they're worth what people are asking for them.

10mm. It's nuclear.
Yeah...At the current pricing there is nothing attractive about it.
Everytime I am out in the desert chasing down all my brass after a "fun" session I think it would be nice to have a revolver though. And I am not interested in other pistol cartridges. So, I get the draw, but not the economy.
Prices are out of control. I decided earlier this week to go with Mr. Clements conversion of a GP100. I figure it is worth it to me to spend the extra 200 Or So on a custom piece.
I am not trying to throw fuel on the fire but I have listed my 610 on GunBroker. I believe the market will set the price and people will decide how much they wish to spend on anything. I take great pains to accuratley describe and furnish the best pics I an able to take.
http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=493221973
Geez, I sold mine to a friend a couple years ago for 500 and was afraid I'd taken advantage of him... guess not considering these prices they are fetching today!

Thanks for the kind words Chriso. Last year I put my Performance Center 646 on Gunbroker and put a by it now price of $900.00. I thought that was a reasonable price for it. I noticed one identical to mine sell for $2900 earlier this year so I don't list a buy it now price anymore and the items I post will bring what someone is willing to pay and I will not feel guilty or consider myself guilty of price gouging.

That there looks pretty awesome!!!
Just to put the end to my part of this thread, my 610 sold for $1513. The market and the final bidder set the price. He is getting one fine revolver and I hope he enjoys it as mauch as I did.
I am sure glad I have 3 610's all no dash. Two of them are 6.5" barrels with fluted cylinders, and the third is a 5".
All of them are Great! shooters. :D

wheel gunner. ...congrats on the successful auction. I have a Blackhawk convertible in 10mm ....considering selling
to make room for the new Redhawk 45acp/45lc that was just released.
Your right about the market. Scarcity breeds higher bidding.

IMI made one (Desert Eagle) and I believe Coonan made one.
I
still love my 6.5" non-fluted 610, and no, it's not for sale.
Captain O
I kinda wish prices would start dropping. It's getting harder a harder to talk myself out of selling mine.

Badhammer, I feel your pain. I've fought the urge several times to sell mine, but I think I'm finally over it. I figure, that I'll never be able to find another one.

$2109 for a 4" 610-3 with lock???. Amazing :o It's a perfect example of 2 bidders really wanting the same item. The 3rd place bidder stopped just north of $1600.

S&W is more likely to bring back a 10mm revolver than the automatic.
Wanted the 1076 and happy with the P220, so its off my list.
Just want a 10mm revolver, maybe Ruger steps up.
Clement's Custom Guns is the only practical way to go to obtain a new 10mm Auto revolver. It is truly silly for S&W to watch the market for the 610 to reach ionospheric levels without S&W "seeing the 'pot-o'-gold' and not tapping into it's popularity.
How patently absurd!

Couldn't agree more. The clueless clowns at S&W need to wake up. They still make the 629, so how hard would it be to simply machine the cylinders and barrels for 10mm??
Saw a 610 yesterday at the Berea Ohio show,1st one I've ever seen in person. Was a 6 1/2" unfluted cylinder. Had a $2100 price on it.
A Dan Wesson 10mm revolver Power Pack would be the bomb.
I have 2 Dan Wessons, a 1911 10mm Razorback, and a 15-2 .357 mag pistol pack with 6 barrels, from 2.5" to 15" That would be AWESOME in a 10mm!

If Dan Wesson made their revolver in 10mm is would be a 'major' coup. Even if they did a trial-run of 500, they would all sell-out immediately. Especially, if this could retail below a $1,000 USD. I would jump-on that list. Hopefully, CZ may take the hint, and actually 'get-down' with it.

Earlier this year I asked the guys at the S&W booth at Dallas Safari Club if there was a chance they would produce another run of 610's. They both just kinda laughed at the notion, saying "that" market segment was too small. I really don't think they had a clue what the 610 used gun market was doing. Hopefully these two guys don't have any pull with what S&W does.
picked up the 610 I discussed in post #43. His $2100 table price was knocked down to $1500 offer. It was the first one I ever seen in person. Lot of money but it was my 'holy grail' gun with unfluted cylinder and 6.5" barrel.

That is a sharp looking revolver. I like the unfluted look.

Pretty much same here, I WANT one, but no way I am going to pay that much FOR one. :o

My god a 10mm pistol pack with multiple barrel lengths. :o
I wouldn't be able to contain myself or my wallet!
I'd be happy, if Ruger would take the plunge and make a 'Redhawk' chambered for the 10mm. It shouldn't be that hard, since they currently market a combo, in .45LC/.45ACP. Ruger is also, notorious for 'not' listening to their customers either. The GP-100 would have also made a good candidate as a regular production chambering in 10mm.

I would be all over a 10mm redhawk from the factory. Or a GP100.
Me too
Why not a Ruger 10mm in LCR? The format handles the .357.
I don't think the cylinder walls will still handle the pressure after you take another 20k off the cylinder walls

I have one just like it! :-*
If I had my way, I would want S&W to manufacture a new Model 610 with an 8 1/2" barrel, unfluted cylinder and no lock. This would arrange for the cartridge to reach peak pressure (and velocity) while taming the recoil.
Let's face it, when you can generate 1350 fps using a 200 grain JHP, 809 fpe is nothing to sneeze at! This is more than enough power to harvest deer at reasonable ranges.
Captain O
I always wondered why, Colt never tried chambering the 10mm in their Anaconda. Since these were available in .44 Magnum, and .45 Colt cartridge. An 8" inch version would have been awesome in 10mm. They were produced from 1990 to 1999, and for few years as 'custom shop' items. Nice to think, what could have been.
Excellent idea! I would have liked to see this development during the day. While they are reproducing the Model 1903 (in .32 ACP) the Anacaona in 10mm Auto would sell better. (I wish I had thought of it.).
