That's very good news. Sad that there's no 5". Only 4" (let's hope 4.25") and 6.5"

Great news can’t believe it took this long.

I like the S&W gen III but triggers are atrocious!

I had both a 1006 and 1066. DA trigger was definitely not good but I just loved the guns otherwise. I only sold them because I needed to make rent when I was younger. A major regret especially considering the prices they sit at now.

I still have 4506 ....built like a tank but the trigger....

Yeah the 3rd Gen S&W's pistols are lookers for sure but can't stand the never ending and heavy pull of the DAO versions.

Always nice to see new stuff on the market and I am a 10mm fan. Wish they made it in a version like the 4.2” partial lug 629. GP still makes a little more sense to me but these are no doubt very nice.

Agreed that re-release of a more refined 1006 would be awesome.

I am so excited and need at least one!

For backwoods protection ( if we could wilderness carry)I would rather have my 629 with my 300 hard cast

Me too but for fun at the range it’s hard to beat a 610.

If we could? I prefer the GP-100MC in 10MM. The "L" frame size makes more sense than a N frame size gun.

Take Care

So what dealer is going to take my money!!???

This may have just de-valued the 610 collector market. The original 610s were selling quickly close to $2000. ( I sold a 5” one for $1800 about 4 years ago).

The 5 inchers will still be fetching a premium since S&W doesn’t plan to make them at the moment. But true that all older M610’s won’t be worth as much with it’s reintroduction.

I have been after one for years so this is great news for me
