S&W 610.10MM 4″ AS 6-SHOT – STAINLESS STEEL RUBBER

Few revolvers in the current catalog draw as specific a buyer as the S&W Model 610 in 10mm Auto — a stainless, double/single-action N-frame with a 4-inch barrel and 6-round cylinder. Range shooters and handgun hunters who already run 10mm semi-autos reach for it to consolidate calibers. TacticCAL carries it as a DOJ Roster listed handgun.

The 10mm Semi-Auto Owner Who Wants a Revolver Companion

The buyer who gravitates toward the Model 610 typically already owns a 10mm pistol and wants a revolver that feeds from the same ammunition supply. The three included moon clips make that practical — load, fire, strip, reload without converting to a rimmed cartridge. At 42.6 ounces with a 4-inch stainless barrel, this is a range gun, a hunting sidearm, or a home-defense option for someone who prefers a revolver platform. The adjustable white outline rear sight suits deliberate shooting at distance rather than point-and-shoot close quarters. Target hammer and target trigger reinforce that orientation. Crimson Trace or Streamlight accessories pair naturally for low-light home use, and a Galco or Safariland holster rounds out the range kit. Browse our full lineup of California DOJ Roster handguns.

Frequently asked questions

Do the moon clips work with standard 10mm Auto ammunition, or do I need special loads?

The Model 610 uses moon clips to headspace the rimless 10mm Auto cartridge in the cylinder — standard 10mm Auto ammunition works. The three moon clips included let you load and unload the 6-round cylinder quickly without converting to a rimmed round.

Is the Model 610's adjustable sight practical for handgun hunting, or is it primarily a range feature?

The adjustable white outline rear sight lets you dial in point of impact for a specific load and distance, which is genuinely useful for hunting applications where you're shooting a consistent load at known ranges — not just a range convenience.

I bought the 610 at TacticCAL and the 10-day wait has started — what should I pick up before I come back?

Source a CA-compliant locked transport container before pickup — required for transporting the handgun. Stock up on 10mm Auto ammunition for your first session. If you're adding a light for home use, Streamlight options are in stock. Bring valid government ID when you return for the safe handling demonstration at pickup.
