Really want to disasseble the new S&W 610 for polishing but I have to wait until I get my garage cleaned up since I'm still a gimp after all the surgeries.
I think Ive found the right combo for the task after realizing hand polishing wasnt going to cut it unless I wanted to grow older than I already am during the process.
Got some cotten wheels to go with the the Flitz polish and it's a huge difference!!
Spent 5 minutes on the barrel and the difference is amazing!!!
You can really see the difference between the barrel the frame and the cylinder that I havent touched.

Very nice! I've been wanting a revolver to keep my other guns company, but I don't know what yet.
If you just want a good revolver with plenty of power I'd reccomend the S&W .357,you can shoot .38's through it that have less recoil for target practice and load it with .357 for home defense.
The S&W 610 in 10mm. is slightly more powerful than the .357 but the ammo for the .357 is more readily available....at least in normal times.
I specifally wanted the 10mm. so I could have it reamed to accept the 10mm. Magnum which is a wildcat round thats hard to come by unless you buy from custom ammo manufacturers or you reload your own.
All and all the .357 is the most powerfull revolver that anyone can shoot.
Thanks much for the info... I have shot James' .357. My brother in law is going to let me take a few of his out to see if any strike my fancy... I think they all strike my fancy. I even love James' black powder revolvers. Lots of fun to shoot.
