There is a history to this firearm. I was able to find this on an US online gun site. The cost is not that bad, around USD $400.
Obviously I did not purchase this for its fire power (it is only a 38SP, what do you expect?), but there is a sentential value to this piece of history.
When I received the revolver, I did my usual – clean/lube the gun. It is relatively “clean”. Not too much gunpowder leftover – barrel is clean and same for the rest. I will just leave it “as is”, as stock as possible – no upgrade.
I took the revolver to the range, just to fire a few round (out of my box of 50, I only did around 30 rounds – see photos for whatever ammo left). No “kick” at all – even less than my 9 mm.
I just want to point out a few “special” on this revolver:
* It used to belong to the HK Police force (sure – duh!)
* There is a marking at the side RHKP 7337 – I guess it used to belong to PC 7337
* To make the deal “sweeter”, this Model 10 is silver, not the regular black/blue color
* I recall the HK police firearm's color is black – I wonder why is this “silver”? May be it belong to a higher ranker office?
Seeing at the last photo, I have put this “history” in my trophy case and left it on the wall. The old Royal HK Police badge in the photo was a gift from my friend (he bid it for me from HK Ebay).
On the other hand, if anyone can updates me (or everyone else on this forum) what’s equipped with the current HK police that would be great!
Thanks again in advance!
