Bud's Gunshop has Model 10s in stock.
More police trade ins. I just ordered a 3". Love that length in my Model 13 and figured the 10 would be good for practice, and something my better half would like.
Contact info, please

WC is probably referring to 'Bud's Online'
Used Handguns @ Bud's: http://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/index.php/cPath/654_774/Used+Handguns/
Square-butt M10s (probably 10-5s) with *TAPERED* 3-inch bbls (slight taper; tapered rib; somewhat scarce) are second on the list.
Price: $299

A slightly better pic (Example Only)
I found this pic on the interwebs to hopefully better illustrate the type of barrel the 3-inch Model 10s @ Bud's have:

The relatively thin, slightly tapered rib shows up better; the slight barrel taper not so much, but it's there.
I'm pretty sure buyers of the Bud's guns can expect the same sort of thing.
This type of barrel is analagous to the early 3-inch Chief Special barrels: Not quite bull or stovepipe in profile, but not the usual curved taper, either.
Many think they are the 'coolest' looking on both post-war models, and I tend to agree.

Looks like they sold out of the 3" models.
Not surprising if they sold out quickly
If GunBroker is any indication, three-inch K-frames are 'hot items' right now.
Some are virtually on fire (for example, 3-inch Model 66s for well over $1k), and word gets around fast these days.

I spent over 2 years....
...to find my 3" round-butt, heavy barrel Model 10, and was tickled pink when I got it (although, as you and I have discussed in the past, not so tickled with the way our local gun emporium handled the deal.....).
I understand; it's always the same for me
I want them all, so even when it does, the search never really ends...

..."was tickled pink"...
It's been a long time since I've heard that phrase. I remember my dad using it when we were kids. You may have just dated yourself, Glen...
Dang I sold a 3 inch 66 2 years ago for $350

Should have kept it. Someone said it was a "Treasury Model" whatever that means.
Musta been a McCoy that got it
