M36 & M60 are 5 rounds J frame. M36 is black, M60 is chrome (the real one should be stainless). M10 is 6 rounds K frame. And there are many others with K frame like M13, M19, M64, M65, M66.

it would just be the m36 markings that defines it but by polishing it you could turn it in to a m60 i just anwerd my own question

In the real firearms world, a M36 Chief's Special was a 5-shot .38 revolver with a 2" barrel. The M60 was a 5-shot later model chambered for the .357magnum round with a choice of either 2" or 3"bbl. That's the main difference.
You can have them either blue or stainless finish. I am talking about the real S&W revolvers ofcourse.
