October, 1975... I was issued this 66 no dash, NIB. A friend had a brand new set of model 10 stocks, which I replaced the target stocks with. I still have the box it came in, and the target stocks. I also used a Tyler T Grip, which I still have, borrowed it for another gun. When we transitioned to Glocks, I was able to buy it for what Glock was offering in trade in. Can't remember, but around $160.00.



This is one that I would never consider selling for any price. Many memories there.

When I was assigned to plainclothes duties, I was issued this 66 no dash 2 1/2". It was also NIB, and I still have the box for it as well. I was able to buy it also when we transitioned to the Glocks, at the same price as the 4".



When I retired, the Department presented me with my Glock, but it's not very photogenic. So I ended up with all of the issue handguns from my 22 years of service. Not counting all of the off-duty guns, which were privately purchased, and most of which I still have.

Best Regards, Les
