Default Found one of my Favorite revolvers today

Found a model 66 no dash, Minnesota Highway Patrol with 4 inch barrel today, brought her home and put the correct stocks on her and give her a few hours of Mothers polish. I'm happy with this one.. tomorrow we will shoot it.

Got one just like it. It may the best all-around handgun ever produced.

Congratulations! I have never owned a 19, or 66. Have shot them though. It is not too late though. Let us know how it shoots. Bob

Got one too...except mine is a '72 production, meaning, SS rear site & SS front site without red ramp. Your first picture shows an excelent example of "timed" screws, which for the life of me, cannot get mine to be.
Beautiful gun, nice grab.
