Default Mod. 66 Inquiry

I have a simple question, did Smith & Wesson ever make a four inch round butt mod.66 ? I own a three inch and love it and really love the grip of the round butt. I see a four inch round butt on G.B but I can’t remember seeing these on the forum or in the shops. Were they ever produced?
Thanks!
Hope everyone is in a good place!

66-5 came in a 4 inch RB. Probably later versions too, but I quit following or being interested in any versions after the 66-5. Regards 18DAI

I believe the 66 went to round butt only in 1995-1996, IIRC.
