You could get the tubes replaced in the night sights that are on it if you like them for not much $ but you would have to send it off to the manufacturer of the sights.

It’s pretty easy. You have to break the old screw to remove the sight blade but that’s why they include a new one in the kit. You do need something to flare the screw into the nut though.

S&W inserts are formed (melted plastic) into the front sight blade. It isn’t really a ‘dovetailed’ insert.

A white outline wouldn’t have been standard for an M66 in your serial number range but it would have been available. Both the plain and white outline rear sight blades are available today.

True. If you were to send it to them it would cost you $$ for freight. Give S&W a call if you want to send it to them. They may send you the shipping label. I have had a few worked on by S&W and they have sent me the shipping labels. One was warranty but the other was a 66-1. If they won’t, you’ll only be out a phone call.
