My first was a Model 19 4” that I bought at Mack’s Sport Shop in Kodiak AK in 1980. I put about 1500 rounds of the old Lubaloy Winchester factory ammunition through it and when I left the island I sent it to my dad in NY. He called me when he got it and asked me how I screwed it up. Apparently I...

I was telling a buddy today that I want a snub 66 so I can carry both for the classic New York reload...... BTW sorry for no responses in the last few days, I was a recipient of the wonderful Vista Virus 2011.

Thank you Gary, I didn't see that on the site before. Might help others out too! Mike
