All my Smiths (I think)

All the talk about the 66, thought this may be interesting. I bought 3 guns, one of which was a S&W 66-3 for $400.00. Sold the other 2 for $450.00. Serial number is BFT1310. Cannot find the year, But I have not looked real hard.

No on the Red Dot. It was just fine on a Browning Contour .22. The Contour was just as accurate as the 41 5.5". The 5.5" is a performance center 41. Thanks for all the feed back. Will re-examine the barrel.

In my observations, the 50AE is a pussycat compared to the S&W .500 MAG & .460 MAG. Never shot a 50 AE, but was on the KCPD range when one of our officers shot his. And I have shot several hundred rounds of 500 S&W and 460 S&W from 3 each of my own guns.

Bought a S&W model 41 7-inch barrel in 2024. Shoots 3-inch groups at 25 yards securely from bench pistol rest with CCI standard and mini mag ammo. The same ammo at same distance in the 5-inch barrel shoots 1/2-inch groups. Both barrels is topped with a sig Romeo 1 red dot. Any ideas on my failure?

This is 1 of 3 guns purchased for $400.00. Sold the other 2 for $450.00. Did pretty good on that deal. June, 2002. 66-3 SN: BFT13xx First 66 bought new in 1974 costing $150.00. The model 60 cost $110.00. Both were purchased for LEO duty. Both sold out of severe economic hardship. Was happy to...

Thank you. I did go with the Weigand mount. It is on it's way

Did Did that and bought it. Thank you very much. Just hope the Sig Sauer Romeo 5 fits properly on it. Have several other Romeo on various other .22 pistols.

Been searching for the proper scope rail that is correct for the latest production 7 inch S&W model 41 barrel. I wish to mount a Sig Romeo 1. Would appreciate information on the correct rail for that barrel. Thanks.

Guns make noise. Get used to it. I shoot many different handgun calibers from .22rf to .308 Encore and a .30-30 revolver and everything in between. They all make noise. I have as much right on the range as someone shooting .22 CB caps.

I have 3 switch cylinder Ruger Blackhawks one of which is the .357/.38 and 9mm. The 9mm shoots just fine in the .357 barrel. Like any firearm, different ammunition can show difference in accuracy. However, I never buy ammo. I reload everything I shoot. The 9mm shoots just fine in the Ruger using...
