You were smart to get it and that's a great price. I got one NIB two or three years ago with the original box and papers and paid a small fortune for it but I'm happy. Three inch barrel 66's are very rare.

You are right to be upset. About 1999 or 2000 I got a Performance Center blue K frame .357 revolver that I bought online from Lew Horton (I think). It was about $1000. It came without a FIRING PIN. I returned it to the factory and they put one in. (Duh!) The quality of workmanship was good...
