Is my face red.
I guess, too much TV as a youth. I never even thought about this being gun abuse. I will never one hand flip a cylinder into my revolver again. Even if my favorite TV star looks really cool doing so.
Nice, informational thread. Thanxs.:o
Here are some pictures. I brought it home and found some problems. It is now on its way back to Smith and Wesson for some needed care, if it is deemed repairable it is still mine.
M66-1, SN.96K68XX, round butt, 2.5 inch, DPS#28043, pinned and recessed
I have one on layaway. PICK IT UP TOMORROW! Pretty much identical to yours. 66-1, Pinned and recessed, left side roll mark, 2.5 inch barrel with red ramp. Texas DPS Trooper pistol number 28043 on the lt side.
Will post the picture as soon as I pay it out.
I joined just for this thread
Here it is. Brought it home today. Model 66 no dash serial number 2k74###. It seems to sport all the right stainless parts.
Some guys brag their gun has never been fired. This one has never been cleaned. The brown stuff is not rust, I hope it is coffee and not...
