Default New (to me) 66-1

Just bought a 1980-vintage Model 66-1 with a 2 1/2” barrel. It belonged to a Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Deputy. His daughter said he carried it when he was a detective. It looks like he took pretty good care of his duty weapons. And the trigger feels like someone has been in there. The DA breaks at a very clean 8 1/2 pounds. Accuracy was superb with +P .38s out to 25 yards.

I had a 66-5, but the -1 was more appealing so I sold the -5 to pay for the -1. That’s not too crazy, is it?
