2-1/2" barrel M66-2 shooter

[BC38]

Looking at one in about 90% condition - minor handling marks and scratches. Gun only, no box or goodies, and wearing a Hogue monogrip. Mechanically tight, just a little dirty.
Priced at $449. Seems like a pretty decent buy.
Opinions?

Here in East Tennessee that would bring $550 to $650

An understatement if ever I heard one....

Buy it now. Clean it up, and shoot it. If you're not happy with it you can flip it and pick up $100.00 + for your efforts.

I wouldn't waste any time on getting back there.

I am Model 66 bias. Especially variants with short barrels. That being said $450 for one would make me feel like I hit the lottery. Don't pass it up.

I'd say check under the grips for pitting, but at that price it would still be worth it as a shooter.

That's an exceptionally good price, I'd buy it in a second. Here in PA I haven't seen any reasonably decent 66 snub go for less than $700 in a while.

You should have bought it on the spot

Looks like you are right. I went back this afternoon and it was already gone.

Oh well que' sera'! I already have a Rossi 971 snub that is as smooth as any S&W and I can't get them all I guess...

In the future don't worry about light pitting too much. I bought a 66 last year that I thought was dirty around the grip line. You guessed it. Pitting. After reading on the forum I started on the sides of the frame with 220 grit and worked up to about 600 until I was happy with the finish. I wish now I'd have bought an abused Mod 60 a LGS had for $199. Bet it could have been spiffed up nicely.

This 1, was marked $795 at a local gun show. I paid $725 for it, and do not regret it. Gun only with no extras. Of course the "rubbers" are off it. Bob

For $450 I'd already be at the range shooting it and not here chatting about it.

A 66.....it's a shooter, grab it.

I HOPE THAT YOU LEARNED YOUR LESSON----YOU SNOOZE, YOU LOSE ! !

Sorry for your loss..............................................

$449 was a steal

 

[ISCS Yoda]

Great price! Buy it.

Oops.....never mind...........

In upstate NY: $700 - $800.

 

[epj]

I'd have bought that one in a heartbeat.
