First off I would like to thank all the great posts and info. I made a deal with him today. I'm got the pistol and the 3 full boxes of 125g hollow points for $525.00 plus 5 chickens and some produce when it's ready.
stop laughing!
I know it's crazy but I have a produce farm and I raise chickens. That's what we do in Northern MN. So the 66-2 is now mine and i'm hoping to put a shell or two thru it Monday. A sound off so to speak for all of our Veterans and servicemen and women. God bless our fallen heros. Enjoy your Memorial day
will put up some more photos later
I put a few rounds thru the pistol just to see how it handled and then wiped it down and took some more photos. I can see how this model would have been a nice carry gun back in it's day. I have bigger hands than most and it fit pretty well in my hand. It balances out good too. I'm not comfortable with some of the smaller carry guns that i can't get my pinky on. I have to get bigger handled pistols or put the mag extentions on some. They print a bit more but i'm more comfortable shooting with all my fingers firmly on the handle. All in all this 66-2 is a very nice pistol....![]()
What is the "F" for on the face of the cylinder?
The Forum will have to answer why the "F" on the cylinder face. I have no idea. "labworm"'s suggestion is good enough for me though. I did put 357's through it and it does "bark"...
Fine pieces "labworm". I will be paying more attention to the S&W line of revolvers. My local gun shop has a few used pistols and i know i have never seen a S&W revolver there. That has to say something about them....
Just a little note:
Be careful because the 66 is known to feel lonely without it's little brother the 60![]()
Be careful though...now that you've tasted the fruit of the forbidden tree, you might not be able to stop at just one.![]()
