I was out treasure hunting and ran across this nice 66-1. The grips aren't original, but that didn't make it a deal breaker.
I already have a nice 66-2 snubby, but I just couldn't say no to this one.

Nice find. Great looking gun. I have also been lookinng for a nice no dash or -1 to go with my -2. I will keep looking.
 
I've got one that I bought back around 84. I took it out of the safe last month for the first time in years. Great revolver. I cleaned mine for hours and couldn't get it looking as good as yours.

Years of carrying it took it's toll on it.
 
Great looking 66, I like the look of the recessed cylinders on the no dash, and the dash 1.
 
Congrats! It does not, and evidently will not, get any better than that! Enjoy your 66! Regards 18DAI.
 
I have a 66-1 snub that I bought a few years ago. It belonged to a S&w collector who had many, many unfired S&w's of all types. This one was his personal carry gun. The trigger was worked over by a top notch smith and it was custom fitted with night sights. It was polished and looks like perfect bright nickle. It is a fantastic gun...but in the original, stock condition a 66-1 snub is a classic and hard to beat. That's a nice find!
 
Good find. I have a 66-3 snub and when it comes to a nice P&R M66 I wouldn't have passed it either.
 
I took my 66-2 snub to the range yesterday, fun to shoot and very accurate as well!
 
Dont Flitz it to much...it will take away that mellow S&W satin sheen and turn it into a high polish finish...
