Gas Ring Moved from Yoke to Cylinder

[Doug M.]

Wasn't there some specific issue with the M66s and the gas ring that impacted the changes? I recall seeing something about this in the "Industry Insider" column in American Handgunner back in the late 70s. It's actually the only issue about gas rings I recall hearing about before.

Thanks!

Like others have already stated, I'm grateful for this thread! I got my SCSW only about six months ago and kept reading about the movement of the gas rings and wondering what that was, especially when you don't have the before and after examples of the same gun. And thanks for the pics Guns4Fun.

Glad to help. I know there are lots of times things get discussed on gun boards that many reading along have heard about but aren't sure just exactly what they are, that are being talked about.

As they say- A picture is worth a thousand words.
