It’s wrong to brag right? 3” Model 66-3

I just traded two Bersa pistols + $ 425 for a new manufacture model Model 66 short bbl. I love revolvers, too. Before that I bought a new model 60.
 
You stole it....Someone show me one for sale in that condition with matching box for under $1500. I wouldn't let my -2 go for less than $1500 and I don't have the matching box.

I sold mine years ago,to,a friend who moved out of state and sold it. I've been looking for a replacement for years. That's one of the reasons I don't sell toys anymore. Congratulations on your find!
 
Definitely bragging rights!

I paid $1,000 shipped for a -2 in near mint condition with no box from a forum member last November, and never had a regret.

You did too good!

I had a chance to buy an identical gun last year for $700. I didn't need it for myself and would have flipped it, if I didn't have to do so much travel to put it on my license and take it off.It would have involved three long drives to the HQ of county police.
 
2 members mentioned $1500; at least one pointed out that $1200 on a sales site seems common. That would be consistent with what I recall of the few I have seen for sale here. My guess is that you paid no more than 2/3 of what it is worth, and likely a lot closer to half. It is a very appealing revolver, but given what financial priorities I have, I doubt I will ever own one. You did very well, and if you did not kiss the seller and buy him dinner, you should have to register.
 
Can someone tell me when the 66-3 was made. I just ran onto one in 2 1/2". Have a chance to buy. Need price. Excellent condition. Shot under 25 rounds. One owner.
