Model 66-1 with grooved trigger.

[Muley Gil]

The first M66s had stainless triggers and hammers, but the alloy used was too soft, so S&W went to flash chromed carbon steel parts.

Regardless of the trigger, and folks have said it is correct anyways, that is a drop dead gorgeous 66. It is beautiful!

Flat out beautiful!

Love it!

My next S&W will be a pinned and recessed model 66.

Might wanna tighten up the forward tang screw on the rear sight on that 2.5" 66, MarcoV.

66-1 (bottom) in the 67K ser# range with a groovy trigger. I know it came from the factory like this because I bought it new in 1980. Joe

my 66-1 is identical to yours in every way with a grooved trigger

 

[RainDodger]

Interesting that there are those here who have a 66-2 that has a grooved trigger. I have a 66-2 that I bought brand new. Smooth trigger. Barrel is not pinned.

Transitions guns, left over parts -- all sorts of reasons.

Both my 66-1's have grooved triggers, 2 1/2 inch and the 4 inch. Pinned and recessed

I also have a 66-1 with a grooved trigger, and a 66-2 with a smooth trigger

Yeah...this pic is old. Now it's properly tightened!

So did any no-dahs 66 come with case-hardened triggers and hammers? I'm getting one with both.

Here is the link with the revolver in question. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
ETA removed link as per site rules.

I don't believe any came that way from the factory. However, it is easy to swap them into a stainless revolver. I know, because I did it a time or two for some of my cop buddies.

My 66 no dash 4" has grooved trigger. My 66-1 2.5" is grooved. My 66-2 3" is smooth, my 66-2 6" is grooved.

 

[Shooter Mike]

66-1 with grooves.

 

[Old cop]

My four inch Model 66 was purchased new in 1973 and has the smooth trigger, stainless adjustible sights & a pinned barrel.

I'm not completely sure which engineering change my Dad's is, but his definitely has a serrated trigger. I THINK his is a -1 also. I'm having him double check. We'll see if he gets time to.

This 66-1 dates from May, 1978 - purchased new in the box - and it has a grooved trigger.

My Dad just checked for me. His is a no dash.

My 66-1.... the way it came from the factory....grooved trigger....
