Model 67

[RGNewell]

So that's $350, plus an additional $200. The gun then costs, in effect, $550. Sorry, but I'm not spending $350 on a 'pig in a poke' to spend $200 more to make it right. YMMV.

It's not just right, it will be a laser.
Some of the best deals I have ever made other were afraid of.
That $200 gets me.
All internals polished
DA & SA trigger pull optimized
Chambers cleaned, polished, throat corrected and numbered.
Internal trigger stop.
Timing corrected if needed.
Forcing cone set to 11 degrees.
Head space and cylinder cap corrected if needed.
Barrel re-crowned.
All by one of the best pistolsmiths in the country.

Here she is. They assumed it was a police turn-in, but maybe not?:
- no explicit police markings, unless the frame stampings are indicative of a police armory?
- it's a no-dash. wasn't the Dash-1 used more by police for the improved sights?
- would a LEO add a trigger shoe?

I think I'll remove the trigger shoe first thing.

I love it! That thing will shine up like a new penny! Congrats!

Here is my model 67 no dash. Bought it ten years ago or so. It had pits

and scratches, so I had a local smith bead blast it. I like the result. The

stocks are Spegel designed, made by Butler Creek, and marketed by Uncle

Mike.



The Myres model 624 is it's favorite holster, with both a retention strap

and a dog ear. The silver dollar belt buckle is my birth year (1935).

Nice. I like the matte stainless look.

Is that orange paint on the front sight? My old eyes will need more contrast on the front sight. Wonder if the rear sight can be replaced with the blued rear sight from the Dash-1?

$550 is still at least $100 - 200 less than I've seen lately. Jus' sayin"....

Oh, my, $350 is a STEAL!
Paint? probably. You should be able to scrape it off easily if you don't like it.
Sight change? Yes. Be sure to keep the original so you can return it to the gun in the unlikely event that you decide to sell it down the road. You could also save the $ and just paint whatever glares with flat black model paint (or flat black nail polish if you can find it.)

 

[RGNewell]

Don't paint the rear sight. I'll trade you a black sight if you must have it.

It;s not orange paint. I had the smith that did the bead blast
also cut the notch and inserted the red front sight. And I don't
know why I would want to replace the rear sight with blued?

Nice early "no-dash"
This one is a little earlier, a 3K (first year production)

Another vote for losing the trigger shoe & leaving original stainless sight alone. Use a little sight-black when you shoot. Cleans right off with no alteration.

,,,,,still l@@king for that 66 no-dash,,,,

I bought a Model 66 ND almost 40 years ago during a big round of police trade-ins. Typical 4" with stainless front and rear sights. Back then, these were regarded as "surplus guns" so I rebuilt it (by just selective parts matching) and used it for several years, then had a 6" barrel installed. Several years later it became the basis for "Project 616." The price way back then was about $189, IIRC, so $350 today sounds more than reasonable. Put my name down after that of RGNewell if you decide you don't like it! But you won't make that decision, I bet!

What is the grip and where can I find one?

Because I have a no dash that has CCSCPD engraved on the frame. It is actually my current carry gun in an El Paso saddlery Sky six rig.

Nice score!

I'm happy it was still waiting for you when you went back. Enjoy it!

Nice revolver! I bought this very well maintained, lightly used, first year no-dash Model 67 about 7 years ago and paid $350, so you did well!

Pachmayr Presentation Grips.

I was told to hang onto these Grips, because back in the day,

these Pachmayrs were made in California and now the plant is in Mexico.

 

[B_Still]

Does anyone know what the stampings on the grip frame represent? Circle-P? Triangle-D?

or the "V" on the cylinder?

I had my wifes and my issue model 67-1s out just the other day. Neither gets shot anymore, but we will never get rid of them. I replaced the hammers from the double action only LAPD issue back to original. Both have other modifications.
The heavy barrel and model 17 front sight on mine was a popular modification during the 4" only time on LAPD,(before my time) lots of the cutdown model 14s had a 17s sight or the sight off the 14 if it was old enough to be pinned. Saw a few with pinned ramps but they were rare.

So your HB 67-1 is a mod, and not an agency-special order? Looks like the 4" HB 14 with Patridge sight my supervisor carried. Loved the looks of that gun. Shot like a target revolver (which it was). Forgive me, your HB the one on the bottom, correct?

My 67 no-dash is rarely shot, but it always walks out of the safe to shoot a perfect score on CCW renewal. After 19,000+ rounds, it knows what to do. Maybe next time, I'll use the trigger and not let the gun work by itself. Be safe, partner. Check 6.
