That one should shoot good. I like those grips to.

Shoots like a rifle! You WILL like it. And how do you make the 3/8" small like that?

On a windows XP computer go to "Start","All Programs", "System Tools","Character Map". Then you can select what you want. You might have to change the font at the top of the Character Map tab.

Looks absolutely great. I have one and it was my first S&W purchase. New back when I bought it. They're great shooters. I love the weight and heft of them.

Congratulations on the purchase as that is a great looking revolver.

 

[S&W-Keeper]

Sure is a long barrel. it covers my entire monitor screen. It should be a tack driver.

Very nice! Have fun!

I know what you are thinking, is that 6 shots or only 5.

I bet it will be a real shooter. Enjoy your new purchase.

I looked at the photos without reading what you said, and immediately thought it's longer than mine. At my age that's nothing new! Mine is only 6". Hope the photo shows

Thank you all for the kind posts. I will post the range results hopefully this weekend.

You can also type your post, or a portion of it, into word processor programs like M$ Word or Word Perfect and then cut&paste.
Not quite as much of a hassle IMHO, but YMMV.

Guess that means that I get to shoot your 3" 66 first. Don't worry I have some special loads for you to shoot.

Congratulations on a great gun. I bought one like it last summer and I love it! If you think you like it now, just wait until you shoot it!
