Wasn't he the crooked detective who shot Denise Richards's character in, "Wild Things"? Darn, I hated that! I love Denise.
I can't recall the gun he used. I think Neve Campbell used a spear gun on one guy, and Matt Dillon had a spear gun at his house. I think one of the guns left by Denise's dead dad was a Walther PPK. ??
I need to find my DVD and see that movie again. I think it was Denise's best role, although I liked her in, "Starship Troopers" and as the Bond girl in that film where she played Dr. Christmas Jones. "The World Is Not Enough"?
Being stainless and perfectly balanced, this 4" ND is as fine a specimen as I own.

I've had a few 66s, down to one now.
The first was a snub I carried quite illegally while delivering pizzas and driving cabs during college in Illinois. I sold it off when I went in the Air Force.
The second was a 4" I bought on Guam. I loaned it to my then-fiance (now wife of 30 years) who kept it in her little Mazda pickup, mostly to humor me. One dark night she had a flat tire on the back road to Anderson AFB. No cell phones in those days. A guy stopped and helped change the flat, then tried to push his way into the pickup for his payback. She leveled the 66 in his mug, and not knowing what else to do rolled that hammer back. The guy backed out, and she just dropped the gun on the seat and I decocked it later. I sold it to another AF guy when I transferred.
This one I got from one of the founding members of the FBI's Hostage Rescue Team (HRT). He had it Magna-ported in violation of all Bureau regs, which bothered him not in the least. He traded it to me for a Marlin Camp Carbine just after he retired. He somehow had a large accumulation of .45 ACP ammo, and wanted to burn it up with a grandkid who was learning to shoot a rifle. Its a no-dash.
I'll hang on to this one.

How do you like the latest version? Been tossing that one around since it came out. Just never put the money together.No dash on top, 66-4 Lady Smith in middle, 66-8 on the bottom. So we have a P & R, a pre lock, and the latest version.

The latest version is my EDC right now. Fantastic trigger (after 500 to 1000) rounds. Very accurate. I sent it back originally to get the forcing cone and muzzle cleaned up. I plan on getting a 45° crown and an 11° forcing cone for lead reloads in the spring.
