I really identify with this comment. My longtime goal was to find a 2.5 inch bbl model 66 and was only able to find a 64-2 so I took it. Now I think I like it just as good as a 66.
IMHO, a Kramer Leather Horsehide OWB scabbard. To me, there is no better!
You have some really nice revolvers! Honestly, my preference for the short barreled 66 was cosmetic. I never shoot magnum cartridges, only .38 special, so that is not an issue. I really like fully shrouded ejector rod, I like the longer cylinder as it just fills the cylinder window and looks more finished, if that makes sense. And then you have adjustable sights, but I've come to believe that adjustable sights are not as crucial on a snub nosed revolver, and fixed sights are more durable.The 64 is a pleasure to shoot compared to the lightweight revolvers. Keep looking there are plenty of 2.5" 66's available. The 3" version is scarce and much more expensive. Pictured: 3" 66-2, 2.5" 66-1, and 2" 64 no dash.
