Just picked up my 66-2

It's pretty mint with only a few barely noticeable marks on it. It locks up tight and the trigger pull is nice and smooth. The only ammo my LGS had in 158gr. .357magnum was a 20rd box of Hydrshok ammo for $34....no thanks. I guess I'll be buying some online or wait to come across some normal priced ammo locally. Anyway, just thought I'd share.

The grips are in really good shape and I have a Tyler T-Grip coming for it to keep the classic look.

Congrats on a very nice revolver. The T-grip will make a great finishing touch.

Now just get a good leather belt slide holster, speed strip pouch, and Buffalo Bore .38 +p 158gr LSWHPs (they will make about 1040 fps from your 2 1/2 barrel) and you are good to go.

Deaf Smith, I have speed strips, a pouch and a good belt already, but I need to find a good leather IWB holster that uses leather loops instead of metal clips. I have a Winthrop IWB holster for my XDS that is just perfect but they don't make one for this particular firearm.

Next thing you know you'll be out buying more!

You can't have enough K frames. And that one is a sweetheart!

Merry Christmas to you!
