I suppose it is worth giving S&W a call. The gun is fine otherwise, it carries up well and the bore is good. I really would like gun devoted to shooting .38s; an understudy to my Model 28, as cleaning out those rings before you can shoot magnums is a pain. You would happen to be able to know the ballpark cost, by chance?

Guns may not be vintages of wine, but the attention to detail seen in my early 60s era 28 isn't so apparent in this early 70s 66. Still, the quality is still greater than a number of makes on the market, if you ignore the gap issue.
