"25K7xxx"

Looks like early 1978 according to Supica and Nahas.

Nice firearms, aren't they?

FPrice,

Thanks. Yes it is nice. Whoever owned it took nice care of the gun. It has a high polish to it. I almost thought it was a nickeled m-19. Bought some rosewood panel grips for it today and I have a silver tyler grip ordered for it.

It was born 1979 that was a good year. As for the tyler grip never liked those things I like finger groove/Combat grips better. :D

"What are the date ranges for the 66-1?"

1977 until 1982 when the 66-2 was introduced.
