Thanks for all the info guys. Here's what the seller said regarding the gun. Also, the asking price is $275 and that includes two boxes of ammo and a holster. Thoughts? "The serial number dates the revolver to 1935 - The barrel shows the model is a Official Police. This pistol was bought new...

So I just came across a Colt Officers Target Model in 38 Special. The owner says it is in good shape and shoots well. Reading reviews it seems like these revolvers were made well and are pretty accurate. I don't own any wheel guns currently and it sure seems like I could do a lot worse for my...

Hey Guys, I was wanting to take my M&P 15 AR over to NJ to shoot with my brother this weekend. I think that it would be illegal to own this gun in NJ, but would it be a problem for me as a lawful owner in PA to bring the weapon over for the weekend to shoot at a privately owned hunting...

Beautiful rifle. Nice video review! I was just at my LGS doing a transfer and I saw the scrawniest kid writing a check for one of those. Looks really nice in person.

You may be judging it a little harshly at 75%. Do you have any pictures? :)

I bet it is. I just bought a 66-2 with a 2.5" barrel. :)

Nice. The model 66-1 still has the pinned barrel (should see a small pin at the top of the barrel near the frame) and also has recessed cylinder. It is considered by most to be more valuable/collectible. There are better informed people out there, but it would maybe go for $600...

Hey there. Open the cylinder and look on the inside of the frame in the lower right corner. Should be a number like 66-2 or whatever the model number may be. If you could post a picture someone would definitely be able to tell you what model it is. How long is the barrel?

Been looking at this exact gun recently. Thanks for putting up the review. I'll be keeping an eye on this thread for sure!

Hey Bob. Thanks for the compliment! The 3" I was originally wanting to buy was a J frame M60. This guy is the 2.5" M66, you're correct. Sorry for the confusion! :) (PS - new pics and thoughts on the gun are in my last post on pg1 for those that skipped right to pg2)

Picked the gun up today! Looks really nice. Everything I checked on it seemed good (timing, bore, gap, lockup, etc). There is a tiniest smidge of side to side wiggle in the cylinder when locked up, but no front to back. I didn't have a gauge for the cylinder gap, but a piece of paper just fits...

Just some quick pics I took over the weekend. :)

Love the collection Mope! What grips are on your 66-2? Is that a 3" barrel 66-4 on the bottom?

Lol. Awesome! I bet shooting 38s out of it will feel like a 22. :D

Thanks Chindo! I spoke with him and he's leaving out the ammo (by my request) and including holster and grips for the $450. I'll cover the transfer fee. Should be bringing it home on Wednesday barring any issues with the gun when I check it out. Speaking of which. Are there any specific things I...
