Lust at first Sight.

Since I am a 1911 Junkie, I don't pay much attention to the larger revolvers(I have a model 38) Found this 66-2, and well lets just say, I will be paying better attention. Please feel free and post pictures of your revolvers.

 

[Coop45]

Congratulations!!

 

[flightsimmer]

S&W 629, S&W 66-1, S&W 63, Colt Delta Elite for starters.

My early 66 no dash snubby - gotta get some better wood for it! Now you need some more


4" 66 no dash pawnshop find


And the 6" 66-1


My favorite (obviously) MSHP - 66-1

 

[grainfed]

Here's my 66-2. A superb revolver............

Those K frame snubbies just reach and and grab you everytime.
I carry this one every day.

 

[highpower]

The M66 revolvers have a cult following nowadays and you have a very desirable variation there. The current trend is towards short barreled guns and there are few that attract more attention than a 2 1/2" 66. Congratulations on your new acquisition.

I have to make due with this old 4" 66 no dash.

 

[messerist]

Hey! I cry foul. No "drool bucket" alert. Ya got me salivating like a hound dog on a ham bone! Excellent find!

 

[MagnunJoe]

Revolver nut here. I have very nice high end semis but nothing tickes my fancy like a good old revolver.

 

[BrainOnSigs]

Love those M66s!

Some of my meager offerings:

S&W Model 27-2 and Colt Python:


Unfired M27-2 in presentation case:


1972 M27-2 with 1950's era Non-relieved, diamond, target grips:




1948 Pre-Model 10 with gold box:




Newest addition...Performance Center Model 627:


With Nill grips changing it to a square butt:

 

[Iggy]

Well if were gonna do 27's I gotta play too.

 

[BYJO4]

The K frame will always be extremely popular and bring nice prices depending on condition.

 

[Deaf Smith]

Well snubs.. I have a thing about snubs.

Deaf

 

[surjimmy]

Yeah, you need to see someone about that.^^^^^

 

[Jaymo]

Yep, you should definitely send some of those snubs to me. I don't have nearly enough.

I'm a lifelong Colt revolver fan, but the K frame Smith is the perfect size for my hands.

The K frame was also the quintessential .357 revolver of 1980s cop movies.

 

[Florida Guy]

You can't go wrong with model 66's

 

[PabloJ]

You need to swap those ugly sapwood grips for Uncle Mikes 'Boot Grips' asap. Every stainless or nickel-plated revolver deserves slim pair of elegant rubber gips.

 

[340PD]

My favorite, a 586 L comp 7 shot.

 

[PabloJ]

Very nice. S&W has someone good making grips for them now. The grips on 60s,70s,80s stuff was pretty pathetic. The only nice ones were non-checkered finger groove stuff from late 80s and 90s the checkered stuff they put on standard factory offerings was awful.

 

[mayassa]

I want a Performance Center Model 627 after seeing it in this thread.

 

[chriske]

Iggy (post n°11) :

Those ARE 3.5" mod. 27's aren't they ?
They are my Holy Grail guns.
Absolutely impossible to find over here.
(Did someone mention "drool bucket ?)

 

[Iggy]

Yup, 3 1/2" 27's. My favorite revolvers.

 

[RBH44]

Another fan of the 27's here. I've been Jonesing for a blued 3 1/2" 27 for as long as I can remember. Problem is every time one comes along I've already spent the money on a different gun!

 

[the_skunk]

Nothing like an all steel gun with wood handles
