Excellent, thank you very much! Hmm, guess I'll have to quit using Hoppes #9. So far, the gun is beautiful. I was kinda wondering about using it outdoors, being a 4" .357, and how it'd hold up. But, heck, I've carried lotsa blued steel guns. I just like stainless cause I'm less worried about it. I've always taken good care of my guns.
I bought this Taurus M66 for 200 bucks used and it's excellent, extremely accurate, too accurate to leave in a gun safe for fear of finish wear. It is matte nickel, a beautifully finished gun with a little hint of holster wear on one spot on the cylinder. It's not that heavy, either, being basically a K frame. Been thinking of carrying it IWB from time to time. Heck, I guess I can get it replated if ever that is necessary. I feel like the thing was built to be used, not just be a range queen. It's too good a shooter to just leave alone and carry something else and of course being a medium frame .357, my only one right now, it's an extremely useful revolver for a lot of applications. I'm going to start carrying it more, I reckon.
