Karl un-fucked a couple of my revolvers for me late last year. He did the work fast, too.
I'm glad somebody else picked it up before I could.

That's the coolest model 66 I've ever seen. Now I have to try and find one for myself. Congratulations on your score, make sure you update us with some pictures!

I picked it up today. It’s a really cool gun. I really like the bead-blasted finish and the action job.
I think that a 3” K-frame is about the perfect size. I have a 3” 686 CS-1, but I think I’ll prefer the K-frame to the L-frame.
I’ll probably end up getting new grips for it, if anyone has any suggestions.
Awesome, man. I'm envious!

I'll be honest, those pachymayrs look perfect.
Do you want g10 or wood?
I like the looks of the Pach’s, but the seam is a mess in the area under the trigger guard, and left a place on my middle finger after just a little dry firing. I suppose I could work on that area and smooth it out.
This will be a working gun, I don’t want any fancy wood or anything...honestly, rubber or G10 would be just fine.
