There I was working on the raffle items for our club annual and I saw it..
It was gleaming in the rack of new or special guns just in to the store. 24 inch barrel, in gleaming charcoal blue with a lever and hammer to match. A dark and glossy stock and forearm set off the blue and gleaming bright white receiver. I picked it up and looked at the fairly decent factory engraving. And then the confusion began.. This nice looking 73 was really a 66! I kept looking for the dust cover and the side plates, but they just weren't there. Never seen a nickle (or silver) plated 66, but there it was.
And yes, a new gun from Cimarron. I got busy getting our raffle stuff put together and forgot to ask for details. Learn something every day, yessiree.
Adios all,
