I am not a collector but if I had bought it and then went to sell it, I would had gotten beaten up because of the reblue.

I did however go the the local gunshow and after much fondling of many revolvers ,I came home with a very nice (but not perfect) original S&W Model 66 no dash with a 4" barrel. Anyone have a set of carbide dies they need to part with?

Thanks again,
I was going to that gunshow yesterday but came down with the flu. Better today, but not until too late to head down. Glad to hear you scratched your itch. Lots of guys like the old Colts and indeed they were fine weapons in their day. Lots of them are wore out though. If you didn't feel right about it, it probably wasn't right.
