I especially like the 3” barrels. Have several of those. May put a model 65 3” up for sale and look for the 66 like yours.

S&W reintroduced them a couple of years ago. The same time that they came out with the M69 44mag L-frame. They come in 2.75" and 4.25" versions. They have a matte finish with the ejector rod and cylinder release in black. It looks nice. https://www.smith-wesson.com/firearms/model-66-combat-magnum
