First - let me plead my ignorance to revolvers! Please take it easy on me ...
I'm an auto man (Walther P99 and Kimber Ultra Carry), but am about to receive a blued S&W 66 in .357 w/4" bbl as a hand me down from my father-in-law and want your expert opinions.
At this time, I believe the gun has no sentimental value. That being said, is it anything special on its own merits? It's probably been shot infrequently, but it does need a good cleaning. Should I go looking for something to trade it in on? I figure I'd like to stay with a modestly priced DA revolver - one that'll pop .38's and .357's with a 4-6" bbl.
Is a GP100 / SP100 a good bet? Anything else?
