Smith & Wesson Model 66-3 ''Critical Moment'' From the Twelve Series of Double Action Revolvers
serial #BEW0522, 357 Magnum, 6'' heavy barrel with an excellent bore. In 1990 Smith & Wesson manufactured a series of revolvers for Ellett Bros. of Chapin, South Carolina. There would be 500 manufactured each month themed on different S&W advertisement from years past. The April edition was based on the ''Critical Moment'' advertisement showing a cowpoke trapped under his steed revolver in hand and aimed at a Texas Longhorn steer staring at him menacingly and preparing to continue the attack. The sideplate is laser engraved with this scene and is marked ''486 of 500'' while the right side of the barrel is marked in bold letters ''CRITICAL MOMENT''. The revolver appears as-new-in-box, the stainless steel surfaces rate excellent. This edition was equipped with a .400'' semi-target serrated trigger, .500'' target hammer, and they retain full hard chrome finish. The smooth goncalo alves factory target grips feature silver S&W medallions, are cut for speedloaders, and remain in wonderful condition. This gun features a red ramp front sight, white outline micro adjustable rear sight, and it correctly times and locks up. The revolver includes the factory two piece box that is correctly end labeled and numbered to the gun, cleaning kit, manual, and paperwork. Originally these guns were to be sold by subscription although the full collection of 500 revolvers for each month was never completed due to a parting of business relationship and it is not known exactly how many of each were completed. At 500 guns each month they remain a scarce commodity and desirable collectible. (8B11739-15) {MODERN} (1200/1800)
