What replaces the M66 K-frame in the S&W lineup?
If this is the case, I would also add an older M15 or M67 to your shopping list. There are oodles of them out there, particularly the former, and cheap LE trade-ins pop up on GB from time to time. BE WARNED: The M67 was produced for a few years recently with a two-piece barrel that HAS suffered a good number of documented failures. I would avoid these. Plenty of older (and newer) M67s have been produced with a standard-style barrel, so there's no reason to buy a two-piece M67 for fear of not being able to find another one.Still thinking through the .38 spl and ringing ears vs the .357 with the attendant noise.
only lightweight K frame ever produced
They aren't scandium-framed or factory-rated for +P ammo.Actually both the M12 and extremely rare M13 "Aircrewman" had aluminum-alloy frames and were both built on the K-Frame.
