Aside from the annoying locking mechanism S&W slaps on almost everything, have any of you S&W aficionados handled the new model 66 guns that came out 2 years ago to compare them to the old k guns? In your opinion did they fix any of the shortcomings of the old 66/19 K frames? I know you could crack forcing cones on the old ones by shooting lightweight high power 357 loads with them over time.
I always loved the balance and feel of the old 19/66 4 inch guns versus the L framed 586/686 guns. Plus I don't really dig fully lugged barrels, preferring the aesthetics of the partially lugged ones.
