Hello everyone. I noticed no one had any survey of 1866’s so I thought I would see what info we could all gather. As you all know records or sparse as are any special features other than engraving so I thought I would give it a try. Since the engraving is an entire issue itself I think I will stick to barrel lengths. If you want to note half mags or half rounds I will collect them as well along ith if they have fancy or deluxe wood. Please try note where the gun was observed (gunshow, auction, internet, personal collection if possible) Pics or links would be greatly appreciated. Feel free to send me pm here or email me at [email protected] Thanks for any input.
