Earlier than I thought.
Thanks for sharing the research.
How is a Nylon 66 anything but beautiful?
Remarkable design for 1959.
Wayne Leek worked on that. He also designed the 1100.
I have a Nylon 66 just because everyone should have one.
Never thought it especially accurate but if you miss you have a whole tube of fast backup shots.
When I was a kid, it came to me fairly quickly on that people who built stuff didn’t build stuff out of plastic to make it better.
I had that figured out, with all my neighborhood buddies, by about age 7. My Dad helped, but, I knew.
A Nylon 66 isn’t beautiful. I never wanted one. I wanted a Belgium built Browning auto .22, grade two. I wanted that from about age 7.
I still don’t have it. But, the good news is I don’t have a Nylon 66, deliberately, or by accident, either.
Best,
Ted
