    No, it is the first engineering change, and therefore the second version.

    This.

    Smith model 66 was introduced in 1971.

    The "-1" modification, consisting of moving the gas ring from the yoke to cylinder occured in 1977.

    You didn't ask, but -2 came in 1982 and consisted of eliminating the cylinder counterbore.

    Well no one asked but I'll mention liking the 66 - 4 because the hammer and trigger were made of carbon steal and case hardened. [8D]
