Model 41 extractors & barrels have always been a crapshoot . Dimensionally the 41 barrels were never really "match grade " . As I compete I had mine relined with a Lothar Walther liner . Alex Hamilton in San Antonio does an excellent job for a reasonable price , cheaper than you can buy a new factory barrel . Back in the day the Hamden produced High Standards had the best production barrels on a American made pistol . Generally speaking fit , finish & machining was better on the older pre A s/n 41's .
