.41 Magnum with a 10" barrel???
Did Smith ever make a .41 magnum with a 10" barrel in nickel? A seller says he has one for sale. Could it possibly be a Silhouette I don't know about? Thanks for your help.

First one I ever heard of unless it's something out of the custom shop.

But, if it was, I highly doubt it would be in nickel, unless the guy can't tell the difference from polished stainless.

More than likely a 29-3 Silhouette in .44MAG.

I have run into something like this in the past as I have stumbled on folks that include the cylinder measurement as part of the barrel length. Can you ask them to re-measure it? Kyle

...and the text says two with 10" barrels and adjustable front sights were made as prototypes by the factory.
