Default Model 41 performance center

My dad and brother just bought a couple of Older model 41's and got me interested in buying one. I really like the performance center model but am having problems locating one. Does anyone know where I can get one?

Hello and Welcome to the Forum,
I've been told that production of the Model 41 is sporadic at best. I've been waiting for 2 months for a new 7" barrel, and it's not expected until August. There have been several posts about the quality of new VS old which may make some good reading for you. Have you checked the auction sites like Gunbroker? Good luck on your quest.

I have checked with all of the gun auction sites I know of. I thought I found one on gunsinternational but it had already been sold! I have been reading about new vs old this week and have come to the conclusion that in the looks dept the older ones are better but functionality they seem on par with each other and I really like the PC version so here I am lol!

Default 41

Hello, welcome to the forum,
you need all the model 41 Articles I have here, to tickle your
interests in the model 41s.
E-mail me, and any and all interested party's. Now
I have some of the Lovelace modified 41 articles.
I prefer the older models, and there is one on GB but it is serial number 1, and the guy is treating it as gold.

Only 2 months?, I ordered a 7" barrel last July. That will make it over a year since I ordered my barrel. I am pretty hacked off at S&W. Support for the Model 41 is nonexistent as far as I am concerned. I asked about a new front sight for my PC 41 and they didn't know anything about it or how I could order one. If they are not going to support the gun they should stop advertising it or occasionally making one.

I truly like my 41, but if I had it to do over again I would not have bought it.

Good luck with your search. The product sku is 178031. I have not seen any 41s at all since aug. I was lucky to get one of these PC guns last year. It is nicely balanced and fun to shoot

None so far. Mine like CCI standard velocity, but can't find any.

I have 4 bricks of SV awaiting a 41. Some would say that is putting the carriage before the horse but this day and time I'm not so sure.
