Default New to me model 41

My LGS bought another 150 gun collection from a person who loved his guns but never really ever shot them. I grabbed only one this time. I like model 41s and already have a 1979, more of a shooter grade which I will now run in steel challenge and see what I can do. This new one is precious, 91,000 serial 1966/67 production, nice grips, no scratch anywhere, blue as far as the eye can see, a sweet light and perfect 2.75 lbs trigger and I can always see if it's cocked...sometimes only a new gun grab can help.

I shoot them all, this one just not in shooting games but more for meditative target shooting.

Beautiful gun, I hope you shoot with it and don't keep it in a closet.

I think you'll find that you like it. I find the 41 is my go-to pistol for bullseye competition and other rimfire handgun competition.

Niceeeeeee! Looks like it was rarely if ever shot. I love the vintage models with the cocking indicator. SCORE!! I've got plenty of .22's and a M41 as well but would have grabbed that one myself!

Nice find! M41's are great when they're in a good mood. Some can be cranky. Enjoy it and shoot the heck out of it.

One note: This is what will happen with many of our safe queens when we leave for our reward. Somebody will buy a pristine, unfired specimen and shoot the heck out of it!

That’s a nice one Mark.
I am down to two,
One to shoot and if I live
long enough to wear it
Out I have a back up.
