Lost Lake, Cyrano, thanks for the kind comments. And I've really enjoyed looking at all these other wonderful 41s. Seeing so many in one place is sensory overload for me. But handling, owning, shooting one makes a person wonder how anybody can get excited about plastic guns, aluminum frames, key locks, and all that. Sure, it's functional, and modern, and easier to carry, and maybe very tactical , but S&W 41s they ain't.

And never can be.

I wish more young shooters who inherit these pistols would hurry up and realize that 41s are totally obsolete and should be sold or traded off...cheap.
