I found an excellent Pistol Smith in Tenn: his name is: Hamilton Bowen of: Bowen Classic Arms Corp.

Mr. Bowen states that in his opinion the L frame is not strong enough for .41 magnum , but he will re chamber one to .41 special and keep it a six shooter. I am too lazy to readjust my loading dies ,so I want to stick to .41 mag.

The Tarus is starting to look a whole lot better to me now.
