By definition, no. They are still manufacturing guns and ammo.

As far as the ".44 vs .41" theory, yeah I guess. If that's what matters to you. Of course then you shouldn't have any N frame .357's either. I'd also say that the increased weight is an advantage.

I reload so the ammo "problem" isn't one. It doesn't cost anymore to tool up for .41 than .44. If you don't reload, O.K. then I get it, but for those that reload this is not a factor. For non-reloading casual shooters and the independently wealthy the .41 does have a factory ammo availability disadvantage.

To me the .41 and .44 are equal. With maybe a slight advantage to the .41 in that they often go for a bit less than the .44. Everything else is a tie.

I shoot one because I ran into one at an attractive price. Mine came with 200 rounds of once fired brass, 300 rounds of loaded ammo, and a set of dies, at less than what a .44 would have cost me. It's more accurate than any of the .44's I've had but I'll concede that may not always be the case.
