vintage Model 41

Model 41 bought new in 1959 for $90., now with Clark barrel.

does S&W even manufacture the 41 any more?

it's listed in their current product lineup, but I have not seen it show up in any distributors for the past few years.

I just bought one of the last guns to leave the Houlton Maine factory. Smith pulled production of several guns from Houlton last winter. Apparently they have not made any in Springfield yet, so who knows when they will actually get around to it. Historically they would knock out a small run every so often. If you have one, keep it. If you want one, buy it.

I am NO good posting pics but my 41 was born in 1958 and my 46 was born in 1962. Both are the long barreled units. Either size is good for bad hands as I have a pair of them. Major surgery on both paws numerous times. Limited grip problem but love them anyways.

M-41's

Time to contribute. Top 41 with 7 3/8" bbl. sports a 41-1 short conversion & is on an A 485XXX frame. The 41 with the stainless Bully bbl. & scope is on an older A 40xxx numbered frame. Am told the A was used on duplicate #'s. Third #A 482XXX has a 5" light weight field bbl. with a red ramp front sight. The three spare barrels are 1) 5" light weight field bbl. with a patridge sight. This one has the lazy & and exposed barrel weight. 2) 7 3/8" barrel with false muzzle and 3) 7 3/8" with lazy & that had been D&R before I bought it. Have substituted original grips with Herrett's trainer grips. Have all the muzzle brakes but prefer to install false muzzles. They are easier to clean.

It's nothing special

but here's mine. I often consider selling it because I never shoot it. I prefer my Ruger MKIIs. But I probably won't sell it because if S&W quits making them I know I'll want one again and they will be more expensive.

It came with this barrel.

I bought this barrel on Gunbroker. When I shot one in college this is how it was configured and I prefer it this way.

A local gunsmith had these grips sitting around. They don't fit the pistol great but they do fit my hand pretty well.

This 1986 model has never been a picky eater. Have yet to have a jam, FTF or any other problems shooting all types and brands of 22LR. Not a safe queen just a shooter.

New Model 41

I just came back from the FFL picking up a new Model 41 I ordered from Clark Custom Guns.
Sorry for the pictures but still at my office with the Fluorescent lights.
Has a 6.5 Custom-STC barrel with Aristocrat rib and threaded.
Hard Chromed the frame and has Clark's trigger work done to it. Unfortunately it will shoot better than me.
The test target was 10 shots inside a 3/4" area at 50 yards.
My weekend is set.

Thanks! The can in the epic is a Sparrow but I have....several other cans and the Sparrow will probably not be on there long term....a little too heavy and probably overkill.

What is your favorite suppressor for the Model 41?
I have a silencerco ordered for my wife's 22/45. Trying to decide on one for the 41.
