    Dry Fire a Model 41, 22LR OK, or Not OK

    Is there another way to de-cock the hammer after shooting?:confused:

    New to me M41

    I couldn't find your exact serial #, but the chart I have says the BMC29XX (BMC prefix) was in 1998. The 1997 #s were UAMxxxx. And nothing was listed for 1998. So I figured that the 29XX could have been a typo for 27XX and there was no other BMC listing..... So my best estimation is 1998. :D...

    Help me understand how the 41 is designed for S.V. only

    My 41 is reliable and accurate with Rem Target at 1150fps. I recently got the Wolf spring kit, so I'll see how it groups with CCI SV. I've posted this pic before, but here's what the springs look like: my factory spring is next to the ruler.

    Model 41 Chow?

    Hi Karl After reading all the responses I wrote to S&W about it. I asked them what specific ammunition the M41 factory recoil spring was made to function with: This was their answer: "We use whatever we can get from our suppliers at the best price. We did not design that model to handle a...

    Model 41 Chow?

    Here's an update on the Aguila Target Rifle, CCI Standard Velocity and Federal Premium Gold Medal Match. Aguila: The Wolf springs for the 41 arrived today and I headed down to the range to see if the Aguila was going to shoot with a reduced power spring. Big surprise. It functioned with the...

    J Frame: Bodyguard vs. Centennial

    I carried this LtWt Colt Officers for 20 years. About 10 years ago, I got a LtWt Centennial to go with my SS Chiefs Special. I liked it so much I got the titanium cylinder version a few weeks later and have been carrying that ever since. Here's a quick and dirty pic right out of the pocket...

    Model 41 Chow?

    Hi Roger Agreed, I was just using the factory numbers as a reference point. Probably a lot slower out of my 5 1/2in barrel. Shot a NRA club match tonight against a team from NJ. Got a 256 with iron sights, factory spring and Remington Target ammo. Not great, but not embarrassing either and...

    Model 41 Chow?

    I would think that is the case. I just ordered a spring set from Wolf because the recent ammo I have purchased is relatively unreliable and anything rated below 1150fps will not reliably cycle the action (with a clean, wet gun). What I ordered: Reduced Power...: 6, 6.5 and 7 Lb. Factory...
