    S&W mode 41 shooting 6" high at 25yds

    Your right. Holding 6" low I can shoot nice group in 10 ring. I believe I will try and get a lower sight. I have plenty of guns to shoot, but always feel like I am spending time with Dad when I take it out. I did give wrong date. According to serial number it dates 1957. Thanks for everyone's...

    taking a picture is no problem, but I have no idea how to post the pictures. There are pictures of my 41 on this sight, but I guess due to failing memory I cannot remember how to post them.

    I will take pictures. As much as I have been around guns my whole life I did not recognize the term barrel extension. My father purchased new in 1958. He did not make any changes. I have his 1957 model 27 .357 magnum as well. No changes to that either.

    Maybe he is talking about the muzzle break. I have lowered the rear sight as low as it goes. I am lost at this point.

    If I take the barrel extension off will that show me anything. shooting it without the extension that is.

    I am a little confused. If I am correct if I am shooting high then my rear sight needs to be lowered (which is as low as it goes) or my front sight needs to be higher.

    shooting off sandbag. Yes, I have had several people shoot it. I have been shooting all my life. It groups great...just 6" high.

    I have a 1958 model S&W model 41 I received from my dad. Shooting 6" high at 25 yds. Rear sight all the way down. Any suggestions?

    Timing issue??? Help please!

    The two other gunsmiths said they don't work on old S&W because parts were hard to find.

    Took it to the range this weekend. Shoots like a new gun. S&W were the only ones that refused to work on it. The guy who fixed it was a old S&W gunsmith. I am very happy.
