It is worth what you paid for it. Well done.

Greg, keep looking!

Greg, Take a cleaning rod, patches and some oil with you to push through the barrel looking for bulges. One of our guys bought a 686 with a bulge in the barrel and did not discover it until first time he cleaned it. Take a small torch with you as well to check barrel, chambers and timing...

It seems that a posting without photos is a cardinal sin, so lets see how we go! I have been very happy with the S&W M41 especially since removing the red dot training for more traditional revolvers which arrived this week. The two new to me are a 1971 Model 15-3 Combat Masterpiece and a 1977...

Thanks civil1977, that would work if the target was white with a small black bullseye circle, however the targets we use are all black with a tiny white circle for the bullseye which is why there is no contrast either side of the foresight when you pop the white bullseye above the front sight. I...

I understand what you are suggesting, but if you think about what you suggest the black target is still the background either side of the front sight making it slow and difficult for me to centre the front sight in the rear sight. Maybe as a beginner I am missing something here. I agree that the...

UPDATE This morning I had my first opportunity to use the new M41 since Xmas. At first I only used open sights and was disappointed with my scores as with a black target, black front and rear sights it was difficult to centre the front sight and hit the bullseye. I am pleased to report that I...

I now have the RMR in my hands but not fitted yet. We are having our summer Xmas break and no shooting for me, but will soon. Sunbird

Thanks maiublue, The Australian import agent has agreed to supply an original manual which is good news. I have to get the magazines from the importer as no-one else will ship to Australia without first obtaining Export / Import licences which is expensive. They are on backorder which means...

Whacking the muzzle with a rubber mallet is exactly what the Australian agent Grycol International told us to do. It worked, combined with a couple of minutes pulling and tugging. After reassembling we again had to repeat the whacking to remove the barrel. Hope it gets easier. Do you think I...

Range Report. This morning I had the opportunity to sight in the pistol. As delivered from the Performance Centre at 25 Yards it shot small 1.5 inch groups 3 inches low and 1 inch to the right from a soft pillow rest. Using CCI Standard Velocity Target ammo I had about five Failures to Eject...

Well Guys, I picked up the brand new PC M41 5.5 inch today. In the LGS it looked superb. Problems in no particular order:- I ordered and paid for a total of 4 magazines. Nothing said, but when asked why there were only two, a phone call advised us that the other 2 are on back order and that I...

The PTA (Permit To Aquire ) has arrived from Weapons Licensing so plan to pick up the PC M41 Monday. I have spent hundreds of hours pouring over internet sites reading up on M41's. Thanks for the wonderful info I have gleaned. Watch this space. Sunbird
