Thanks for the reply's guys. If the set screw goes into the barrel I am not going to achieve my objective and have the sight secured with the same integrity. I'll go ahead and spill what I'm experiencing with the sight adjustment. Just had a barrel relined and got out to shoot it for the...

Yes, these are adjustable, but I need a more right windage adjustment. I've had my barrel relined and the POI has shifted quite a bit. I've got accuracy, but need more adjustment to get perfection.

I need to move my rear sight in the dovetail. This is on a 5.5" barrel from the late 70's early 80's vintage (pre Kreg version). I see one set screw. Is there anything else holding the sight in place? I loosened the screw and attempted to move the sight with a few light raps with a soft...

Funny story that explains why my wife does not cook. It's become a multi-generational theme in the family. My father-in-law tells the story the best. Apparently, my mother-in-law thoroughly impressed my father-in-law by inviting him over one night for a casserole. The impression was...

Timing is everything. A month or so ago there was a nice 41 on GB that was missing the rib. I seriously thought about it as a project gun as the price was right. I didn't think there would ever be a way to replace the sight rib. I always wonder how these things become separated. I'm sure...

Thread drift welcome - especially if it will extract nuggets from Jerry Keefer! To keep this going I want to continue on the accuracy topic and the possibility of diagnosis of issues. The targets I have printed show some promise of great accuracy with a few disturbing flyers. This was off...

Thanks for the reply's guys. I'm curious - what is considered good accuracy with the model 41 off a rest. I assume most folks don't have a Ransom, so as most of us do with sand bags. Perhaps I'm just not a very good shot.

Guys, Thanks for the reply's. Tom - Good information. You have cemented my decision to never drive a pin on my 41. I've detail stripped my SIG's, but this is a whole new ballgame. Hadn't seen that collection of information. 505Gibbs - Ransom rest would be the ticket. Wish I had access to...

I'd like to get a good discussion going regarding tuning a Model 41 for accuracy and function. I realize these guns are wonderful as is, but what kind of things have been done to really tune the accuracy. I'd like to hear what you've had done and what the results were. Particularly interested...

Guys, New here and have very much enjoyed learning from this valuable resource. I'm on the hunt for my first Model 41 and seek some advise. I've focused my search on an older model. I like old guns and am after the aesthetic that comes with old guns. The Model 41 has quite a history...
