Lot of nice 41's. Always nice to see them. My father never bought anything, but the best with his guns. It was a pleasure getting this one and others. My dad always knew how much I love his guns, guns in general. I love to shoot.

If you are referring to the one I posted with the purple background in the photo, I paid $600 for it back in 2005. In seven years, it has probably appreciated quite a bit; I'd guess in today's dollars if I wanted to sell it (which I don't), it should go between $850 and $1000. That would include the original factory box, spare magazine, etc.
As always, the price depends on what the owner is willing to sell it for, and what the buyer is willing to pay. Mileage varies.

Buy it if it's in good or excellent condition. Do not hesitate.

I am buying a Model 41. Does anyone know if they have any problem with any 22LR ammo. also would you get the 5.5" bbl or 7" I am using it for target shooting only and have arthretic hands. I have other 22 Semi autos and they will not fire some 22 ammo.

Starting a new topic would probably get a better response than posting in the middle of an ongoing photo thread.
There are some people in this forum who have more kowledge about the Model 41 in their pinky than I do in my entire body.
I would try to do a search here in the semi-auto forum and go through the threads at rimfire central's smith & wesson forum.
If you do a google search for s&w model 41 maintenance one of the results will have detailed instructions with photos.
Standard velocity ammunition is what I have seen recommended. I am very new to the Model 41, but CCI Standard Velocity seems to work well in the pistol.
I don't know if the 5.5" or 7" barrel would be better for arthritic hands. I like the 7" better so far. It's a little lighter & I seem to shoot better with it. I like the 5.5" look better & want to like it better.

If I can only have 1 barrel it would be the 7". That's just me. I do have the 7" and a 5.5" Clark BO
start with one. see how you like it. you can always purchase the other

Nice thing about the 41 is you can have both barrels since the barrel is removable and the barrels are interchangeable. I have one with a 5.5" barrel and I have a 7" barrel on order.

Yes, but there are more than two barrels.......there are:
7 3/8" with Muzzle Brake
5" Field
5.5" Heavy
5.5" EFS
7"
5" Optics Only
Plus there are the Bully and Clark aftermarket barrels.

Mine is sure sensitive. Won't shoot Winchester or Federal. After a trip back to factory, they called and told me to only expect CCI to be trouble-free. I thought that was pathetic! Mine does OK with Remington.

Here is mine, made in 2002. I didn't care for the stock thumb rest grips so I changed to Herrett grips.

Here's mine, an early one with the long barrel, compensator, and cocking indicator. Shipped in May, 1972. Custom case, made in Okinawa.

I like the looks of Annie. I'm thinking of putting a Trijicon RSR on mine. Did you attach it to your rear sight or is the barrel drilled?

Hi, I am acquiring a 2008 Smith & Wesson model 41 with 7 inch barrel. Looking forward to mounting a Red Dot Scope and noticed yours which looks great, compact and nice clean lines. Just wandering if you can provide me some details on the scope mount and where / cost to obtain it? Thanks for your time, Cheers, Keith.

Sorry for he not so good picture, walking hurts a lot right now and I'm doing as little as possible.

I just joined the forum and found this thread in a search. I will post some pictures of my 41 as soon as I take them. I was wondering about a production date as it is much lower than those shown in this thread. The serial number is #46xx.
Thanks for the help,
Rick
