The local pusher has had a used, blue 6 1/2 in BlackHawk in the case for awhile. Hoped they would sell it to someone else and remove temptation but NOOOOOOOO! Made them an offer the other night and it followed me home. So now I've joined the 41 mag club,won't ever replace my .45'Colts but at least it starts with a 4 .

I asked that question one time and ended up with a wife! May your new acquisition be as fortunate for you as mine was for me!
If it were supposed to be easy, they'd have sent my little sister to do it.

Junebug The 41 is a lot of fun. The 41 can be a lot of fun as a special too. I think Star-Line is making brass for the special. I know cutting down brass is a hassle, and you can't add it back later. Here is a lot of information: A sticky at castboolits.gunloads.com Good luck with it both gun and loads.

Hmm. Well, I guess we'll allow you to keep it. You just have to promise you'll take care of it.

You can keep it but it is your responsibility to feed it.

The nice thing about them is they don't eat much if ya don't force feed them. Hopefully it won't be a picky eater cause lead and copper plus a little powder for flavoring is all its going to get. May have to name it Stray Dog.

JB, I found out you can`t go wrong with a 41 by any maker....Bore dimensions were set at .410" when introduced and there they stayed giving consistent accuracy in any brand.... Freedom Arms is the only maker, I believe, with a different twist rate to stabilize heavier bullets....when I finally jumped on the 41 wagon I was pleased beyond belief with the accuracy they showed.....your "Stray Dog" has found a home.....PETA loves you.....
