Poor @Mark_Mark missed out on this one…I basically bought it from one of his neighbors :oops: ok so it was actually 40 or so miles away from him. It was 2350 miles from me, however. Lol

that right… this and MANY other Gems are coming out out the PNW, especially Western Washington. Boomers are cashing out and their anti-Gun children are having non! save your $$$$ @silicosys4 more coming out
 
I saw a “Pinto” S&W at a gun show a while back, but the seller admitted he made it that way. I didn’t get a price and judging by the crap he had on his table I would be leery of anything he “put together”.

That is a real beauty you have there @Yamifrk :thumbup:
It looks great with that long barrel.
On a snubby - pimp gun
On that 57 - cool gun. :cool:

6 years ago for me, they didn’t have anything I was interested at the time. But very interested in them now. I remember seeing 9mm/1,000 for $189 out the door, State Trooper Colt Trooper $800, 375 H&H Ruger #1 $900 (new). But the Gun shows here have pretty much stoped because of the 2 week waiting period

You’re welcome.
I don’t hand load .41 Magnum but if I had an 8 3/8” bitchin’ looking shooter like that one I would be reloading .41 Mag and shooting it often.

they should do a .41 Super Mag!
 
You did right well there champion. About a month back I got a text that read "talk me out of buying this".....the cats out of the bag now, as we see,I'm a terrible voice of reason. Sure is a nice piece, some things just can't be passed up.

@Mark_Mark and @Pat Riot, They do make both a .41 special and a .41 super mag ( known as the 414 super mag) the 41 special is more common than the super. Most guys just down load regular 41 mag cases for softer shooting rounds.

I guess there was an attempt to make a .41 Special for the ammo market but alas no one on AmmoSeek has any right now.

I would have to say that everyone, except one guy, that I have known that has or had a .41 Magnum revolver reloads for it.
A guy I knew in Oregon refused to reload ammunition but b****ed at least once a month that he couldn’t find ammo for his one and only revolver.
I think he just liked having something to complain about. 😄
 
A .41 special built like a charter bulldog except not made by charter would be great. Seems right up the Taurus/Rossi alley. S&W would put it in a L frame and charge too much. Would be somewhere in the ballpark of a 10mm auto revolver. As a 10mm fan I would happily get down with that.

Did you say Freedom Arms.......
That thing was just too good to pass man, you'd be kicking yourself if ya missed it. Especially in 41 mag.
Looking forward to a range report. Excellent score man.
