I was pming with dingus, and he said .41 "stuff" is hard to come by. So, I did some searching and found this site.....h t t p://www.dnmsport.com/41LC/41%20LONG%20COLT.htm
Hopefully it will help everyone with a .41 Long Colt.
I will be posting pics when it gets HOME!
Now for holster, belt, dies, molds, .......HEY Ben, got some .386 lead for me?

Congrats on the purchase, I have two of them,,,the old one in the wrong caliber (.38) and the young one in the wrong caliber (.41), They're delicate little prima donas but just a real joy to own, best of luck with yours.

Damn...Beautiful!!

A little loving and shes going to be your best friend.

I only have long arms, but have always loved that model...I think billy the kid had one "purely heresay mind you"

I have always wanted a 1860 also, but all the old single actions "and your double"really catch my eye and imagination.

There was a nice open top in the pistol auction a bit ago...I hope it went to a good home...I wanted it bad but at that price there was no way I could get it past the warden...ER ...I mean wife.

Good score sir!! I know these beauts dont come cheap so love her and im shure she will return the favour!!!
 
Well done Leroy, I've been shooting mine a fair bit now and love it. Mine was made in 1881 same year as the Kid was shot and the OK coral. Got a gunbelt
and holster on E-bay for $65.00 but the belt is too small anyway the girl said
they are getting some more.
 
jet...
what ebay store are you looking at?
Buffalo Arms has a couple of nice X-draws, and belts, unless there is someone
up here that has some nice ones.....any leads, fellas?

See Leroy i told you you would get lots of leads on brass and bullets and stuff if you Started a Thread.

Nice lookin thunder! :)
I got my 41 LC bullets from Gads. they do take alongggg time to get to you tho 3 months for mine.
My Brass i got from a fellow CGNer. not sure where he got it.
the USA most likely.
With ALL the 41 LCs in Canada ya think someone would get some supplys up here to sell.
 
What size waist are you Leroy I just got a real nice gunbelt and holster from Texas but the dam belt is too small for me.It'd for a 40-44 and it fits my Thunderer like a glove and the loops hold the 41cal bullets just right. If you send mr you e-mail I'll send you a pic or two.
