41 Mag day

Very nice. I really like the 41 mag too. That custom Magnaport is pretty neat.

Had my eye open for a stainless Blackhawk but one never came up, so I decided to get out of the calibre before the end and sold my 8 3/8" 657 which I regret. A bigger regret was missing a 4" 657 unicorn that was classified restricted. I think that went to Twisted Canuck, so at least it is in good hands.

The M57 was my second big frame pistol after the M29, I always liked that caliber. I'd love to have one in a Blackhawk.

Add an M19 into the mix and you have the perfect trio!

Beautiful collection Dan. Do you have an 1894 Marlin in .41 to match? ;)
 
The 41 magnum caliber is a cartridge that was sadly overlooked. It has close to 44 magnum power with substantially less recoil.

Will be a caliber I will own in a lever gun once Henry makes their current lever action carbine 41 magnum in a side gate model.

Who doesn't love the 41 magnum!........:)
 
Sold my 6inch 657 a few years ago,still miss it but have kept my Marlin 41 mag. In its infinite wisdom the Sk. game department has removed the 41 mag as legal for white tail, but added the 223.

I really didn't notice much difference in recoil between the M57 and M29 but then again I was younger, tougher, and dumber back then so maybe there is a difference.
I'd love to have a lever gun in 41 mag though!

Slightly less bullet weight being pushed at like speeds, slightly heavier like model revolvers. Ergo, slightly less recoil. - dan

Not being a reloader, I was shooting factory 41 mag. Most of the ammo I could find (mainly Hornady) was actually loaded a little hotter, than a lot of standard 44 mag ammo. Granted, a lot of the standard factory 44 mag ammo (WWB, Fed AE) has been detuned somewhat.

Hi gdawg. Why excactly do you regret your 8 3/8" ?
 
that is one caliber I have not played with, Did have one in a RugerBH from a estate, but sold it before I got a change to try it.
There was also a BH in 30 cal.
