Analysis

This .41 Remington Magnum revolver offers notable precision, making it a solid choice for target shooting and hunting applications. Its ergonomic design ensures a comfortable grip, accommodating a wide range of hand sizes, which enhances control during extended sessions. Reliability is a key asset, with consistent performance across various conditions, though regular maintenance is essential to prevent wear on internal components. However, sourcing replacement parts can be challenging, potentially frustrating owners needing repairs. The trigger pull is smooth in single-action mode, averaging around 3-4 pounds, while double-action requires more effort, closer to 10-12 pounds, which may affect rapid follow-up shots for some users. Felt recoil is significant due to the powerful cartridge, potentially limiting its appeal for shooters sensitive to kick or those lacking experience with magnum calibers. Overall, it’s a capable firearm for dedicated enthusiasts willing to manage its demands.

Excellent camping gun and for packing lite in bear
By bunnytoo on 29 Apr 2024
My go to on day hikes where encounters with grizzlies would be rare and my .460 is not needed. Light, accurate (as a 2.5 inch barrel can be), reliable and very easy to carry accessibly. Great for when someone has to go off to go to the bathroom. Not fun to practice with, however I doubt I would notice squeezing of five rounds with a black bear down on me.

Zero problems

I rated the gun 4/5 only because it is not fun to do a lot of shooting. Everyone that shoots it follows up with a WOW etc., took some work to find some milder ammo. Wrist hurts after shooting about 20 rounds. Love the gun though, bought it used and it works flawlessly.
