 Hello all, I have visited this site several times over the last few years and thought it was time to join. I guess everyone has a different path as to how they ended up here. Mine started with my first revolver a S&W model 57,(41 mag of course), which turned me into a .41 junkie. Anything .41 I became interested in, and whats next? The 7414 supermag Dan Wesson, after a long search I found one on GA about 10 years ago, brand new, NOS, from dealer in Michigan. I think I called 10 times before he opened the next morning! Now I'm a Dan Wesson and a .41 junkie. Have added a few since, 741, 7445, 715. Still looking for the right 40 or 740, 375, 745, 32 or 732. I believe there's long line for a couple of those after reading this forum, but I always hold a little hope and know I'll trip over them someday. I load for and shoot them all fairly regularly, but not as much as I would like to. Glad to see here that these great revolvers are not just being collected but used and appreciated for there quality and fantastic accuracy. Will be checking back more often. Thank you 41supermag.

Welcome to the DWF!  I think the 41 is about my favorite revolver cartridge to shoot as well.  The power of a 44 with a flatter trajectory make it a pretty accurate hunting caliber.  That and when I tell folks "it's a 41 magnum", I like the questionable looks on their faces...

Throw us a few pics when you can.

Welcome to the the forum. That rwsem guy and my brother, SteveCT, talked me into a 741 when I was looking for a 44 mag. I'm glad they did. It's a ton of fun!

I also have a 715 and a 7445.  It would appear that you also have the stainless addiction.

To the paranoid people who check behind shower curtains for murderers:

if you find one...what's your plan?

Looking forward to reading anything you add to the forum, but I am very interested to learn more about the 41 Mag.  Welcome to DWF

“We cannot but pity the boy who has never fired a gun; he is no more
humane, while his education has been sadly neglected.”

“When some of my friends have asked me anxiously about their boys, whether
they should let them hunt, I have answered, yes – remembering that it was
one of the best parts of my education – *make* them hunters.”

Welcome 41supermag. Owning a 7414 makes being a member manditory.

dwf-welcome to the dwf 41Supermag.  Sounds like you are following in the footsteps of many here with a healthy dose of dwasto deal with big-grin.   My favorite caliber is also the .41.  The .414 revolver cartridge is the best kept secret out there in terms of performance and accuracy in my opinion.  Glad you introduced yourself and joined us.
