Never had a pistol this accurate.

Just wait 'till I get a little practice under my belt.

Not sure what year it is (#A600049) or if the box is correct (stamped inside: "Oct 16 1975).

Shot it today for the first time!

Don't own one, but the first .22 pistol I ever shot was a Smith 41.

It was a darn fine shootin' gun...even i kept them all on the paper @15Yds
 
Beautiful gun.

A Model 41 is definitely on my "hope to own one someday" list.

My uncle had one that he foolshly traded away and has regretted ever since.
 
I still have the one I shot with Army 5th. Inf. AMU in the late 1960's.

7 3/8" comp barrel, 5" lightweight sport barrel, & barrel weight set.

Ohhh, that's nice!

If you ever have to sell it, I get first dib's and promise to keep it till you're able to buy it back. :)
 
The model 41 has always had an excellent reputation for accuracy. You are indeed fortunate to own one.
 
Thanks

Swapped a PA red dot for the scope today, and I can shoot the red dot better.

Imagine that.:eek:

when you find the bullet it likes, you will be hard to beat.

same with any 22lr pistol. they are all picky about the ammo they digest. some shoot lights-out with the cheapest ammo out there, some need the expensive stuff to shoot the best.

good luck and happy shooting. i love my model 41.

Mine eats most anything, BUT: I have found that the CCI standard velocity is the ONLY one that is absolutely 100% reliable AND very, very accurate.
 
I was fortunate enough to play with a friends extensive collection of firearms last trip home to AR. Everything from Nighthawk Customs to REPR with suppressor. The one I couldn't put down was the 41. He laughed because he was expecting to spend a LOT more on ammo. The trigger is superb, and it is just a beautiful pistol to these eyes. It's on my must have soon list.
