There is a Ruger 41 mag at the Double Eagle Pawn in Deer Park. I offered the guy $200 for it and he laughed at me. He has to hold it for a month by law. It's a nice one too.
I'd stick with a 44 mag Blackhawk. I just bought a used, New Model Super Blackhawk stainless for $400 at a gun shop sale. It's flawless. It was 20% off from $500.

am looking for a used 41 mag or a used 44 mag. is there any big difference between them? cost, ammo, wt, recoil, availability, etc. thanks, mike w
.44mag will probly be easier to find. Lots of load options too so you can "tune" recoil to what your comfortable with.

If you are buying a newer gun, look into a Smith and Wesson model 69. It is a sweet little pistol. 44 mag based on the L frame (same size as a 686 etc.) that is a 5-shot vs. a 6 shot.

41 mag has a prestige about it that just makes them cool.
If you reload the 41 would be fun to have but if you're looking at store bought ammo the 44 is the clear winner. That being said, I'm a 44 special guy that reloads so my Black Hawk sits in between the two as far as what I can get out of it.

X2!! I've handled one of these a few times and really liked it. I haven't bought one yet but it's certainly at the top of my must have revolvers list.
