I'd go with the smith & wesson revolver......as ya state it's local and available . IMHO a much better rig that any ruger auto short of their Mk II rimfire series which are awesome as are rugers wheel guns. I don't care for their other autos.

I'll ask why the 41 mag ? Have you considered a 44 or 357 Mag so that lower powered "specials" can be used for carry or plinking ? Versitility with the .44 mag would seem to be a better choice. Carry 44 specials for self defense & hunt and or compete on steel chickens with 44 magnums......

just my opinion......

Was looking at some of the new big bore revolvers, came to the conclusion that I am just too short and skinny for one.
I have rather small hands, so finding something for myself would be difficult at best.

S,
The model 457 is a .45 semi:

Now, someday...some distant day, when I have more money to spend on big boy toys, I'll take a S&W 686, ported, with the 6" barrel.

Not that I need to compensate for anything, mind you...
