www.gunbroker.com/item/1036725068 Mine on gunbroker. I will be listing a few revolvers and a rifle or two over the next few days. Feel free to offer feedback or ask questions through gunbroker or here. I am new to this, I have always been more on the collecting side of things, so please don’t hesitate to offer feedback or suggestions as well. Happy to send videos detailing item descriptions, may be a better way to show item condition than trying to capture good lighting on polished blue steel.

I would like to ask if anyone can post a working link. Searching for 4 inch 41's brings up a lot of options.

Trey is right. Lots of 41 options. The one I mentioned is also a 4”, with the mahogany box…but not this one.

Great pictures, excellent detail, lovely gun! So sad that I just bought a new 57 a couple of weeks ago (frickin' emoji frowny face).

That’s unfortunate if true, it’s the one it came in when I bought it but it also was advertised as unfired and I’m sure that wasn’t true either. Since the serial number wasn’t on the box anyways I didnt label it as the original box. I’m on the road and don’t have my book, so I had to get the kindle copy to see what’s what. Best I can figure: Looks like a ‘79-80 year gun as far as when it was stamped, they went with that new box in I think 83 it said. So it may be the box it shipped in if it didn’t ship on the sn date as sw was inclined to do. There is no end label on the box though. I could find out by getting the letter I suppose but I’ll leave that to the buyer most likely, I doubt it would arrive in time to matter…

No need to apologize at all!! I agree 100 percent and I appreciate you pointing it out. I don’t think I can adjust verbiage but I’ll point out the overlap to prospective buyers. If I realized the issue on the box I would have left it out of the title and just included pics. I try to be as transparent as I can on listing things, I have been bitten a few times, by not knowing things, and I don’t want to pay that forward! I will shortly be listing a great example of this. I wanted a pre 29 forever, finally saved enough money and started watching gunbroker. Found a lightly used beautiful example that came without the grips, but was otherwise listed as all original. i figured i would eventually buy correct grips for it and planned to use it a bit in the field so wasn’t looking for mint anyways. I bid aggressively. Won it. Received it, shot it, and then later realized the cylinder was not numbered to the gun. Went back, no wonder they didn’t post pics of the recessed side of the cylinder. Oh well… an educated or discerning buyer would never have fallen for that. It was on me not to ask, but it also was not great for the seller to say all original if they didn’t know for sure or unknowingly misrepresented it. When I list it i will point out the cylinder issue rather than letting a buyer get bitten because I would have wanted to know.
