My introduction to the 41 got off to a rocky start. I bought a S&W M57 from a member here. A fine gun great guy to deal with and at a fair price. Well Michigan is one of the few states where you have to register handguns. Shortly after I bought the gun I got a call from the local sheriff. Seems the gun was stolen in Washington state back in 1986!! Needless to say I had to surrender the gun and was out the $1000 purchase price.
I replaced it with another one and now have two M57's both 4 inch, a nickel and a blue version. There fun guns to shoot and as I have a 4 inch M29 as well I can say all things considered I favor the 41 over the 44.
Ouch, man, that sucks.
I didn't know you had to register handguns in Michigan. That sucks too.
