The 41 Magnum was meant to fill that "caliber gap"-whatever that is. I am aficionado, treasure mine, though it probably doesn't really do anything the 44 Special/Magnum doesn't. It was introduced at a time when the large frame revolver had gone out of fashion, I suspect that for every N-frame S&W produces at least 5 k-frames.
