And damn it, I wish you had NOT asked about the .41 Long Colt...

I've always had a fascination with that cartridge, and I have no clue why.

Colt chambered Official Police revolvers for them in the late 1920s...

And I need to start looking for one AGAIN. Last one I found was in very sad shape (yet the owner thought he had a lump of diamond studded gold).

Damn it, Jim...
