Is this seller a member here?

This is kind of a sad sale on gunbroker of a .41mag BBSC, and a Ruger NMBH. Lots of extra stuff goes with it - leather, ammo, etc. The guy just bought them and has to unload them because of his age and physical condition. It's a good deal for someone who's looking for a couple .41's.

That is sad, a very good deal, even with shipping and FFL fees if the bidding doesnt go too high.

You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.

with me having to come to grips with age and other physical considerations that no longer allow me withstand firing magnum rounds in a revolver, I can will understand the reason behind this sale .... I hope it works out well for him

If it was me, i would download the 41 rounds, but I'm sure he doesn't reload, probably doesn't know anyone who does.

That is very sad but I understand. My hands can't take the punishment very much either since I am much older but I keep try to abuse them and take two Tylenols and drive on. I imagine that someday, possibly soon, I'll be trying to unload some of mine.

If I didn't already have essentially the same package, I'd be bidding on this. So far I don't have any issues such as he does (I'll be 76 in Nov), and hope I never do.

I’m in the same boat as you, in fact I sold my 41 and 44 mag S&W’s about a year ago. I really enjoy shooting 38 specials from my 357 revolvers, easy peasy.

Getting old sucks and I’m not even all that old (yet) :D

I shoot rimfire, pellets and BB’s because I can’t take the big boomers anymore.

again, all too well understood .... until recently I had absolutely no thoughts of buying another revolver .... that is changing .... I can't help but look at a 357 GP100 .... our other family GP's have 6" barrels .... I'm leaning toward a 4" .... my intention would be to load 38 spl level ammo in 357 cases ... if I didn't have 1,000+ very light loads for our 44 Mag Redhawk, I'd have a much stronger desire to order a GP
