CC or OC big bores?
« on: December 28, 2010, 12:07:17 PM »
Does anyone out there carry a .41 Mag for their CC or OC?  Are there any factory rounds for self defense or are most of them for hunting?  Im looking for another handgun and I don't have any big bores.  Im debating on a Taurus .41 Mag Tracker or a .44 Mag Tracker.  I don't want a .44 Mag, but .44 Special has always sounded cool.

Thanks

Recent Handgunner magazine discusses the bigbores. Might be where your ? originates. My takeaway is that the cylinder is the major limiting factor, in that it is pretty bulky. If you are thinking winter time, why not.  Holsters might be a bit tough to come by these days as wheel guns in general are less common and i would think the biggens even more so.

Not a 41 but my everyday companion is a 4" N frame chambered for the 45 ACP.  For years it has ridden in a Bianchi 5BH or Safariland holster.  For a while I have used a pancake from Simply Rugged and been very content.  Some of us just prefer revolvers.
