Smith & Wesson Model 57-6 .41 Magnum 6" Barrel Revolver
Description: In the early 1960s, Elmer Keith, Bill Jordan, and Skeeter Skelton, all noted firearms authorities and authors, lobbied Remington Arms and Smith & Wesson to introduce a new .41 caliber police cartridge with the objective of filling a perceived ballistic performance gap between the .357 and .44 Magnums, thus creating a chambering which they believed would be the ultimate for law enforcement purposes. In April 1964 Remington responded by introducing the .41 Magnum cartridge, and in concert, Smith & Wesson launched the Model 57 revolver chambered for the new ammunition. Elmer Keith originally proposed the name ".41 Police" for the new cartridge, but Remington instead chose .41 Magnum, hoping to capitalize on the notoriety and popularity of its earlier Magnum offerings. .41 Remington Magnum Price: $959.99 Chambers: Double Action 6 Shot Revolver Metal Condition: Excellent Condition Wood Condition: Excellent Checkered Custom Grips Bore Condition: Excellent Barrels: 6" Deep Blued Barrel Triggers: Smith & Wesson Factory Trigger Weight: 3 lbs.
