S&W 41 up Grade

Thinking about a Clark Custom Barrel any other ideas

They are very good barrels with tight tolerances.
I gained about 15-20 points when I got mine.(I know you cannot buy points, but sometimes you can depending on what you had and what you have now).
Food for thought.

The two Clark barrels that I have seen and group tested have shot considerably better than the stock "newer" S&W barrels. We were getting 1 1/4 to 1 1/2" groups sandbaged at 50yds with red dot scope compared to 3-4" groups with the occasional wicked flyer from the stock barrels. The only thing I personally didn't like about the Clark barrel was the weight. They are lighter than the 5.5" Smith and I like the feel of the heavier gun. A cheaper way to improve accuracy of your 41 and another option is to have your Smith barrel relined with a Lothar Walther liner. I friend had one done by David Sams and it was supposed to be getting something like 3/4" groups at 50yds with CCI SV paper pack.

I have a 41 with a Clark, I had one with a Bully.

I think you will like either. They reduce the probability of a cross bolt jam to nearly zero, provide a better balance and in my opinion outshoot the original S&W barrel even using CCI SV.

Alex Hamilton of www.tenring.com has been relining S&W model 41 barrels for decades. He does exceptional work. I would have that done instead of a Clark barrel, if I were in your shoes.

Clark Custom Barrel has been ordered I got the 6.5" STC Barrel. I spoke with Alex Hamilton he is at least four months behind he put me on the call list for when he gets room for more pistols in his shop.

Why do you think you need a new barrel? Have you found something wrong with the original?
