Here is a Covina marked 41 AMP.  It is hard to see.  Max Gera put the scope rings on it.

I asked Jurras why they were marked 41 AMP and he said it was a factory mistake.  Others say Harry Sanford did it on purpose because Jurras stuck him with 65 each - 41 JMP Custom 100 barrels that Jurras never paid for because they did not sell.

There already is a 41 Auto Mag Pistol caliber which tops the 10mm Mag. 

I doubt that the any Auto Mags will ever be built with a different sized case head than the 45 ACP/308/30.06 that is used now.

That is an exceptionally nice variant with the 8" bull and vented rib.  I'm always amazed at the different versions of Automags made.  I remember the Gun Digest articles from the 70s which showed a number of the unique configurations.  I didn't realize there were so many more until seeing the ones you and Tony are highlighting here. 

Got the email from Patrick that my new one is now on its way.  Can't wait.

That one is rarer than rare, it's the only one Lee Jurras made.  The serial number is "JURRAS".

Here is a group of AMP's all made by Patrick's new company.

"JURRAS" wouldn't actually be a legal Serial Number, per ATF.  They put out a letter on it awhile back stating that at least one digit must be a numeral.
