Smith Wesson 41 Disassembly & Reassembly instructions WANTED

I am looking for detailed instructions / pictures for complete disassembly and reassembly of a Smith & Wesson model 41, 22 target pistol. Not just field stripping but complete instructions for a rebuild. Thanks in advance.....

it is a sticky over at RimfireCentral in the S&W M41 forum.  Let me know if you are unable to find it.

Thanks anyway. That was the one I had before but now it still says "no content". Thanks

Thanks again. I have seen this one before also, I am looking for information about stripping it down to a bare frame and starting to reassemble with new sear, springs, hammer and sear pin, etc. I would like some detailed information before I start.. Thanks again

So sorry for that, it used to be there.  Luckily I printed it out.   I'll look later to see where it might still exist on the web.

I  didn't print it either, I just saved the link and now it is gone.....Thanks again

I spent a half hour looking across the web.  Sorry, I can't find it.   Have you thought about doing a google search with the link address and seeing if there is a stored version from Google.    My print out is at least 60 pages, or I would scan it for you.

Thanks, good idea I will try that....

What would it cost to have it scanned?  Staples even has a self service scanner with a feeder.  I'd throw a few $ your way to have it done.  I had my '67 Camaro 200 page manual done a few years back but I don't remember the cost.  It's nice because I can zoom in on diagrams.

Every page is a PDF and it even scanned the words so they are searchable.

Dave, I am loath to post up something that was created by someone else without their permission.   There must be a reason this was taken down from the web - and perhaps that was the creator's choice.

It was posted on the Google+ consumer platform.  The Google+ personal version was discontinued** and content owners needed to back up their work or lose it.  Chances are the creator didn't even know he lost it until it was too late.  I'd put odds the original author would be ecstatic that it was saved.
