Something I picked up!

[Amishman44]

RUGER GP100 Fixed-Sight 4" Revolver in .357 mag.

I picked this up about 4 months ago from a pawnshop in Mississippi, through another website. It only had 'burn marks' around 2 of the 6 cylinder holes...and no 'scratch ring' around the cylinder. I installed the XS Tritium Front Night Sight and everything else is factory. It cruises around in a black Bianchi Ranger, 3-Slot, RH Holster.

With the new front night sight, it's 'dead on' accurate at 12 yards (indoors)...grouping is just under 4" using a 2-hand grip, on a rest, with 158 grain FMJ, shooting SA. I'm pretty happy with this one! I'm guessing this one will stay in my 'keepers' box for a long, long time!

I hate you. :-)

I sold my 4" blued adjustable sight GP100 late last summer.

I think that I regret that. heh.

congrats!

Very nice!!!!! Congrats!

Nice looking revolver there!

I consider you well armed when carrying it.

 

[DustyDawg48]

Very nice! I've been interested in a wheel gun for the longest time but haven't yet taken the plunge. I've had my eye out for one just like that; I'd eventually like to shoot some revolver in IDPA or something similar. Thanks for the pics and the report!

Those GP100's and SP101's are built like a tank and shoot well! Nice gun!

 

[anthony010]

very nice

 

[Bluedragon]

Nice gun.. very enjoyable to shoot especially when loaded with 38 Special.

 

[Mr.Lubie]

That is a sexy gun

 

[willie69]

Nice gun.. very enjoyable to shoot especially when loaded with 38 Special.

They're honey pies with .38's....

Those 4" GP100s REALLY shine when loaded up with some 158gr .357 magnums. VERY very fun.

I have just over four-hundred $$ in it...plus some of the extras! I couldn't pass on the deal! I'd had an adjustable-sight version for several years, which had the larger-sized factory grip on it and I have small hands so this 'compact-sized' grip is much more comfortable for me! I think I grip it a little bit higher up, which drops the center-bore lower in my hand, helping to my hand to absorb recoil better.

I just sold my LCR in .38P+ a week ago...and just found some more .38's in another ammo box last night...so I will be shooting plenty of .38's through it...as will I in his little brother, the SP101! The SP101 is a little more comfortable when shooting .38's!

I'll pass this one on to one of my boys some day...as I will the SP101 to the other son!

I love mine ...Awsome guns

 

[Disposable Heart]

Man, those older grips are the ****! The new factory Hogues on the new guns are blech. Ergonomic my butt, there is also looks to consider!

 

[Sylvain]

Sweet gun.
Will that be a carry piece?
Im curious to know how many people carry revolvers.

 

[The Beaver]

I love my 4" GP. Especially after you put a few hundred rounds through it; the trigger is much nicer.

I plan on carrying my GP100 when I get my LTCH but probably only during the cold months. It would be a pain to CC with it in the summer.

 

[2cool9031]

Great looking pistol...I hope you got a good deal!

 

[Ricnzak]

That is one of those designs that the style is timeless. It will always be a working form of art. I have some Smith 357's right now and love the round. When I start branching into the Rugers the GP and the Blackhawk will be my first two. Congrats and enjoy.

 

[DeadeyeChrista'sdad]

You DO enjoy those wheel guns, don't you? Plus that whole not hearing the voices like you do with any hi capacity autoloader thing ...... .....

 

[DFM914]

Very sweet gun!
