Ruger SP-101


Ruger has found a solid following for this gun, and while this is the .357 version - has made it for .22lr and also 9mm, tho that has ceased production. Although there is a 3" barrel option this does for me make the ideal carry snub configuration.

It is for sure hardly the lightest snub but is very strong and so well able to handle a diet of hot loads - added to which being stainless is very tolerant of summer sweat! The Crimson Trace grips make it more versatile in my opinion. The trigger is not up to ''Smith'' standards, particularly when new but most people find with use, including plenty of dry firing, that it smooths quite well.
