    Ordered my last gun.

    I started sorting brass for my range in my spare time. The brass we sell to reloaders benefits some of the shooting programs. I keep a portion of the brass for my own reloading, and sell a portion plus all the scrap to a recycling business. It only takes a couple of hours per week but the money...

    New .454 Bisley Quality Control

    If you want a custom shop that produces guns "done right every time", expect to pay at least 2x what you are paying now. Or if you are impatient, you can buy something from Freedom Arms now. I wouldn't classify those imperfections as hideous but I expect Ruger will repair it to your satisfaction.

    Enjoying my SP101

    My Hogue rubber grip arrived today and I installed it. It's more sticky and a little larger than the original, which is probably less desirable for concealed carry. But what I like about it is that it changes my grip angle so that I don't have to cock my wrist forward as much to line up the...

    Enjoying my SP101

    I wanted to add that I swapped out my front sight for a fiber optic one from Gemini Custom. Much easier to see.

    4" vs 6" GP100

    I had both a 4" and 6" GP100. I now have just the 4". The 6" was not as well balanced.

    Enjoying my SP101

    I've had an SP101 (2.25") for about a year now. When I carry it, it's in a beautiful Bobby Mac holster - the HC model. I cannot say enough good things about the quality of his work btw. Lately I've been shooting it more often just for practice and it really is a fine revolver. When I bought it...

    WHO ELSE DOESN'T LIKE THE SP101 FRONT FIBER OPTIC SIGHTS ?

    I have a Gemini front sight on my SP101 and Hi-Viz on my GP100's. The Gemini is much more rugged than the Hi-Viz. The SP101 is my carry gun and I don't have any problems with the sight and using a holster.

    Holster suggestions for SP101

    I ordered a Bobby Mac HC holster for my SP101. Can't give you any feedback as it hasn't arrived yet but I've only read great things about his holsters.

    New SP 101-357

    The front sight is much easier to see (for me) in lower light conditions. You can buy the sight pre-drilled or not drilled. I bought the former. Installation is straightforward - this video explains the process: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVtn9qzPWZ0

    New SP 101-357

    I also put an Gemini fiber optic sight on my SP101, except green. I stayed with the stock grips. I have the Wolff spring kit but haven't installed it yet.

    New SP 101-357

    Congratulations on the new acquisition. After being a long-time GP100 owner, I picked up a 2-1/4" SP101 a few weeks ago. I've been very impressed with it. I'm waiting for my Bobby Mac holster so I can keep it with me all the time :)

    What is your favorite holster for the SP101 2-1/4"

    I bought a Bobby Mac HC holster. Should arrive in a couple of weeks.

    Impressed with my new SP101

    Thanks. I almost ordered the Simply Rugged Silver Dollar Pancake holster but opted for the Bobby Mac HC. I had a hard time deciding between the 3" and 2.25" but opted for the latter because it seemed a hair more concealable. But I have multiple GP100s so my SP101 may breed as well :)

    Impressed with my new SP101

    I finally got to test drive my new 2.25" SP101 today. I was very impressed. I wasn't sure what to expect, especially having been spoiled by my GP100's. I put about 75 rounds through it at 7 yards, a combination of factory ammo and my cowboy loads. I did not shoot any +P or .357. I mostly shot...

    Added an SP101 to the family

    I bought the .357 model. I'll try shooting .357 to see how they feel but I expect I'll stick with .38 and +P most of the time. I'm unsure about the grip. I'll give it a little time before I decide if a swap-out is in order. Haven't tried Trausch grips but I read good things about them.
