I'm tempted by a LGS's 4" .38 special blued GP 100. Ruger took advantage of a GP 100's top strap height surrounding the usual adjustable sight to give this .38 the best sight picture I've ever seen on a fixed sight revolver. It also was very well polished under its bluing. It does not have a MIM trigger, it has original style GP grips that may be a litter smaller than most GP's [?], and pins keep its extractor from rotating. I have not seen this variation in person before. Were these surplused inexpensively in sizeable quantities or are they uncommon? This one conservatively is at least 95% condition. It has zero muzzle and high edge wear so cleaning out some leading may reveal a 98% condition revolver. Does $390 O.T.D. sound about right?
I'm procrastinating mostly because I couldn't decide whether to bring the .38 home or a .45 convertible BH. The BH is identical to current production so at worst I could always buy one later although probably not at as low a price. I may wind up with both if they sit on the shelf long enough but short term budget restraints force me to choose.
