GP100 question...?????

[jmbbarr]

Does anyone know how the GP100 got its name??? What does the "GP" stand for and where did the "100" come from???

Just a thought.......

General Purpose 100 , 1st in the series as the next is Small Pistol 101.

So with that mind set why did not Ruger call the LCR LCR102, I assume LCR stands for Light Carry Revolver
