SP 101-.357 Mag 125 gr only-How many made?

[MagnumM56]

Before Ruger extended the frame on the SP to accommodate the .357-in 158 gr. or any .357-how many of these 125 gr versions with the short frame were produced-I remember the Ads from ca. 1990 and actually owned one of these puppies-wouldn't mind owning one again-but oh well!

RENE estimate is approximately 3000 made.

This one belonged to Ruger Southport director of operations Stan Terhune:

The last one I saw was years ago, before I knew what it was. Now, been looking for sometime and can't find one.....

So does that mean it will only shoot wad cutters?

I guess they hurt too! :shock:

Thanks.

They were so inexpensive when they came out-picked the puppy up for 289.00-nobody wanted this st the time and look at it now-amazing!

I presume that Stan Terhune is the self same Terhune of "Terhune Anticcorro" stanless ?
