Ruger GP100 357 Mag 3" 6rd Stainless Revolver

The GP100 is the revolver Ruger built to take a lifetime of full power 357 Magnum, and the 3" barrel version is the one many people pick for carry and the nightstand. Barrel, cylinder and frame are satin stainless steel. The triple locking cylinder locks into the frame at the front, rear and bottom, which keeps it aligned and tight shot after shot, and the transfer bar mechanism guards against an accidental discharge. It fires 38 Special too, so you can practice with lighter loads.

A Hogue Monogrip in cushioned black rubber soaks up recoil, and the patented grip frame takes a wide range of custom grips if you want to change it. The trigger works double action or single action from the exposed hammer. Sights are a ramp front and an integral notch rear. Takedown into the integrated subassemblies needs no special tools, which makes cleaning simple. The barrel has five grooves and a 1:18.75" twist. It weighs 36 oz and measures 8.5" overall, heavy enough to tame magnum recoil and short enough to holster comfortably. It comes in a hard plastic case. A plain, strong six shot that will outlast its owner.
