Description:
The Ruger GP100 revolver was introduced in 1985 as Ruger’s successor to the famous Security-/Service-/Speed-Six series of double action revolvers. Its design featured a reinforced Security Six frame and longer cylinder than most competitors, allowing hand loaders to use hot loaded .357 Magnum rounds. Loaders could either use a heavier powder charge or heavier, and therefore longer, bullet without compromising the powder load or bullet weight, or combination thereof. Another characteristic of the GP100’s design that allowed for stronger loads was a latch located in the crane to firmly lock the cylinder at front along with the lock at the rear, a feature used successfully on the earlier Ruger Redhawk (1979), which had itself taken the design concept from the Smith & Wesson Triple-Lock design discontinued all the way back in 1915. The Ruger GP100 has since become popular among hunters and trappers as a deer hunting/bear defense gun alongside the Redhawk and Super Redhawk. Because of the thickness of the frame and latch, the GP100 is widely considered to be one of the strongest medium frame revolvers ever made.
This GP100 is chambered for the .44 S&W Special. Other models have been produced chambered for cartridges such as the .22LR, 327 Federal Magnum, and .357 Remington Magnum. It has a 3-inch barrel while the sights consist of a green fiber optic front sight and a fully-adjustable rear sight. The grips are Hogue rubber which cover the grip frame all the way around, rather than leaving the backstrap exposed. This significantly reduces felt recoil. The author owns a similar GP100 and can attest to the excellent recoil characteristics that these grips provide. The revolver is comfortable to shoot even with heavy loads. The finish is a satin stainless. The GP100 is used but is in extremely good condition with virtually no rust or pitting, while few if any scratches. It comes with the original box and an HKS CA-44 speed loader. If you are looking for a powerful, but easy to shoot revolver, the GP100 in .44 Special is an excellent choice.
