Wow - that looks awesome! I was just watching a review of one of those the other day by "nutnfancy" on YouTube. I had my mind set on the S&W 642, but I think the SP101 gets my vote now - especially after seeing yours!! Very nice.

Do you feel that SP101 is too heavy to carry? The previously mentioned reviewer did, but then again, he prefers "mobility vs. firepower" as a general philosophy.

That's great Carl!

If you ever want to sell it, I am claiming first dibbs!

Only part I don't understand is:
Chamfer Cylinder Throats and Moonclips
When did .38/.357 need moonclips?

Beautiful pistol!

I am about to ask you to make another holster that will fit this one. Going to wait a little bit to see if I can bring myself to shoot it. The only difference I find is the 642 is easier for pocket carry, but the SP101 is sure sweet shooting.

Hey Alan. No big deal on the moonclips other than that was my choice. I like using moon clips better than speedloaders.

That is AWESOME!
I am a BIG fan of the Ruger revolvers, just love the feel and balance. And those grips are PURTY!

Thats one good looking gun there.Think my next
carry gun may be a revolver.

Very nice Carlson1

Making me add another to my WTB list.

That's sharp!! I like!

Beautiful, my poor SP 101 is jealous, bet yours doesn't rattle anymore either.

Purty.

oh, very nice.....

Carl,

That IS the prettiest revolver I've ever seen!! Congrats! If you don't mind me asking, how much $$ does a special job like that add to the cost of the basic SP101?

Joe

Very nice. I love the sp101. The only thing I don't like are the ugly stock rubber grips. You took care of that problem, and all the other stuff you did is pretty neat too!

Nice pistola. I really like mine (target gray finish-don't see many of them) but sure not as nice looking as yours.

karder,

I bought a set of Hogue rubber grips for my Ruger SP101 for $15.00 on line.

It was a snap to change them out and now the pistol not only looks good, it's far easier to shoot as the grips are significantly larger giving me greater control.
