Details
Ruger's rugged SP101 is chambered in 38 Special which makes for an excellent snubnose revolver. Ruger's SP101 is not only an excellent carry gun with its compact 2.25" long barrel, but it is also manufactured with the durability needed for heavy shooting volume.
The SP101 has a smooth, easy to control trigger with a manageable recoil due to its heavier duty frame construction. The front sight is easy to pick up in the wide rear notch making aiming on the draw easy on this Double Action Only revolver.

Customer Reviews
- Excellent gun - Review by Ridge Runner

Have had one for years. It is very manageable to shoot (compared to smaller snubs), accurate for a snub, and durable. I shoot hot .38s rather than .357s since I like hotter .357 loads in my larger GP-100 revolvers. Hot .357s can be a handful in this gun. Also very easy to carry and conceal. Excellent value.

A: Hello Mary,
The Ruger SP-101 in .38 Special is a great firearm. It would be good for target shooting at the range, or defense. Ammunition is readily available as well as .38 Special is a very common caliber. Revolvers are fairly easy to clean as well and don't require disassembly like a semi-auto. It is an easy to control firearm as well. I would suggest seeing how it feels in your hands to see what you think.
