I have been looking at the possibility of of buying a revolver for no other reason but to open up a couple other completion opportunities. I have been doing a lot of research and consensus was S & W and Ruger GP100 are the best quality for the money, and quite comparable. Some other cheaper options are out there; Armenius and Alpha Proj to name the two most common ones. .357 is desirable but shooting .38 SWC or HBWC will be the loads of choice as I will only be shooting paper.
I took the plunge. Ordered a brand new Ruger GP100 4.2" barrel, blued with rubber grip. It was a counter gun from a gun store, so it does have a bit of a drag mark on the cylinder (it would have one the first week I owned it regardless). They list for just around $950-1000 up here; I got this one for $600.00.
I'm excited. I thinking Safariland Speed Loaders? Thoughts?
