Our Assessment: The Ruger SP101 revolver manufactured by Sturm, Ruger & Co. It was first introduced in 1989 as the smaller-frame counterpart to the GP100. This SP101 is a small frame, double-action revolver designed for concealed carry and personal defense. The SP101 is chambered in various calibers, including .22 LR, .327 Federal Magnum, .38 Special, and .357 Magnum. The SP101 typically has a barrel length of 2.25 inches, although longer barrel options are available. It uses a swing-out cylinder design, allowing for easy loading and unloading of cartridges. The SP101 features a robust stainless steel frame, providing durability and resistance to corrosion. The frame design incorporates a solid sidewall construction, enhancing strength and reducing recoil.This example was manufactured in 2004 and is in Fine Plus condition, showing light use. This 6 Shot SP101 model 05759 is chambered for .32 H&R Magnum and comes with a letter from Ruger. The SP101 is Ruger's small-frame revolver and was their only competition with the similar offerings of Smith & Wesson and Colt until the introduction of the LCR. The SP101 has an all-steel frame and tends to have a slightly longer grip, making shooting such a compact revolver quite comfortable. This SP101 has a great bore, very strong mechanics, and a beautifully preserved stainless finish. This well made and well maintained Ruger revolver will make a fantastic back up gun. Please see our photos, good luck and happy bidding.
