I bought one and love it. Shoots and chambers 22 Short, 22 Long and 22 LR. Even shotshells of 22 caliber shoot fine. I installed a full Hogue rubber grip with recoil attributes by design. It matches my Hogue X-frame rubber grips well.
Sent my GP100 22 LR to Tyler Gun Works for carry melting and beveled the front of 10 round cylinder. Accuracy job and action job with reliability. They hand engraved it for me too. Very reasonable price too. Installed a stainless steel lanyard from Bowen Classic Arms by replacing the screw that holds the Hogue grip on with the screw in lanyard ring. Leather boot lace braided a lanyard on the ring. Love it!!!
I'm a very happy repeat customer of KYGUNS and always frequent their site (seem to have the competition beat most of the time and that's saying something giving the tremendous perhaps unprecedented myriad of firearms vendors of which I truly appreciate and do no take for granted *[fight 24/7/365 for 2A Gun Rights]*). I love all-things Ruger and really like the GP100 full-lug frame perhaps more than the S&W 5-666 line (their 167 22lr is a real-gem). So yeah, I too would prefer the full-barrel underlug to be sure. Now, while I am wishing for stuff, how about Colt rev-up the old 'Snake Gun' assembly line and pump out some true Revolvers...
Great review. Glad he mentioned how some 22 revolvers can have extraction/ejection issues. This one obviously doesn't. And I agree with the man...I prefer the looks of a full under-lug. The only question I am left with is, are the front sights easily replaceable, just like the 357 GP-100? I'm not crazy about the idea of a plastic fiber optic front sight.
with the quality issues plaguing S&W revolvers these days, the GP100 22LR is the go-to large 22LR revolver. read the reviews of the S&W 617 and you'll see the many people getting revolvers with machining marks, polish defects, spitting lead, you name it. S&W will stand behind its products from a mechanical standpoint, but when it comes to finish they say "tough". someone even posted the return letter from S&W that came in the box with the gun saying that "the polish imperfections on your 617 fall within S&W's quality standards". LMFAO. my advice - go with the Ruger. S&W is on a downward spiral
Love mine. Snatched it up as soon as they came in stock at my local gun shop in early 2016. I agree, the full under lug looks cooler, but, it is far more balanced than the 617. Sights are better and finish is nicer in my opinion. Not mention it's about $150 less than the Smith. One of my favorite plinkers and I carry it around the family property for snakes.
If any guys are budget minded, check out the 22s at Charter Arms. They have pretty good prices on their revolvers. All I’ve seen on their site is revolvers, but I could have over looked an odd pistol along the way. As far as revolvers go, I prefer the Ruger SP101. Little more smaller and 2 rounds short, but, lighter and just fits me better.
He must not be very accurate shooter if he was embarrassed to show target & at what yardage would of been nice too ! I Know some people are better shooters then others but heck thats one reason we watch these reviews FYI ! I am looking to purchasing a 22LR Revolver , be it Ruger or S&W , just getting all the info I can before I spend the money on one .
Unless the purpose of this video was to admire your holding style, it simply makes no sense. Was the gun accurate? Didn't that question ever enter your mind? No one really cares about your stance or holding style but I am sure that 90+ % of those watching would be interested in the relative accuracy of the gun you were reviewing.
In other words, How did the groups hold together? We are accuracy bingers. Of course we know there was no kick. Does Ruger make a .22 Mag revolver too? Nice capacity of 10 rounds, and i like the full size grips too. Adjustable sights. The fact that youll never wear it out is priceless Ruger makes some Very solid revolvers, as they have never let me down on larger calibers. Ill swear by that , even on revolvers made all the way back in the early 70s. I am sold on Ruger brand.
Accuracy and groups are very subjective. It goes bang without malfunctioning or missfires. One guns grouping is not indicative of all others and is ammo sensetive. Rugers reputation in these revolvers is very good.
@@awesomexistence I own numerous Ruger firearms. Some of the GP100 .22 revolvers had cylinder timing issues, which is mentioned on several forums, including the Ruger forum. In the video I see what I believe is bullet shaving on two or three chambers. I wanted to see the target for accuracy and more importantly possible keyholing.
Hope the GP has a better finish than the Smith 617. So far, I've looked at 3 examples of the 617 hoping to buy one but the finish on each was horrible. I would not even consider buying one and now consider the 617 a POS !
The finish on my 617 is excellent. The gun was spitting lead at first, sent it back and it's perfect now. I have had Ruger problems too. My Ruger 300 BLK Ranch Rifle was shipped without an extractor installed. They sent me one and I put it in myself. My 2020 Python was said to be a rough and unreliable gun; it has been PERFECT in appearance, function and accuracy since day one.
When I see this all I can think is WTF! Years ago ruger came out with a sp101 in 22lr 8rnd 4.2" barrel. How much bigger of a 22 do you need? When I wrote to ruger asking them to make a LCRX 3" 22lr (a much more useful platform in my opinion) they replied that they have no intention of making that. This makes no sense to me but what do I know?
+tallesta I think they just could no longer resist moving into direct competition with S&W on their 617. And the half lug version of the 617 is very rare and very sought after. I suspect Ruger will be handsomely rewarded for their GP100 22LR revolver.
+tallesta Not being a competition shooter I can only guess, but yes I would think this would be one that competition shooters currently using something like the 617 would take a look and probably try if they have liked other Rugers in the past. I do agree it is awfully big but the S&W model 17 and 617 are about the same and highly sought after. And, danged fun to shoot. I have never had a 22 semi auto so I can't compare with any of those. My main stopping point is the cost. A lot less than a new 617 but still not an easy gun to lay out cash for, for me at least. As for a field gun. Well, I would agree someone used to a smaller pack gun would not jump for it but someone who likes carrying a gun on their side would likely love it. Looks like a big caliber and shoots like a 22.
Fine video & GREAT REVOLVER! Why was there some barrel/cylinder gap FLASH on some rounds but not all rounds? I’d guess it was the slightly “hotter” loading of some of the .22lr rounds. Please educate me! “Gesundheit”!
I think the revolver has cylinder timing issues on two, maybe three chambers. And I wonder if he was getting keyholes on the target, which we never saw.

The S&W used to be my favorite. However since S&W went to that ugly ass key lock and hole in the side of the frame, my choice would be the Ruger. In fact S&W has lost 7 sales to just me alone on those damn key locks. Great video!
S&W is still in Massachusetts, but they are moving to Tennessee, the keyhole may be a Mass gun control law,I don't know,but even if they move most of their operations to Tennessee, I think the revolver manufacturing is supposed to remain in Mass.,if so and if it is a Mass.law,you may have to live with the keyhole if you really want a S&W revolver or find a used older revolver on the used market at a pawn shop or gun show.
I have this gun...bought it new and it would not eject without banging it on a table. Sent it back to get fixed....its better but still bruises my palm when I eject the spent shells. It is impossible to do with a finger like you did in your video. Is my gun typical or a lemon??
Sampsoneh Like I said. Lubritace and work the ejector a lot. A few hundred cycles should fix it. Just like the trigger pull gets better the ejector does the same. I already see improvement on my air/blank revolver that had the same issue you are mentioning.
I'm responding to an old post in case someone new reads this. I own quite a few Ruger firearms, but Ruger isn't perfect. The ejector rod on your revolver should not require that much effort. Does it operate freely with no ammo, with unfired ammo? If it only sticks with spent casings the chambers in the cylinder might be a little too tight. If you have to push fresh ammo into the chambers, they're too tight.
but you missed every shot in fact you missed the entire poster entirely, were you just showing off the sound it makes? or how fun it is to load? because if that was what you were going for then yes pretty sweet video, so we got a good look at what the gun looks and sounds at the range, call me crazy or revolutionary do the same video but include what you actually hit, I'm not going to take credit for that idea as anyone who posts videos here on TH-cam about shooting at a range show what they actually hit, but you can do a mini series if you have the budget LOL
You mean lead build up in and around the forcing cone? My single six leads up badly too. Try to shoot 22lr with larger diameter bullets. Most CCI and federal and other bulk stuff is around .2235 and .2225, which will cause leading in a revolver, since chambers are oversize and the flame and gas just melts lead from around the smaller diameter bullet and deposits it in the forcing cone. I exclusively use 22lr ammo made by RWS (German manufacturer). They have a slightly flat nose, can be very greasy but bullet size is consistent at .224 and this will avoid leading. Pretty much all Gecko and Norma brand 22lr is made by RWS. Also BBM brand ammo is repacked RWS too.
A common problem with .22 revolvers. The leading can removed with soaking in solvent and some effort. It's easier to prevent by cleaning often and not waiting too long after shooting. The gap on my stainless steel Single-Six is very narrow, letting it get overly dirty isn't a good idea. I shoot a lot of bulk ammo.
Had one ,sold it..shot ok.but got worse in accuracy and functioning after the first 50 rds. Hated cleaning it every single time right after shooting it!..takes 2-3 times longer than my .357s, cause 22LR shoots so so very dirty. Didn't matter brand of ammo either!. Don't forget, revolvers have a cylinder gap, so shes really super nasty dirty when your done. Also had pieces of unburnt powder/bullet lube wax/Lead hitting my arms and face. Bouncing back at me from the forcing cone area! Do not shoot this leaning against/ standing right next to a pole/ shooting range wall or support !.you will be hit by flying derbies! Again, due to dirty 22lr ..Most autos in 22lr are a lot faster and less labor intensive to clean up. And this is comming from a heavy revolver guy!.
crockett11000 🤔🤔something to ponder on.Get yourself a sonic cleaner on eBay put simple green cleaner in the basin. Put the handgun in it suspended in a green fishnet so it won’t get scratched. It vibrates all the dirt/carbon/oil off the gun. Just walk away let the machine do the work. hair dryer the components dry.That’s what I do with my Ruger Mark 2 stainless steel 6 inch. Just make sure you get all components with oil because it has none.
It sounds like you had a cylinder timing issue, if you were getting sprayed with bullet shavings. Chamber opening wasn't lining up properly with the forcing cone.
It cost more to manufacture a 10 shot .22 revolver than it does to manufacture a 5 or 6 shot revolver in a larger caliber. Hence you see few new .22 revolvers compared to say .357/.38 revolvers. With Heritage, and Ruger Wranglers, both single action, being the exceptions.
billt460$665 that's more reasonable, this is a fun shooting range gun, a bit too heavy and big for a conceal carry firearm, as far using it as a defense firearm many say differently but I think stopping power of a .22 lr is just fine because I'll take grouping accuracy over caliber size any day. but yes I actually asked my son about it this gun because I like it and he found one in a place called gun broker or something like that for around $600 new, he said this place has every gun imaginable it's like eBay for guns they have minimums but are well below msrp, getting the Rex Zero 1 9mm this week but I'm getting one of these after Xmas, let me know how it shots even though I know it's pretty much Dead Eye Accurate because of the weight and barrel length, it's a Dirty Harry .44 Magnum without the recoil, looks sweet
The precision machining is more complicated on 10 round .22lr revolvers than on six round revolvers in larger calibers. This' why you see few .22 double action revolvers offered, compared to the larger calibers.
hmm, I could spend $700 for a Ruger (of questionable quality), or I could spend less than $200 on a Heritage Arms (6 rounds only, but almost 1/4th the price). Good luck with that Ruger! lmao
I bought one and love it. Shoots and chambers 22 Short, 22 Long and 22 LR. Even shotshells of 22 caliber shoot fine. I installed a full Hogue rubber grip with recoil attributes by design. It matches my Hogue X-frame rubber grips well.

billt460$665 that's more reasonable, this is a fun shooting range gun, a bit too heavy and big for a conceal carry firearm, as far using it as a defense firearm many say differently but I think stopping power of a .22 lr is just fine because I'll take grouping accuracy over caliber size any day. but yes I actually asked my son about it this gun because I like it and he found one in a place called gun broker or something like that for around $600 new, he said this place has every gun imaginable it's like eBay for guns they have minimums but are well below msrp, getting the Rex Zero 1 9mm this week but I'm getting one of these after Xmas, let me know how it shots even though I know it's pretty much Dead Eye Accurate because of the weight and barrel length, it's a Dirty Harry .44 Magnum without the recoil, looks sweet
But the ammo is cheap🤔
The precision machining is more complicated on 10 round .22lr revolvers than on six round revolvers in larger calibers. This' why you see few .22 double action revolvers offered, compared to the larger calibers.
I counted 6 shots and started saying hey stop.... anyone else think the same?
AMMO!!!!!
Too heavy for a .22, I'm not manly enough to heft it.
780 👍👀👯💕💕 ^^
Why spend so much video time on shooting but show no after the fact targets?! You’re as bad as Hickock 45.
hmm, I could spend $700 for a Ruger (of questionable quality), or I could spend less than $200 on a Heritage Arms (6 rounds only, but almost 1/4th the price). Good luck with that Ruger! lmao
My Heritage has 9 rounds! Less than 200.00. But I do have the GP100 in 357mag! Both are awesome guns...
Ruger Wrangler, now back to selling for $199.00 or even a bit less.
