Blued is always gorgeous, I think more so than stainless. My issue is I’m anal and if I get a scratch on a stainless I will fix it. Blued is way more challenging. That said I need to add some blued guns to my collection
I had a GP100 back in the early 90's. I could shoot this just as well as the .45 I was issued, and even better than the 9mm that replaced the .45. I had to get one again, and this is the exact model I have now. It's a great firearm to have.
Its five years i have my 4.2 " SS GP100 ,I love it and shoot it everytime I go to the range more often than my other firearms, the only gripe i had were the front sights ,black front and back sights wasnt doing much for my old eyes so i got the Ruger GP 100 high viz sights and what a gamme changer ,happy shooting and stay safe.
It's simply one great revolver, it holds up to full power 357 mag loads (Buffalo bore 357mag/180 grain )all day long for years on end. Price and quality are in sync! One of Ruger's best revolvers in 357 mags, next to their 357 mags single action New Blackhawks (which are even more robust than the GP100). Btw, the Ruger New Super Blackhawk 44 mag Bisley with a 3,75-inch barrel is a dream to carry in the backcountry and a pleasure to shoot. Can't go wrong with either!
Got mine new in 1985 for $340. The stainless finish with 4" barrel cost me $10 more than the blued gun. I'm going to guess about 10K rounds through it and it's just as tight and solid as it was the first day. This is the LAST gun I would ever think of selling.
Get the Williams fire sights set & they're made of stainless steel too, accuracy increased by 50% with my GP100 6" stainless. I highly recommend those sights.
@@Conklikov Just a heads-up, make sure you have a 1/16th punch tool on hand to slowly push the rear sight pin out. I scratched the frame a bit trying to push it out with a small drill bit.
Hell yea they picked up the game on the cases! Mine came with a smaller gray case. Regardless, super glad I picked up the SS 7 shooter before it fell off the Commiefornia roster. I prefer my 686 over the GP100, but it still a great gun!
I hardly see revolver in shops much anymore lately. At least the ones I frequent. I’m not sure why , don’t get me wrong there is still revolvers to be had but I used to be able to pick from 30-40 different models at a bigger local dealer now in terms of Rugers they only had a few lcrs and the wranglers . Either they are selling the other ones like hot cakes or ruger isn’t putting out as many revolver runs focusing on. Newer more profitable product lines
I just put a Ruger GP100 357 Magnum in layaway and the price on it was 799 and I'm going to go get it out before the end of this month. It is a beautiful looking gun and I can't wait to shoot it
I just picked one up. I noticed when bullets are in the cylinder, they slide back and forth. I can hear them move around. The bullets are not snug. Is this normal on your Ruger?
I would imagine any currently produced gp100 would be the same. I know there is big differences in the 22 model frame to be sure, but the difference may only be in cylinder wall thickness or something of that nature rather than of the frame due to the dimensions of the round being so close
Ammo or guns? , there were no 10 mm on the shelf when I went through. But they did have some 10 mm revolvers and 1911s. That being said when I bought my gp100, they sold me some 357 out from the back because I bought a new gun. Two boxes of 50. So if you know someone they may let you luck into getting some.

I have a GP100, blued, 4 1/4" barrel. Love it and highly recommended.

Me too. Blued and waxed.

I took my brother out a couple of years back and bought him his first gun. I was proud when he picked the Ruger GP100.

It’s on my list of things to do. Good to see a great report of the sights.

The best revolver in the world!
I dropped a fiber optic front sight on mine, and that's the only thing I had to do to make it perfect.
$500 about 6 months ago.
I did the same and it makes a big difference for sure
Great review! I have the Match Champion GP100, I love it.
The match champion looks like a slick package. Nice extra features. Thanks for watching.
You got a great deal! In my nick of the woods is going for $799 new.

I just got this gun 2 weeks ago and I love it I also reload for it
Congrats. It’s a beaut and a nice shooter.
@@Conklikov ya I really like this pistol just glad I have the stuff to reload for it
I just got one. Great video thank you, I hope the ammunition prices were cheaper. So we all can afford to shoot them. 🤓👍🇺🇸
That gun should give a lifetime of trouble free operation
That’s my hope, i have done a few things to it like some lighter springs now and some fiber optic sights, they really make it a smooth shooter.
Ruger makes the best revolvers for the price they sale for.
I agree, although they have been creeping up in price over the last few years
$735 and up at most places in the US in 2024
Ya they seem to be creeping up , but it’s a well made durable 357
Should I get one? I've been looking at this for over a year
Yes you should it’s a great revolver
I just picked one up. I noticed when bullets are in the cylinder, they slide back and forth. I can hear them move around. The bullets are not snug. Is this normal on your Ruger?
Yes it is. In fact, it is common in the 686 and in other revolvers.
Normal on most revolvers, recessed cylinders probably cut down on the noise, but it’s pretty much a non issue
Hello, if you have a revolver Ruger GP 100, could you show how to remove the striker, thanks! .
When the hammer is down is the revolver drop safe? ....or is there a chance that the trigger could actually cycle when dropped?
Yes, safe.
@@TheRotorhound Thanks for the info. Thanks for replying.
@@rael5469 yes, there is a transfer bar, trigger must be depressed.
@@TheRotorhound Good to know. Thanks again.
Is the ruger gp100 type .38 special and type .357 magnum the same strength construction? thank you .
I would imagine any currently produced gp100 would be the same. I know there is big differences in the 22 model frame to be sure, but the difference may only be in cylinder wall thickness or something of that nature rather than of the frame due to the dimensions of the round being so close
8 SHOT 10 SHOT VİDEOS
Do you know if williams had any 10mm?

What tooLls can you ise to push rear sights out?
A nice punch set should work well
@@Conklikov sorry i was talking about front sight
