Ruger GP100 5”

I wonder if anyone has come across a 5” GP100 in 357 in Canada?

IRG will also have them if you don't mind the wait.

I'm liking the new GP grips and the half lug versions.

I agree on the half lug profile looking good but I'm not a fan of unfluted cylinders.

Yes that was in 44 special. The 357 has the standard fluted cylinder for a more classic look.

Oooo, so nice! Great sight setup too! This gun would be my choice over the Match Champion.....

I personally hate half lug barrels but love the look of unflutted cylinders.

Those are nice looking! Are these limited? I don’t see them on the Ruger website?

If only they offered a fixed sight version.

I can't believe they retail for more then S&W these days...

An extra layer of middleman in the distribution system compared to S&W maybe?

I've got the 6" GP100 and it's a dream. I don't think I'd go down to the 5 or 4.2" barrels after having this.

nice looking revolver. I held a 5 inch smith in a local gun shop one day and did it ever point nice. I think it was a smith 610 ?? in 10mm & 40 s&w.

HI; The original security six was well balanced and light. Too many people MAG shot them with ever load. SOOO the GP 100 was born and it is anvil strong and heavy.
Now a five inch is a good barrel length for 357. The less lug weight is good. The brass bead front sight is classic. The grips should be good.
AS to the no lug look, well some people have a python look hang up, even if they are not now or ever the best revolver around.

I have the 4.2", I would not go longer lol. It's super accurate, recoil is not a problem, and it is balanced very nice.
