Ruger SP101 .22lr...any news yet?

[cableguy]

Any news on this one yet?

Word has it from other sources/forums that it was to debut mid August 2011.

It's Sept...

I need to spend some money...

Too bad we couldn't use it here as a "slick little rimfire trail gun."

Very nice looking gun. I have to agree with Scott_N it is really to bad or I would have a few handguns

Ditto. Instead i have none. No point in spending all that money on something i can only shoot at paper in one place with.

Oh I really like that, i will get one

Funny Ruger has no mention of this nice 22 revolver on there site? I was already to order? Oh well another advertising to the gun mags, and they probably will not make them, too bad, Dale Z!

Fall release down south means next year for us most likely.

This is the hottest .22lr handgun I think I've ever seen. Period. Anxiously awaiting its arrival.

With COs being about as plentifull as "peckers on a pickerel", you would be surprized at how many .22 handguns, see action in the field.
So I am told.

X2 that real is a nice looking revolver.

 

[Gunslinger]

I will have one!

I like the half lug barrel contour on that SP101. I hope that S&W is paying attention; a 106mm version of the Model 18 Combat Masterpiece, or a stainless version thereof (Model 618?), would be neat.

 

[P12]

I've always wanted a revolver in .22, I might buy this one.

 

[cableguy]

It's finally official.
It's available as shown on their website.
Time for a trip down to my lgs.

I like this revolver.. MSRP is higher than I anticipated

 

[cableguy]

Of course while we're anxiously waiting...the folks down south are already enjoying some range time with this little wonder.

Here's some nice reviews for those who are interested.
