Ruger GP100 Complete Specs and Full Gun Specifications

Best decision I ever made was buying this revolver

My first revolver and it didn't disappoint !!Everyone needs to own a .38 / .357 mag revolver.

Ruger's Best 357 Revolver Ever

I purchased the Match Champion around a year ago. Rarely does a product live to all the hype you see and read online, but the Match Champion will exceed your expectations. To start with, if you took all the best features of the extremely popular (and sore

GP100 6"

One of the best guns a person can buy, well wroth the money!The gun was dead on right out of the box. Both SA and DD action was flawless. Vary easy to clean but I fired 500 rounds with out cleaning just to see how it would fire, AND still no problems! Lik

GP100 Confused review?

I have owned the GP100 plus many many others and would have to give the GP very high marks.

Ruger GP 100 Match Champion

Excellent fit and finish. Looks of this Ruger GP MC are stellar.

GunFun

WOW, excellent weapon, zombies beware!

GP100

A very accurate and well made firearm. The trigger feels smooth and breaks well and the gun feels good in the hand. I added wood grips and fiber optic sights.

bad purchase at bass pro again

although this is the match version of Rugers GP100. the standard version of this pistol is no longer in Bass pros inventory page. just purchased the standard stainless GP100 at a local bass pro.. other than the display model this was the last one they had

Exceeded expectations

The Match Champion version of the GP100 is very accurate and reliable. I purchased the adjustable sight version because I like to load my own 357's and am glad this version was available. I did put a different set of properly sized shims in it for the ham

Disappointed...

I purchased the GP 100 Match Champion on the strength of lengthy research and the recommendations of so many apparently satisfied customers. When I handled it at my preferred gun dealer, the gun felt nicely balanced, and very comfortable in my hand. The t

CRUDELY FINISHED

As the description says it is a rugged and reliable revolver. The fit & finish is also pretty bad. The crane is ill fitting and the polish job poor. This never would have happened when Mr. Ruger was running things. Pay a little more and get a Smith &a

Impressive Hande cannon

The GP-100 in 357 with the 6 inch barrel is a visually impressive firearm. It is even more impressive on the range. I equipped mine with an easily added accessory rail and a red dot sight. Shooting 38 Special its easy to put 20 for 20 in the 8 ring or bet

Great gun

I own both Ruger and S&W revolvers and the GP 100 is probably the best of the bunch! It is way over built and shows zero wear after thousands of rounds. Ruger does not include a warrentee card because they guarnatee their guns forever so ignore people

Possibly the best double action on the market

I have a few pistols and revolvers. I had no double action revolvers. I decided on the .357mag caliber because the recoil would be manageable. So I set about looking for a revolver that had looks quality and functioned well. I read reviews for different m

Awesome Gun

I went to Cabela's a few years ago looking to buy a sidearm to carry for protection from black bears while bow hunting for deer/turkeys. I did a lot of research online and made the mistake of just looking at prices and making my mind up before I ever went

Solid

A very functional, dependable revolver. Not as smooth or refined as a Smith or Colt, but a good value for the money. Double action is a bit of a challenge, but single action isn't too bad at all. Accuracy was a pleasant surprise to be honest. Yep, I'm not

Great Gun

I bought the 6" model. Gun was sighted in perfectly right out of the box. The hogue grips fit great and I have large hands. This gun is solidly built and will provide many years of service.

Every gunner needs this wheel gun.

The Ruger GP100 is a "must have" for anyone who fancies themselves a hand-gunner. The GP100 has the strength to handle the hottest hand-loads and the flexibility to power down to light shooting .38's. Firing this tank of a weapon with the Hogue

Excellent Balance and Accurate

I purchased the GP100 with 6 inch barrel specifically for hunting. It was balanced and the feel was excellent out of the case and has remained so after installing a scope. Recoil shooting the 357 magnum was negligible. Sight in was simple and easy. This r

GREAT REVOLVER

Nice balance and accurate.Stainless Steel finish adds to the look to go with the function.Handles both .357 and .38's equally as well.Right weight to comfortably shoot the .357.Easy breakdown for cleaning.

The one to keep

I've owned them all over the last 30 years, Colt, Wesson, S&W, and Ruger. While all of them have individual attributes, no other mid-sized revolver offers the strength and solid, vault like lock up of the GP-100. Over the years, as finances periodical

Best gun ever

If I could only own one gun it would be this one with a six each barrel I have killed a deer at 100 yards, and chukers with the bird shot, and every thing in between.its a shotgun, pistol, and a rifle.

GP100 4"

This is the second GP I bought and it is better than the first year they came out. Better grips and the trigger is great for a Ruger. I've fired some very hot loads out of it. So hot it would not drop the empties but none of the other hand guns would eith

Awesome Ruger

Purchased a GP100 Ruger and it is awesome. I love the fact that I can shoot both .357 and .38 Specials from this gun. It is well balanced so the recoil is minimal.

Ruger GP 100 Pay attention to the 5 star ratings!

Okay, I can't add anything from the other reviewers other than to pay attention, as the Ruger GP 100 has earned all these 5 star ratings. What attracted me to this weapon was the molded black Hogue grips. They are as comfortable as they come!I wanted a re

COLLECTOR PIECE AND VERY FUNCTIONAL

Looked at the standard 4" GP100 for months---awaiting an opportunity to purchase it. The day I went to get it, sitting next to it was the Royal Phoenix Model--Couldnt pass up the ROYAL for it beauty and great piece as the stock model. Got the best of

Can't go wrong with a GP100

Have owned a Stainless Steel 6" GP100 for a number of years now, and am completely satisfied with its performance and quality. After hundreds of rounds through it in all climates and situations, its fit is as tight and it shoots just as accurate as t

Excellent Choice

i have never owned a pistol until this one. I have shot pistols in the military and of friends and relatives. I never had a good feel with any of them. I like big bore guns and decided to try a pistol. I did my research and headed to Bass Pro. The salesma

Awesome Revolver - Best .357 Magnum!

After searching the Web with my friend who is considering buying a GP100, I decided to post this review. I’ve owned a 6 inch, stainless steel .357 Magnum model for over four years and I love the revolver. I am a die-hard Ruger fan and the GP100 is just an

Sherman tank

Built like a tank. Shoots .357 very comfortably, little felt recoil. More comfortable than shooting .38 in a snobnose. Very solid gun.

GP100

I own many handguns and recently added this one to my collection. It is built like a Russian tank and shoots exceptionally well. I was looking at the competition and I hate to say it but they don't make them like they use to. I shoot magnum loads and the

Solid Working Revolver

After much research this was my first purchase. The large frame makes it easy for my wife to manage recoil. She shoots .38 rounds since she has small hands/wrists and can shoot 50 bullets comfortably in one session. I adjusted the sights at my first range

My favorite handgun

I currently own 5 handguns and since purchasing my GP100 it has become my favorite firearm. I got the 6 inch stainless model. I quickly mastered the 25 and 50 yard range with it usually shooting 38's. I had some success at 100 yards shooting .357's but my

Ruger GP100 .357

This revolver fits into my big hands better than other more expensive makes and models. The rubber grips are very comfortable. The GP100 is built sturdy but not clunky and I like the feel and balance with the 4.2" barrel. It draws faster from a holst

Top of the line revolver

Picked up a used GP100 in store. EXCELLENT revolver. No hiccups, fine craftsmanship, will stay in the family for generations. Do the research, GP100's are some of the best .357s out there, competing with S&W at a lower cost.

My Favorite Firearm

These are quality pieces that you will be able to hand down to the next generation. I bought this gun and added hogue grips, brighter sights, and polished it to a high shine. It is very pleasing aesthetically and shoots like a dream.

Great Product

I recently purchased a Ruger model GP100 - .357 magnum. It is a great gun, nice weight and balance, flawless operation. It is another firearm added to my collection that I will have for years to come..

Awesome revolver

The GP-100 is an impressive, big & heavy handgun. In Ruger tradition, sharp-looking & "built like a tank." Adjustable sights, 6-round cylinder, comfortable grips with finger grooves. As a .357, also easily handles .38 SPCL & .38 +P a

A top notch revolver

I have two of these 4" & 6", blued and stainless respectively. Both balance well and shoot straighter than my hands and eyes allow. The grips fit my medium-large hands well. The triggers are plenty smooth and weighted for a factory gun. Neit

Great gun!

Cabella's Outfitter was knowledgeable, helpful, and most courteous. The 6" GP100 is a pleasure to shoot. I like the smooth action, feel and heft. Really glad I selected this one, and have taken friends to Cabela's to recommend it to them

6 inch Barrel for real

LOVE this gun. Started buying Ruger because this was so well put together. Fire 38s and 357s with no problems. Easy to clean!

Top gun

I can allways count on Cabelas for a good price,Very nice gun for the price and can takea heave load.

Favorite Pistol in the Safe

Just picked this up for my 30th birthday in SS w/ 6" barrel shooting 158grain hollow points. I have not shot anything other then the 158's, but it shoots so well with them I don't plan on changing what I started with. I held the S&W 686, immediat

Blued GP100 6 inch barrel

I own a Ruger GP100 and a SW 686 plus they are very comparable in quality and I enjoy shooting them both. Can't go wrong with either one. The GP100 is a little cheaper but the 686 plus shoots 7 rounds.

nice job by Ruger

I have this in 357 with the 6 inch barrel. This weapon fits the hand nicely and is well balanced. I used lead bullets in handloads and can achieve about three moa at 25 yards. Still tuning my loads but I'm almost positive the gun is more accurate than me.

GP100 6"barrel

Bought mine at a local pistol range in June and now realize I made the right choice. I also looked at the Taurus .357 but it is not as well built as the Ruger.When I shoot .38 rounds I can not feel any recoil. The .357 has slight recoil which is reduced b

Ruger GP100 6" barrel, SS

Bought one recently from a shooting range and I must say: This is an EXCELLENT gun. And it's nice to be able to shoot a cheaper .38 Special for targets.I checked out the Taurus and felt the Ruger was much better made.

Ruger GP100

I have the GP100 6 inch barrel .357, and I couldn't ask more out of a revolver. It is powerful, very accurate, and just fun to shoot. I like the 6 inch, as it helps manage recoil a little more and gives you better velocity. I added a set of tritium sights

Solid as a rock @ Price you can afford

I own many Ruger firearms and I'd say they are the best value in the firearm industry. Buy S & W and pay a fortune for it and it'll last a lifetime. Buy a Ruger and pay a modest price and it'll also last a lifetime. Great quality, great reliability, t

First Handgun

Great gun! Have model 1707 put 100 rounds through it at least in the first 6 weeks! First handgun ever! Works great.

Great First Gun

Bought at Cabela's on New Year's Eve. Told the salesman that this was my first handgun and he recommended the GP-100. The gun is well-machined and everything operates smoothly. The adjustable rear sight was accurate out of the box. As a new shooter, I was

Excellent fire arm

I have the GP100 in the 6 inch barrel. these are excellent firearms which handle well and are accurate. I can knock the wings off a fly at a pretty good distance with it straight out of the box. cleaning is easy with the swing out cylinder. the action is

New Gun In shop for 2nd time

had so many problems with my new gun so far its not funny

Excellent revolver

Just purchased the GP 100 357mag with rosewood grips. Not only is it a beautiful gun, but is a joy to shoot. I have partial paralysis in my hands, and found the triggers on s&w, eaa, and rossi revolvers just too difficult to pull with one finger. The

Excellent

I purchased a GP100 about 20 years ago as my first revolver; having grown up around Ruger firearms, I had a lot of confidence in their products. Mine originally came with the rubber/gancalo alves grips which I eventually replaced with Hogues which are now
