Thumbs up Let's see your GP100

Since I got mine I've realized that almost everyone has one. I'd like to see pics of all of them. Here's mine.

Well why not? Everyone should have at least one GP100.

Bountyhunter, I wish you lived closer, I'd like to shoot a cylinder or two out of that 6". I ordered that one originally but then had second thoughts and went with the 4" (which I absolutely love). One day I'd like to try the 6 though.

The Hogue rugger grips fit me well but I still score better on the range with the factory grips. The good news is the Hogues are under $20 so you're not out much if you don't like them. Yes, there is a big difference in "feel". I like the Hogues better for tactical practice but leave the Ruger factory grips on when I carry concealed.

I may look into a set and try them. I guess for the money it can't hurt.

Thanks.

Ok I did it. For $22 I had to try them out. They feel real good. I'll take it to the range this weekend and give them a workout. They don't look completely horrible, but not as nice as the stock grips. If I like the way they handle at the range they're staying on. If not, They'll be in the classified section real quick.

Boy, Bountyhunter, you don't mess around!

You actually sound like me: "Hey that's neat, what is that? Where can I get one? I'm going to get one. Hey I got one, check it out!"

They look extremely comfortable. But I find the original ones very comfortable and easy to shoot with. Some custom made inserts from 41 magnum and I don't think I'll ever change 'em.

Anxious to see a range report though!

I always say the best way to do something is to get off your @ss and do it.

I do like the originals very much. If I don't like these I'm going to contact 41 Magnum.

I like the blue. I originally wanted the blued version but found the SS used.

Here's mine. It has Houge grips on it now. I tried some Pacymer's, but didn't really like them too well.

I like blue, but down here in Florida, the humidity just screams, "STAINLESS".....
Ok, I like stainess and hard chrome better.

That's pretty sweet!

Are those grips made special for that gun?

Nice firearm there! Those Kentucky boys do a nice job, don't they? I reckon you think it was money well spent or you wouldn't be so proud of it! LOL You think it helped the gun perform that much better?

Bountyhunter: Yes...the grips are Badger grips customized to my small hands.
Drummer: You betcha! I've always had a problem with muzzle flip on .357 mag until Marc worked on this gun. I wanted to acheive Old Fluff's 5-5-5 test for self-defense carry...be able to fire five rounds at five yards in five seconds and keep the impacting rounds within 5 inches of POA. I can actually do this at seven yards with this revolver and using hot rounds. I lose only 100 feet per second. The weapon is a piece of art and the moon clips make for easy ejecting and reloading. I love this revovler so much that I retired my .45 ACP from carry.
