retail is $1549

Hey Stang... 

I like it looks like something han solo would edc

$1549 is pretty steep for a GP100, even if I am a big Ruger fan
I will still check it out
see how it stacks up to a Dan Wesson 1911 
I know they are 2 different animals, but price wise maybe similar depending which Dan Wesson
lately I've been stuck on these DW 1911's

how did it shoot?

how did it shoot?

It shoots great, just needs a better shooter I was able to get some help working on my DA trigger pull. When I did my part correctly it was on point.

I have a Wolff spring trigger kit for my GP100 I haven't installed yet
i'll let you know how it goes
its pretty cheap, was only about $10 from MidwayUSA

I would have bought a revolver a while ago if we had CCW here.  It would be my ankle gun.  I was looking at the Ruger LCR in 9mm.  The wife would have bought one too, but purple.

I have an LCR in 38 and in 22LR
with a pocket holster its about the size of a wallet
I also have a OWB kydex for just around the house
its my doorbell security gun   

I was seriously considering a LCRx in 9mm

Yeah, dogman is awesome!  Has a staggering collection of revolvers and the knowledge of them.

I've shot both 9 mm and .38 SPL "ankle revolvers" and to me, the 9 mm versions have their quirks.  The 9 mm models are appealing since I already have a bunch of 9 mm though.  Speaking of dogman, I believe he had a 9 mm ankle revolver the last shoot.  I think it was the LCR.  Nice little revolver.

Very nice!  Those GP100s are built like tanks!  And awesome that you have a limited edition one that stands out.   

S&W 627 Performance Center
8 round 357, can use moon clips
going to test it out this weekend.  do a little comparison of S&W 627 Performance Center vs Ruger GP100 Wiley Clapp with Wolff spring kit vs Colt Cobra.  since they're all short barrel, carry revolvers

did a small kine comparison over the weekend on 3 revolvers:
Colt Cobra, Ruger GP100 Wiley Clapp, S&W 627
comparison is mostly on the trigger/action, how it shoots/feels, size of revolver and capacity.  since I went silhouette side, accuracy wasn't taken into consideration

i'll give a short summary of each revolver:
Colt Cobra:  its 38 special, 6 shots.  trigger and action are very good, I give it second place in back of the S&W 627.  with rubber grip feels good to shoot, although cannot get your pinky on the grip, but its 38 special so recoil isn't really a problem.  the revolver is small enough to put in your pocket, so its very concealable.

Ruger GP100 Wiley Clapp:  357, 6 shots.  I did a Wolff spring upgrade on it, 12 lbs mainspring/hammer spring and 10 lbs trigger return spring.  these are the heaviest springs in the kit, I could go lighter later if I want.  the trigger/action is better than factory but still its the heaviest of the 3 revolvers I shot on this day.  GP100 was the most comfortable to shoot, bc of the full rubber grip, can shoot 357's all day long with this revolver.  size is right in the middle of the Colt and S&W, but it would be hard to carry this in anything other than OWB

S&W 627:  8 shots of 357, takes moonclips.  trigger and action are the best among the revolvers I shot on this day, very smooth.  factory grips were painful to shoot, could not get my pinky on the grip, it was very painful on the web of my right hand between thumb and trigger finger.  switched it to Altamont grips that are slightly bigger, got my pinky on it, and its waaaaay better now.  it is the biggest revolver of the 3, so OWB is probably the only way to carry this.

each one has its place.  if you need small, go with the Cobra.  if you need capacity and moon clips, go with the 627.  if you want something in the middle, go with the GP100.  hard to pick an overall winner bc they each have a specialty that makes them standout

these are the new Altamont grips:  (Altamont grips always fit great, and look great.  I think I have 3 or 4 sets of Altamonts)
