Well I just picked up this Ruger SP101 in 22LR for a good price based on what I see on GunBroker.  I've always thought this would be a cool little gun to have.  I spotted this one on Saturday.  I knew these were produced in limited numbers and that it's a pretty desirable gun.  Prices on these on GunBroker are $600... So I'm wondering do I sell it or keep it.  It's a pretty nice feeling little gun.

Guess I could post it over at the Ruger Forum and maybe tempt someone there that has a DW to trade.  Decisions Decisions!

I'd keep it..... you're right Jody, it's desireable and there weren't all that many produced.

Plus, it'll be there for your great grandchild someday?  Unless you have no real "feel" for it, I'd say hang onto it at least untill you see something worth trading it for!

I'll admit that I don't know a lot about Ruger's double actions (even less about the autos), but I had been under the impression that they only made that gun in .38 & .357, so seeing yours in a .22 is pretty neat.Smile

That's a tough call I guess, but if it were me, I'd probably hang onto it for a while...at least long enough to see if it could be a good enticer for a trade, like you said.

I have a little Ruger rimfire collection so  I think I'll end up keeping this one.  I'll try it out this weekend hopefully.

Sure is a heavy little gun!
