Not a buds rating! Will not blame it on buds. But Ruger revolver barrels are not squared anymore. My Sp101 in 2016 with fixed sights is probably better than this sp101 with adjustable sights in 2024. Sad! Quality control must be out the window, when I can instantly see it with the naked eye. I should not have excepted this” offset “ revolver. Screw the rear sight completely left and deal with an ugly sight on a beautiful gun…? I guess I don’t know what to do now. Maybe have a gunsmith try to rotate the barrel further in place of an $800 dollar pistol to square it up? At least visually! Not happy at all for a damn “quality 357 revolver”! Junk with barrel alignment two pistols in a row! The $350 Taurus revolvers have been more solid shooting than this junk. Sorry, I’m not happy…. Odds are it’s the Ruger products. I purchased the 4.2 barrel for my dad’s retirement gift, but am now reluctant to hand it to him sighted in with the rear sight cranked way over to the left. He’ll call that out immediately. As would anyone pulling up a new pistol for the first time. What can I do besides have the barrel turned tighter? This Ruger quality control is unfortunately gone in my opinion. To have the same issue that I had in 2016 is ridiculous. Sorry, most likely a family of firearm buyers lost here. No more Ruger until proven otherwise….

Absolutely love this beast!!! I haven't shot her yet bit can't wait till I can! The over all feel and look is amazing! Grip feels great buy its a little small for my big hands but otherwise beautiful!!! Only issue was there was some damage to the tip of the barrel but hopefully this doesn't affect the overall use??

Beautiful gun, shoots great. Will probably change out the front sights on it. Only issue I had was with the cci aluminum case 357. Does not like that at all. Had fired rounds that would not eject for the life of me. Had to take it home and pop out shell with a screwdriver..

I absolutely LOVE this pistol. Light, fairly compact, and packs a PUNCH!

Being both a revolver and Ruger fan I had always wanted an SP101. It did not disappoint. I was on a waiting list with Buds who reliably notified me when it became available. The transaction was typically efficient, as expected. To the revolver. Beautifully finished and with a smooth action right out of the box. The sights are excellent, which enhances its accuracy along with the 4" barrel which makes it a pleasure to shoot. One comment is that although the wood inlay grips are attractive, .357 magnums proved to be somewhat of a handful for me due to their narrow profile. .38 specials were fine. This of course could be me getting up there in years. Because of this I installed some Houge rubber grips which made the magnums much more manageable. Overall great gun coupled with excellent service from Buds.

I purchased this RUGER SP101 .357 few years back and I must say, I love this revolver for it's size, comfort and style and does very well when needed for providing protection when I go hiking in the mountains as a back up firearm . I am always confident that this Magnum will perform as expected from the first round all the way to the last.. This .357 goes anywhere I carry. Bud's Gun Shop has always come through. When I contacted customer Service for questions I had with availability and shipping info, they were more than happy to answer all my questions and were not only knowledgeable but very professional as well. Thank you Bus's for a very pleasant experience each time I need firearms and ammo. Gary B.

Perfect revolver. Accurate, and spot on.

My reason for this purchase was to have something on my hip when hunting grouse in Michigan, just in case I'm an idiot and step on a black bear when trudging through the brush. I carry IWB on my right hip, you'll know it's there for sure, but you'll want that weight if you need to fire a .357. It's not too much weight to trudge around the woods for a 3 day grouse hunting trip. I would think twice before selecting this for everyday concealed carry, but for the purpose of a kit gun in the woods I couldn't be happier with my choice.

This is my second Sp101. I Like them both very much. Buds service was great.

I bought this gun because I have always wanted a .357 magnum (and it also is compatible with any .38 special.) I originally thought of getting the Ruger LCRx but
decided it might be a bit light for .357 shooting. Perhaps I should have ordered the GP, a bit too large and heavy for carrying. The SP101 (five shot) is a bit small
and perhaps has more recoil (but I got the four inch barrel.) My only problem is with the small grip in my medium size hand, but I will probably replace it with a larger
after market grip.
