Great quality from Ruger , a revolver solid as a tank , great price for a durable and rear revolver. 3" revolvers are rare and hard to get . I'm a Ruger guy in revolvers and I had s&w in the past. Ruger GP100 is in the same level as a s&w 686 . I had 2 of them , 2 1/2 and 4 inch.

I wanted a pistol that wasn't too heavy to carry in the field with me for "snake" protection. We live in Arizona and out in the desert there are quite a few Diamondback Rattlers. We even have the Mojave Rattlesnake which is extremely deadly. The Ruger 1715 GP100 357/38 with the 3" barrel is perfect! It's finish is beautifully done. It's not to big...but then again not too small either. Shoots very nicely. The caliber carries enough snake shot to dispatch one with ease.
This revolver is also small enough to fit in a nightstand easily for home protection.
I would certainly purchase this again.

This is a great firearm. I looking forward to "running" it soon. Buds did a great job with the price point and shipping, as always. Many thanks to all.

Buds does a really great job because you can’t beat fast and easy with firearms transactions. The revolver is a really fantastic piece haven’t taking it to the range yet but I’m sure to love it.

This gun was gorgeous, but I had to sell it before I ever got a chance to fire it! I have owned GP-100s before so I can comfortably say that they are great guns for the .357 magnum.

Living in Illinois, Buds is a convenient reasonable way to purchase thru an FFL dealer. Usually in IL these are someone working out of their house. My Ruger GP100 is everything advertised, I'm very pleased with it.

I received this product in very good condition and in less than 1 week after processing. Very good service from Bud's. Bought guns from them in the past. Would highly recommend for a gun purchase. Have not shot it yet but sure it will be fine given all the compliments about Ruger.

I don't have to tell you how this revolver performs because you already know . I bought a compact grip from ruger because i always wanted to conceal carry a GP100 and this 3 inch barrel is perfect, it feels more comfortable than my G19. Buds keep up the good work!!!!

Ruger GP-100 3", SS; "Perfection"! Just what I wanted for concealed carry whether out running errands around town, fishing trips and on the hiking trails. .357 Magnum power in a snubby barrel, 6 shots, fixed sights (which I wanted instead of the S&W 686 snubs adjustable sights), rugged design built for durability and the ability to chose different sized grips. These grips are oversized, but extremly comfortable and tucked in an IWB holster, are not that much more difficult to conceal than boot grips. Yes, it IS heavier than a 5 shot S&W .38 Airweight, but if you want Magnum power, performance, dependability / durability over the long term with HOT loads, than the extra weight is COMFORTING as opposed to burdensome. 3" barrel points and shoots more like a 4", at least it feels that way. Stainless steel means less concern pertaining to rust in humid or salty regions. Trigger is crisp, clean and smooth. Be advised, I'm a S&W guy, especially the older "pre-lock" models... absolutely love them. Another reason this Ruger GP-100 (the old Speed Six on Steroids), is PERFECT for the Revolver aficionado... no unsightly lock! Quality throughout, made in NH, USA.

Very strong revolver. I like the 3" barrel. The trigger was typical Ruger but a set of hammer and trigger shims with some wolf springs improved the trigger pull greatly. I'm very satisfied with this purchase.

Always get lucky buying from Buds. My FFL had the gun two before I picked it up and when I asked if it was OK he smiled and said yep. The finish is great on this gun no marks of any kind from machining. Front sight center and barrel straight. I believe his smile was the 9 1/2# DA trigger pull and 4# SA pull both very smooth, he is also the town gunsmith and chief of police. Your trigger pull may be different but it can be great. Took a little off the top of front sight ait shoots the 200gr. Double Tap just right now at 15 yards which is perfect for bear protection here in Alaska. Did order a set of the Hogue grips for the 454 Alaskan with the gell insert for a little more comfort. This to me at 70 is the perfect woods packing revolver and would be hard to beat if I was 21 again.

If you want an all business, or brush sidearm, this will do. Fit and finish are ok but that's not what makes this revolver great. It's a handloaders dream for custom, heavy loads. You probably couldn't blow it up if you tried. The amount of steel and robustness is rediculous and you won't be disappointed. I love my Smith 629, but this revolver is a close second!

Great pistol for around the house. Not a carry weapon. Well made and fits the hand good. Bud's was great as usual. Recommend the product and the service.

It's a Ruger, as solid a handgun as is made. Looks good and shoots good and will outlast me. You cannot go wrong with this Ruger handgun. I like the shorter barrel for ease of handling and storage. I have just shot .38s in it so far. No reason to pay extra for .357s for targeting.
