I just picked up a Ruger Sp101 in a 9mm for my wife to carry. Excellent condition. Momma seems to like. I sorta wish I could have found an LCR, but I think this will do. Pics to come.

I'm looking forward to seeing//reading about your find.

I believe Ruger discontinued these a while back, but I've sort of been on the look-out for one ever since I read about them last year.

Congrats! Nice find I like Ruger's, I like 9mm, I have not seen one of these in person. If I ever found one I'd have a hard time not scooping it up.

Nice. I'd like to see pictures of that.

I have a Taurus 905 9mm snubbie and love it. I dunno why 9mm revolvers aren't more popular.

At any rate it is a still a very collectible, well built firearm that I would love to have. Should last you several life times. Break my heart, tell me what you paid?

I have been hunting for one reasonably priced for a while now.

$300 + some 45 ammo. I was very lucky with it.

Looks great. How does it shoot?

Wow I know it's documented that I said I'm not buying another gun for a long time but I'll give you back your $300. Congrats!

Funny. I saw the serial number, went back to my records (which I keep for every gun I own or have ever owned), and sure enough, that baby was mine at one point.

My excitement is similar to finding a dollar bill logged in at http://www.wheresgeorge.com/.

Seriously? That is awesome. Probably is. They didn't make a ton of them. Also, that's a great idea. I'm going to start cataloging mine as well. My wife and I are taking our HCP class this Saturday, so I'll let you know how it shots after the weekend. I know it points well.

There is absolutely no doubt. Here is one of my pix from when it was mine.

My wife just went out and passed her HCP test with it. The felt recoil is negligible. She's still getting used to the Heavy DA trigger pull. But is happy with it.

That must be quite an experience, seeing a gun you owned before show up on a forum. Sort of like running across a '55 Chevy you owned when you were a teen ager, I would imagine. Sharp revolver.

Why do they call it common sense, when it's so uncommon? TH Sen. Fred Thompson
