I'd like to see Hickok45 run it. He most likely will. Stay tuned. They will likely send him one of the first that comes out. Edge of my seat. Dave You just wish you had his YouTube channel. Oooohhh.... a YouTube "hero" who still didn't get one of the first of these Rugers. How friggin' "special". Let's help poor 'flave with a title. How about Kinkcock45 lol. Merry Christmas

Gunblast has put up a review/video of the pistol.

Probably won't happen, but I sure wish Ruger would do a GP-100 in 10mm with moon clips next. I'd buy one in a heart beat!

Gunblast has put up a review/video of the pistol. Oh, Lord.... Whitworth has had his for months and now GunBlast already has up a review? But, the Internet legend Hickok was supposed to get one of the very first? Chriss said so....

It wouldn't do that if it had a 4" barrel...

And it does look like there's not much 'meat' at the forcing cone and barrel threads.
If tightening the barrel caused some constriction, that could create problems too.
If that's part of the problem, maybe some firelapping would help....

I've not seen the barrel constriction at the frame on GP-100 .357's, or at worst it's minimal, but have seen it in a lot (most) of the .44 and .45 caliber Blackhawks and Super Blackhawks I've owned, plus one .357 Blackhawk. It usually involves about a .001" to .002" smaller diameter than the rest of the bore forward of the frame. Since this is their standard .357 magnum GP-100 barrel with a .430 hole in it I'd say a constriction is quite possible. Ruger SA revolvers are what allowed me to get a fair amount of experience in firelapping...

As a veteran firelapper, and longtime lover of SA Rugers, it's good to know that Ruger finally learned how to build a revolver w/o the barrel constriction. This thread has fueled my preexisting itch for a GP100............the 6".

Never weighed my 22-4 so thought I would. It weighs 2 ounces more (38 ounces) than the Ruger's advertised weight, so I'm guessing this will stay as my big bore, 'light' gun. Still glad to see someone bring the 44 special back around. ![[Linked Image]](http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b297/Shoalcove/Rifle1/22-4_zpsrhpsnqo8.jpg)

Safariman traded me out of mine .. I got a winch, a bear hide, and 7mm mashburn that's shoots 120gr bullets at 6000 fps
Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.
