Ruger SP101 Model KSP-321XEN Special Edition Premier

    I’m not much for engraving either but I like it. I’m with MB Wolf as they coulda been a little more reserved. I’m partial to the SP101 anyway as I carry one every day. 2.25 DAO.
    Yes they are working guns. Yes they are built like safes but I don’t think i’d go as far as calling them “beater guns”. No they aren’t as refined as others but to blue collar guys like me, a 500.00 gun is a weeks pay and something we’re quite proud of. We love em and care for em as some would care for their 3000.00 custom 1911′s. Just a thought.

    Ruger has always been a gun you could count on no matter what you had done to it and the 101 is a good example. By far not the prettiest but a good working gun no less. I know I used to have one till the times got a little ruff and had to sell it. But as far as the scrolling goes seems a little to much, maybe they should of just kind of high lighted it but the grip are what sets it off to me.

    The engraving looks like etching in that photo.

    I’ve never liked Ruger’s grips.

    The wood grips look very nice.

    The engraving is so strange and random, that I thought I was looking at a heavily scratched revolver at first.

    I’ve always considered the SP101 to be a ‘beater’, a good truck / boat / toolbox gun that you could stash somewhere for emergencies. Seeing it ‘duded’ up just seems wrong.

    Oh well, maybe the same people who spend $60,000 blinging up a Chevy Pick Up will be the same who buy this Ruger.

    Sadly it is to my taste. Is it so wrong to want at least one over the top ornamental gun? I even liked the Benito Juarez 1911 you had earlier.

    Not so much on the engraving, but those grips look sweet.
