A new Ruger
« on: June 30, 2018, 09:43:44 AM »
I have always thought that the S&W Model 60 was a better gun than the SP101 but sometimes you buy something just because you like the way it looks.

I feel that the engraving on the revolver is really well done.

My father was an engraver, so I am a bit critical of modern engraving. This is done very nicely. Enjoy it!

The engraving on your SP101 looks nice.  Just in time for July 4th!

Beautiful! Who was the engraver?

Ken Smith of Largo, FL. did the engraving.

It is quite unique I think, different from any I have seen.
