I have a Stainless Ruger GP100 in .357 magnum with a 6" barrel that was modified by Cylinder and Slide (google will find their site, they do amazing work) and has a Jack Weigand "no drill" scope mount and a Burris 2-7x pistol scope. I had this built for fun, shot it "some" and then added the scope for silhouette pistol matches (of which the scope has seen exactly one match). I'm planning to shoot 3 gun this year, bianchi cup and possibly IDPA and don't see me getting to a silhouette match anytime soon. So, I think it's time to part with this one.
C&S did the following: Bead blasted the finish 11 degree target crown on the barrel Chamfered the cylinders for speed loader use Full "match" trigger job (it really prefers Federal primers and is the nicest trigger I've ever used on a Ruger) Rounded, smoothed and polished the trigger Added a trigger overtravel "stop" Installed Millet open sights (which I have, but had to be removed for the scope mount) I added: Jack Weigand "combat" scope mount Jack Weigand scope rings Burris 2-7x pistol scope This hasn't been fired a whole lot and is in excellent shape. Anyone here who's been shooting with me will tell you that I'm pretty picky about my firearms and they are well cared for. These days a GP100 runs nearly $600. The work C&S did was $500 (or so) more. The scope was $349 and the mount was $90. It would cost over $1,500 to duplicate this pistol. More/better pics on request. $1,175 plus shipping OBO. |

Kevin,
I'm starting to think you might have a few more guns than I do. Looks like a nice piece. Good luck on the sale. |

Stuff tends to come and go around here Mike. I don't usually "have" that many, but I'm always cycling things through my inventory and buying new stuff. I guess the first step is admitting that you have a problem...lol

Those are great guns. I have one myself, without all the fancy toolwork. Good luck on the sale.

I've had two of them. I decided to build an "ultimate" GP100 and I did. Then I had an S&W built and I shoot it all the time and the Ruger has not seen that many rounds. So, I added a scope and decided to set it up for 100 yard silhouette matches and well, here it is. If it doesn't sell, I'll not be offended. It's an odd piece that appeals to a specific buyer. But it's a really nice pistol.
I might sell the scope and mount if someone wants it, then I'll just put the Millet open sights back on it and decide what to do from there. |
