The 3" 327 SP101 is back in production... It's a decent 6-shooter 327 carry option.

Crankylove daily carries a 3".
I carry an LCR.
His is more fun at the range.
I love my SP101. My only complaint is the windage only adjustable rear sight. But, it’s worked well enough for the last 6 years, so I guess it’s not that big a deal.
The fiber-optic sight SP101 seemed to me to be aimed at hunters and, potentially, target shooters.The only thing I dislike about the SP101 .327's is the fiber optic front on the 4 inch; it's not conducive to concealed carry. You don't see them on the 6 shot GP100's, which are more plinking guns, whereas the SP's are obviously carry guns.
At least they're easily removable, but I shouldn't have to bother with buying a new ramp front sight, that should be standard and the FO fronts included.
Ruger sells an OWB Triple-K holster tailor-made for that model.
fourbore, the sheer volume of posts in this thread is simply the result of nearly ALL conversation on the subject of the .327 Federal being contained in one single discussion.
Imagine if every time somebody asked about .357, or talked about a new .357 on the market, or pined for a new .357 they wished someone would make, or complained about a .357 that is no longer offered... imagine if ALL those thoughts were contained in one massive discussion?
It would be far bigger than this thread.
reteach, if you don't mind my asking, what was the price on your Single Seven? I've seen anywhere from $529 to $599 online (with the lower price disappearing pretty quick).I went to a gun show today to sell some stuff and instead came home with a Ruger Single Seven. It's one of the Lipsey's exclusives with the birdshead grip and 3 3/4 inch barrel. Now I'm looking for a holster for that gun. I would like holster that rides kinda high and tight, with a single tunnel for the belt. No western rig, just something simple. There are plenty of holsters for Single Sixes, but I can't find one for the 3 3/4" barrel. Anyone have a suggestion? Thanks.
