Keeping Traditions Alive Since 1953

There are plenty of GP100s out there, but this TALO exclusive is the one that stops people at the counter. Ruger took their proven double-action .357 Magnum and gave it a high-polish stainless finish paired with checkered hardwood grips, and the result looks more like a presentation piece than a production revolver. The gold bead front sight is a classy touch that also happens to work great on the range, picking up light and settling into the fully adjustable rear sight for a clean, fast sight picture.
The GP100 has been around since 1985 and has a well-deserved reputation as one of the strongest medium-frame revolvers ever built. This one carries all the features that made it famous: a triple-locking cylinder that secures at the front, rear, and bottom of the frame for consistent alignment shot after shot, a transfer bar mechanism for peace of mind, and a full-length underlug on the 4.2 inch barrel that tames muzzle rise. At 40 ounces, it soaks up full-power magnum loads without beating up your hand, and it will happily digest lighter .38 Special all afternoon when you just want to relax and punch paper.
The 4.2 inch barrel is a sweet spot for this platform. It is long enough to get real velocity out of .357 Magnum for the range, the trail, or home defense, yet compact enough to carry in a good belt holster. The peg-style grip frame accepts a huge variety of aftermarket grips if you ever want to change things up, and takedown requires no special tools, so cleaning day is quick and painless.
Six shots of .357 Magnum, a mirror-bright finish, real wood grips, and Ruger's tank-tough construction underneath it all. Plenty of revolvers do one of those things well. This one manages all of them, which is why these TALO runs tend not to sit in the case very long.
Yes. Like any revolver chambered in .357 Magnum, it safely fires .38 Special, including +P loads. A lot of owners run affordable .38s for practice sessions and save the full-house magnum loads for defense or field use. At 40 ounces, this gun makes .38 Special feel like almost nothing.
TALO is a distributor that commissions special runs from Ruger, and this one gets a high-polish stainless finish instead of the standard satin, plus checkered hardwood grips and a gold bead front sight. Mechanically it is the same proven GP100 underneath, so you get the looks without giving up anything in function. These limited runs are produced in smaller numbers than the catalog models.
It is one of the better ones out there. The GP100 platform is widely regarded as one of the strongest medium-frame revolvers ever made, and its heft keeps recoil manageable even with magnum ammo. The adjustable rear sight lets you dial it in for your preferred load, and disassembly for cleaning requires no special tools.
Absolutely. The GP100 uses a peg-style grip frame rather than a traditional full grip frame, which means it accepts a wide range of aftermarket grips from makers like Hogue and Altamont. That said, the checkered hardwood grips on this TALO edition are a big part of its appeal, so many owners leave them right where they are.
