it's as close to new as i've ever found in my area/this specific pistol



only other point of wear other than the cylinder


it's got the best trigger pull of any pistol i ever owned. should shoot really well

Sweet looking gun how much was it

They do shoot well first shot at 100 ft can hit a pop can sa,its the following shots that miss.
Loaded with 38 it sounds like a pop gun.Did not like the noise and the recoil,a 45 acp is easier to shoot and then shoot again and again,but very accurate gun.

this security six was made in 1982

paid just under 420$ otd for the security six & consider it a great deal cause the other example i wanted previously was 379$ plus transfer fees & was what i'd call a mid 7 on scale of 1-10 w/10 being nib. ss acquired yesterday would be a low to mid 9, but not completely perfect or unfired. a little attention & it will look even closer to new w/just a couple of barely noticeable spots of rust for this 30 yr old pistol. ie. just noticed them doing closer inspection w/bright flash light & know how to remove it.
on the gp100, had 2 buyers w/in 25 minutes of posting for sale ad & one was willing to offer more $ than was asking so he'd get it. was 1st responder anyways & insisted, cause it was such a smoking deal. i try & never talk someone out of giving me more money
i think my gp 357 was actually worth 420$+ also, but wanted to sell quickly to cover buying the six. regardless, i'm up on the gp & appears 419$ is the low end of the ss market, so 'if' i ever decided to let it go would resell for more $ than paid. however, this seems to be one of those pistols that you keep in the family where they're still making gp100s . actually i think they're 101s
i've learned the gp was made to take up the place of security six & specifically tuned for the 357 & higher pressure rounds. it appeared to be cast to me, where the security frame & cylinder look like billet or as though it was made from one block of steel. i guess i can research the ss & know for sure..... i understand ruger lost money selling them due to how much time was spent in production & quality of materials. guess ultimately turned out to be worth it for them, to get the leo recognition, they now currently hold.
i can see some wear near the pins where this one must of been taken apart to improve trigger; this can't be oem. too close to perfect & have read they weren't known for anything special w/trigger.
