Pre-Owned Ruger GP100 .357 Magnum Revolver with Large Case and Leather OWB Holster Included

This pre-owned Ruger GP100 is a double-action/single-action revolver chambered in .357 Magnum and compatible with .38 Special ammunition. The GP100 is part of Ruger’s full-size revolver lineup and is widely recognized for its stainless steel construction, heavy-duty frame design, and long-standing use in sporting, recreational, and general-purpose handgun applications.

The revolver is built on a solid-frame platform designed to provide structural rigidity and durability under repeated firing conditions. Unlike revolvers that use a side plate construction, the GP100 utilizes a solid frame design that contributes to increased strength and mechanical stability. This design feature is one of the defining characteristics of the GP100 series.

Chambered in .357 Magnum, this revolver is also capable of firing .38 Special cartridges. The .357 Magnum cartridge is a high-pressure revolver round commonly used in target shooting, outdoor applications, and general handgun use. The ability to also chamber .38 Special ammunition provides additional flexibility for lower-recoil shooting and training purposes.

The GP100 operates using a traditional double-action/single-action trigger system. In double-action mode, pulling the trigger rotates the cylinder and releases the hammer in a single motion. In single-action mode, the hammer is manually cocked prior to firing, resulting in a reduced trigger pull weight. This system is commonly used in revolvers intended for both precision shooting and general handling.

The revolver features a six-round cylinder with a swing-out design. This allows for loading and unloading of cartridges using the ejector rod once the cylinder is opened. The cylinder locks at multiple points within the frame to help maintain alignment during firing. This triple-locking cylinder system is a standard feature of the GP100 platform and contributes to consistent operation.

Constructed from stainless steel, both the frame and cylinder are designed to resist corrosion and wear under typical usage conditions. Stainless steel construction is commonly used in revolvers intended for long-term durability and ease of maintenance. The finish may vary slightly depending on prior use, and pre-owned examples may show handling marks or surface wear consistent with normal operation.

The GP100 is equipped with a fixed sight system. This typically includes a front sight blade and an integrated rear sight notch machined into the frame or top strap. Fixed sights are designed for durability and simplicity, requiring no adjustment under normal conditions.

The grip is removable and can be replaced with compatible aftermarket or factory-style grips. Grip design and material may vary depending on the specific configuration or prior ownership history. The factory grip configuration is generally designed to provide a stable and ergonomic hold during firing.

This listing includes a large storage case and a leather OWB (outside-the-waistband) holster. The case provides a protective storage and transport solution for the revolver. The OWB holster is designed for belt-mounted exterior carry and is commonly used for range transport or general field use. Fit and retention characteristics may vary depending on holster design and firearm configuration.

As a pre-owned firearm, this Ruger GP100 may show signs of previous use. Cosmetic wear may include surface scratches, holster wear, handling marks, or finish variations. These conditions are typical of used firearms and do not necessarily affect mechanical function. Buyers are encouraged to review all available photographs and condition details carefully prior to purchase.

Routine maintenance for the GP100 includes standard revolver care procedures such as cleaning the barrel, cylinder chambers, and ejector rod assembly. Lubrication of moving parts and periodic inspection of the crane, cylinder lockup, and trigger mechanism are recommended. Maintenance should be performed in accordance with manufacturer guidelines.

The GP100 is widely recognized for its robust mechanical design and straightforward operation. Its construction emphasizes durability and long service life under typical usage conditions. The revolver’s design allows for field stripping without specialized tools, enabling basic cleaning and maintenance to be performed by the user.
