I will admit to being on a revolver kick lately. My first handgun was a Ruger Redhawk that I bought when I was about 16 so I guess I have always liked revolvers made by Ruger. I currently have four GP's of one kind of another, but have always been intrigued by the MC iteration.
After trying for a year to find one new I began to look through the local online sales sites and found a very clean one made in 2017. The owner was a bit older, I guess you could say my age, but had trouble with the sights and his vision. He shot it about 100 times or so and put it in the safe. After a quick inspection, I was pleased to see that is a well put together example of the MC. No trips back to Ruger for this one.
I brought it home and did a quick field strip to take a look at the internals. Ruger did do a much better job polishing the internals of this revolver compared to my other GP's. The action and is very smooth, but there is a small hitch in the single action. I will do the Poor Boy Trigger job and shoot the heck of it to improve this. Glock lovers who also like GP100's or similar constructed Ruger revolvers should know that a Glock armorers tool works great for removing the trigger guard assembly.
Although I do like the factory Hogue wood grips, I put on a set of compact grips for field carry.
Overall I am very pleased! I love the 1/2 lug look, wanted fixed sights, but one I could get a good sight picture with, and can't wait to shoot it.
Here are a couple more pics just to make the thread not worthless:
