History
The Ruger SP-101 was introduced in 1989 as the smaller frame counterpart to the GP-100. Both of these revolvers, together, replaced Sturm, Ruger & Co's long-standing staple in the American firearms market, the Ruger Six series revolvers. While no longer manufactured, a 9mm version was available until around 1998. A basic .22 LR version was also available until 2003 while a redesigned version was introduced in 2011.
