This Ruger .22LR is one of this famous brands classics which will be familiar to most gun owners, using the standard frame with a stylish authentic look. The eight-shot, double-action .22 revolver is based on their stainless steel SP101 action/frame, but with significant functional and aesthetic improvements.  Functional improvements over earlier SP101 .22's include a grooved rib atop the barrel, fully adjustable rear sight, ramp front sight with a green fiber optic (Hi-Viz) insert and, oh yes, an eight-shot cylinder. The barrel length is four inches.

Aesthetic improvements include wood--rather than plastic--inserts in the black rubber grips, round barrel (instead of the earlier blob shaped barrel), short ejector rod housing (rather than a full length barrel under lug), crisper and better defined top rib. The walnut grip inserts are decorated with checkered panels and a laser cut Ruger eagle logo.
