(NYSE: RGR) is pleased to announce a new Ruger\u00ae SP101\u00ae five-shot revolver chambered in the venerable .357 Magnum cartridge and featuring a 4.2&#8243; barrel with improved sights.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The SP101 has been an extremely popular small frame revolver since its inception in 1988, but it has always featured a short barrel and minimal sights,&#8221; said Chris Killoy, Ruger Vice President of Sales and Marketing. &#8220;This new version is a quality .357 Magnum small frame revolver with a longer, full shroud barrel and improved sights that offers the shooter a better sight picture, longer sight radius, and additional weight to better control recoil. I am confident enthusiasts will find that this 4.2&#8243; .357 Magnum is a great all around centerfire revolver that remains true to classic SP101 styling,&#8221; he concluded.<\/p>\n<p>The newest Ruger SP101 is constructed of weather-resistant stainless steel with a satin finish, and wears checkered and engraved walnut grip panels inset in the one-piece rubber grip. The 29.5-ounce double\/single-action revolver features a fully adjustable square notch blade rear sight and green HiViz\u00ae front sight. The 4.2&#8243; barrel features a full shroud covering the ejector rod.<\/p>\n<p>For more information on the new 4.2&#8243; SP101 revolver chambered in .357 Magnum, or to learn more about the extensive line of award-winning Ruger firearms, visit <a href=\"http:\/\/Ruger.com\" target=\"_blank\">Ruger.com<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/Facebook.com\/Ruger\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook.com\/Ruger<\/a>.
