The biggest plus to my SP101 is that it's weight makes shooting 38 specials like shooting a .22 cal.
Weirdest thing is, it's remarkably accurate.
Lousy sights, short barrel, but man it's more accurate than my G19.
Given it's stainless, plus I traded out the stock grips for some Hogue grips - It really is beautiful.
I shot it 'once' a with magnum load...heavy as it is the recoil left me pointing at the stars.
Magnum loads are no fun, never mind the recoil, the muzzle blast is punishing too...

Re: Does anybody here still care a revolver?
Not me, and I have an SP101 .357 Magnum with a spurless hammer, so double action only.
It's a hideout gun for inside the house.
I bought it new a long time before getting my CHL.
Soon, I realized it was too heavy for every day carry and capacity was to say the least (5 rounds) ...limited.
However, it is a work of art. Built like a tank and yes, gorgeous. I keep it available, but shoot it sparingly and have zero interest in selling it. I carried it exactly once as a BUG. Too much hardware. Heck, if I was going to carry a BUG, it'd be another semi-auto with greater capacity. However, carrying a BUG, blah, too much hardware. If one is thinking a BUG is necessary, I'd carry another G19.
