So looking around town for a sp101 with a 3in. barrel today and came across a gun store that I've never tried. Walked in and there was quite a selection.
Asked him if he had the Ruger in 3in and said that he didn't because no big company made holsters for them. I was under the impression that both Don Hume and Bianci both make holsters for the Ruger sp101 in 3in.
So i asked if he had the Smith&Wesson j frame equivalent. No, for the same reason.
He continued by saying that he would not get a Ruger or a S&W because Rugers are badly poorly made because they are cast, and S&W had poor firing pin strikes(i asked if he was concerned with the internal locks and he said no).
His suggestion on what to buy was a Taurus because they are very reliable and have no quality issues. I'm relatively new on the forums but from what I hear just the opposite is true about the Taurus line?
Looking for some clarification.
Sincerely,
JAK
