A new Security Six would not be like the old one---in name only with different innards (probably GP100) and different overall cosmetics much the same as the
new Python.

I consider my SP101 to be a midsize. Smaller than my Security Six but a little larger than my LCR's.Geez Mike, do you have a unicorn also?
Honestly, I don't why Ruger doesn't come out with a mid sized revolver. I've handled and shot the GPS and I can't say that they thrill me. It's like shooting a boat anchor. To me anyway. The Six Series are way more handy and graceful.
My SP101 2.25" is about 10 ounces lighter than my Speed Six 2.75" which handles 357s much better than the SP. As to the GP100 feeling like a boat anchor, the S&W 686 weighs the same. I agree with KevininPa that the Six Series handle better and are less bulky.I consider my SP101 to be a midsize. Smaller than my Security Six but a little larger than my LCR's.

My SP is no where near as refined as my Sec Six..but it's still a blast shoot it.That's how I felt about the SP I had. It also wasn't too refined with a lot of sharper edges.
I sent a message to the Ruger CEO through their “Tell the CEO” program.
After reading this thread and the thread about the .38 Special vs .357 Magnum I decided to send a message to Ruger.
Here it is:
Mr. Killoy,
I am a big fan of Sturm-Ruger’s single action revolvers. I have owned more than a few Vaqueros and a couple of Blackhawks. My favorite long gun is my 9mm PC Carbine and my favorite fun guns are my Ruger 10/22 carbines. Soon I am adding 2 RedHawks to the fold, a 5050 .45 and a 5059 8-shot .357 Magnum.
Anyway, I would like to ask that you folks consider making an adjustable sight 6 shot (or more) .38 Special revolver for those of us that enjoy target shooting, plinking and training with a non-magnum revolver.
Also, I would like to request better front sight options in your “Accessories” line for each type of gun you all manufacture. Not everyone likes those fiber optic sights that have become popular. People with even the slightest astigmatism and other sight issues do not benefit from a blob of light at the end of the barrel.
Please consider the .38 Special recommendation. An SP101 with adjustable sights, a 6 round capacity and a 4.2” barrel or longer would be wonderful.
Thank you for your time.
