I just installed a custom front sight on my SP-101 357 mag. This is my summer carry gun and i hated the small black sight that comes installed on the pistol. The Ruger SP-101 is one of the best carry revolver i have owned and very easy to conceal , even with a t-shirt. :thumbs:

Thanks, and the speed strip work very well and you load two rounds at a time with the strip. The best thing about them is they don't imprint in your pocket like the speed loader do , because they are flat. Good way to carry a couple of reloads.:thumbs:
