Ruger’s DAO SP101 (part number 5720) dispenses with an external hammer spur, giving the revolver a snag-free profile that aids concealed carry and quick draws from cover garments.
The 2.25-inch barrel is stainless steel with a full rib and full lug, adding forward weight to help manage .357 Magnum recoil while maintaining a compact overall length.
A front ramp sight pairs with a grooved rear topstrap to provide a low-profile, durable sight picture that stays clear of holster wear.
The five-shot cylinder, frame, and barrel are all machined from stainless steel, offering excellent corrosion resistance and long-term durability without the need for additional finishes.
Factory rubber grips with molded groove inserts deliver a secure hold, and the revolver’s 2014 manufacture date reflects Ruger’s modern production refinements.
