What’s Included
- Ruger GP100 DAO revolver
Built on Ruger’s robust stainless GP100 frame, this variant features a six-shot, triple-locking cylinder that closes at the front, rear, and bottom for added strength under .357 Magnum pressures.
The DAO configuration is factory original, verified by the bobbed hammer and smooth combat trigger. This setup was favored by agencies seeking a consistent pull for every shot.
Import marks from Century Arms International on the frame confirm its Canadian police surplus history, adding traceable provenance for collectors interested in service firearms.
Its one-piece black rubber Monogrip with hardwood inserts helps manage recoil while preserving the classic GP100 look. The integral rear notch and serrated ramp front blade offer a snag-free, duty-ready sight picture.
