The GP100’s 4.20-inch full-underlug heavy barrel gives the revolver a steady sight picture and controlled recoil impulse. The barrel uses a 1:18.75 right-hand twist, and works with the well-defined rifling noted in the bore description.
Its stainless-steel frame, cylinder, barrel, and receiver wear a uniform satin stainless finish for corrosion resistance and easy maintenance. The six-shot fluted cylinder bears an "S" stamp on the rear face—an internal factory inspection/assembly mark, not a capacity marking—and is secured by Ruger’s triple-locking system for consistent alignment and durability.
Controls and handling are straightforward: DA/SA operation with an exposed, checkered-spur hammer, Ruger’s push-button cylinder latch, and a transfer-bar safety. The Hogue black rubber Monogrip with finger grooves provides a firm, comfortable hold.
Sights consist of a ramped front blade and an adjustable rear, allowing precise point-of-impact tuning for .357 Magnum loads. This is the KGP-141 catalog configuration, corresponding to Ruger Model 1705, manufactured in 2011 in the United States.
