Hey all, I'm looking to get my first handguns soon, and I am definitely getting revolvers. My plan is to get at Ruger GP100 first for learning/training purposes as well as a house gun. Once I am ready to start carrying I plan to eventually get both a SP101 & an SW Airweight/Airlight, but won't be able to get both at the same time.
Once I have all three revolvers, they will be utilized as follows:
GP100 - Housegun, Training, possibly carried OWB when dress permits
SP101 - primary carry gun when untucked attire is allowable, carried IWB & possibly in coat pockets when dress permits
SW Airweight/Airlight - primary carry gun at work/when tucked attire is required, possible BUG to SP101, pocket carry
So, here are my questions:
1) What length should I get my GP100 & SP101 in?
-GP100 = 3" & SP101 = 2.25"
-GP100 = 3" & SP101 = 3.125"
-GP100 = 4" & SP101 = 2.25"
-GP100 = 4" & SP101 = 3.125"
2) I know I will get the GP100 first, but what order should I get the SP101 & SW in? I am leaning towards getting the SW first since the largest percentage of my carry time will likely be at work which requires tucked attire and thus pocket carry will be most likely. Thoughts?
Thanks.
