Model number for 6" half lug Ruger GP-100?

[Matt Sutton]

Can anyone with a real good memory or older Ruger catalog tell me the exact model number for the Ruger GP-100 in stainless with the 6" half lug barrel? I had one of these things in my hand about two years ago, and I'm still kicking myself for not buying it.

It's a KGP-1??

Thanks for your help!

I got one of those. Yup better kick yourself for passing that one up.
I don't recall the model number either. And dont see it on MY gun ... As I slide the long smooth round barrel throough my hands. Gently cressing the rare half lug over only the ejector rod.....

Ouch! That's hittin' below the belt.
Do you still have the box? The model should be on it. I'm now thinking that it's a KGP-160.

kgp160 makes sense. I was checking out the catalog, and the even numbers are half lug, and the odd numbers ie 161 is the full lug. I'd like to get the kgp 140 myself, it's a sweet looking gun.

I believe Matt (KGP-160) is correct:
> K for stainless
> GP-1 for GP-100 series
> 6 for six inch barrel
> 0 for half-lug (1 in the third character position would be the full lug version)
