I had an SP101 .22 until about a month ago. When I bought it, I liked it so much that I (regretfully) sold off my 4" Model 34-1. The M34-1 just felt too small for me.

The SP is a great revolver, well made, accurate and feels good in the hand. You will HATE the trigger until you swap out the hammer spring for a lighter weight one from Wolff. I think I ended up with a 10# or 12# hammer spring and never had a misfire with several different ammo types. With the spring swapped and a few hundred dry fires, the trigger smoothed right out.

For me, the grips are too small. If you have larger hands, try the grips made by Trausch. They look a bit funky but fit the hand really well and feel a bit like a target stock.

I did end up selling the SP, but that was to fund the 6" no dash 617 I just picked up. I would not hesitate to own another.
