I've actually owned two of the newer model sp101s in 22. Only because the action was so heavy on the first one that I figured it must be a fluke. It wasn't . Both suffered from mediocre triggers that stacked significantly even after significant tuning & spring changes. I never got either to shoot nearly as well as my 17/617s so off they went. Too bad, I wanted to love those guns for their size and features.
Based on my experience , I'd suggest you spend the extra $ and get the S&W K frame.
