Some folks prefer a 38 Special versus a 357. Don't understand the reasoning as I think the 357 gives more versatility by giving the choice to shoot 38 Special, +P, or 357 Magnum. Either the 2.25" or 3" barrel are great choices. For now, I prefer the 2.25" barrel for CCW.

Apologies -- you are absolutely correct: the SP101
does not have an internal lock. Several other Ruger handguns do, but not the SP101. Thank you for the correction.
Completely agreed on the .357 capability option; I don't like .357 in a small frame revolver (although the heft of the SP101 certainly helps compared to an Airweight, or worse, and Airlite), but having the .357/.38 capability is a no-brainer for flexibility's sake.
