[QUOTE="TallPrairie, post: 2755200, member: 7815"] Yeah, 2.25" is the way to go for ordinary CCW, and I would pick the spurless-hammer model for that intended role. The 3" SP101 is for woods gun and recreational shooting. Also a fine nightstand gun. Most of the time the 3" guns will shoot lights out, even with factory sights. Also, the longer barrel length gives extra velocity to both .38 and .357 loads. Grips: the Hogue grips, whether wood or the synthetic "monogrip," are something special on the SP101. If you go wood, consider that you may not want a full set of finger grooves. Some find the Hogues too big for CCW. Also, while the synthetic monogrip feels great, its slightly tacky texture can cling to cover garments. For an open carried, recreational, or nightstand SP101, Hogue all day. When you get a good SP101, [I]never sell it[/I]. Shoot the heck out of it. They laugh at high round counts and they just get smoother with use. You may notice SP101s are scarcer on gun show tables than they should be given the sales numbers out there. There is a reason. [/QUOTE]
