[QUOTE="Junior Bonner, post: 2968168, member: 33416"] The GP 100s are low slung fighting guns and it was a real struggle to decide which one to pick from between the GP100 and the 64. I mean, I was back and forth on it for a long time - months. Ruger isn't messing around and they have a very aggressive line-up. In the end I went with the 64 mainly because I didn't see anything on it that would catch on clothing during a critical draw. The hammer spur is set well beneath the top strap and hasn't snagged on the Kangaroo chest band. It pulls from the deep conceal in a smooth, buttery draw. The 100 is an example of Ruger's straightfoward thinking, but the smooth lines of the 64 kept drawing me back - again and again. There's a lot of variations of the GP100, and two of them almost had me. Those two looked a lot like the 64, but had shorter barrels. The Rugers are built like tanks, but so is the 64. The 64 is the most overbuilt 38 Special I've seen. But it just feels and handles so good. At home and out and about, often - but not always, I'll have the Bulldog in a pancake belt holster with part of my shirt tail covering it. Many times though, I'll have the 340 in a pocket holster instead - because it's just so grab and go - I mean really, really convenient. What I carry in the Kangaroo chest band is a semi-auto when not at work. Speaking of work - it's time to get ready to head that way... [/QUOTE]
