The Ruger GP-100 is a great gun and I've fired over a thousand rounds in one that I owned.The only reason I went to the S&W 686 is that it works better for my grip.Both of them are quality revolvers.
There's only one thing wrong with a GP100, as far as I'm concerned. And that is that it is not made by Smith & Wesson. I own a Security Six, which is a very nice gun. I also own a 686+, and it is even nicer.
But as everyone has said, if you want a GP100, go for it! Don't bother with the .327 BTW. I seriously doubt that caliber is going to catch on. The only "benefit" it offers is an extra round in a J frame. You can get 6,7, or even 8 round .357s in full-sized revolvers these days.
At 5'7", 130# I certainly have no intention of CCWing a 6" magnum revolver. It is difficult enough for me to conceal an airweight J-frame. This would be a house gun for home defense. Not a big fan of shotguns or assault weapons anymore.
Does $400 sound fair for a used one in Very Good condition?
If the gun is in like new condition I would think it's a fair deal.It would be even more fair if he threw some ammo or a holster in on the deal.If it's in exellent condition most dealers would give him about $250.00 and sell it for about $400.00 plus tax.
