I just purchased a Ruger Speed Six 9mm 2.75" Bbl today and a GP 100 .357 Mag 4" Bbl yesterday !!!!! I need to know what year these revolvers were manufactured ????
GP 100 Ser# 173-452XX
Speed Six Ser# 158-193XX
Thanks in advance for anyone who can shed some light on these
manufacture dates.

Yep - we need pictures- so unlimber that camera or borrow one from a friend and practice your photography skills by getting us some eye candy. Those are some nice guns, congratulations!
Are they both blued guns?

NO !!!! The Speed Six is stainless and the GP 100 is blued !!!!!

You will like that 9mm Speed Six, I am sure...I am lucky enough to own one, and, for me, it is scary accurate, for what it is...!
