I like the . Ruger uses a transfer bar system between the hammer and the firing pin. I like this safety feature. Most newer Smith and Wesson's have an internal key lock that many people do not like.
Wow I had no clue about the internal locking mechanism. That is right out the window. The Sp101 is a what I am most likely going for. Maybe.
The SP101 is a great gun. The only issue to consider is that the rear sites are fully adjustable. This is great for advanced target shooters, but probably less useful for the more casual enthusiast. In the beginning you might spend a lot of time fiddling with the rear sites.
