pix of sp101 vs. gp100

Can anyone post pix of a 3" GP100 along side a 3" SP101?? I'm trying to get an idea of the 'real world' difference in size. I know the book weights and measurements of each but I would like to visualize it. I'm 5'9 and 140 soaking wet & planning to get one or the other for CCW.

Thanks!

The GP is a 6" but they are side-by-side. Just visualize the SP with the same barrel.

Sisco- what's that bright polished band on the muzzle end of those two Rugers?

I bead blasted both guns but before they went into the blasting cabinet I polished the muzzle ends then put a piece of pin striping tape around them.
After they were blasted I polished out the cylinder flutes too.
Tried a flame job on the GP, it came out OK but had flaws so I re-did it.

Thanks, guys - that's exactly what I was looking for. Looks like I will go with the Sp101 as it will conceal much better for my body type - although a fixed sight 3" GP100 sure does turn me on

Sisco, those are beautiful Rugers. I'm really liking the grips on the SP.

Adios!

Thanks. The SP grip is an Eagle "Secret Service", the GP now wears a Hogue Cocobolo.
