The GP100 Match Champion is Ruger's competition-optimized variant built around a semi-lug 4.2-inch barrel, slab-sided for a target appearance. It features a competition-tuned action, Hogue stippled hardwood grips, and an Altamont target-style front sight. The trigger is factory-smoothed for competition use. This is Ruger's answer to the S&W Performance Center revolvers.
