Just had my sp101 trigger bobbed, polished the trigger so there's no sharp edges, they shortened the trigger pull and put a night sight(front) on. TJs gunsmithing in Aurora Colorado. Tim has done a ton of work for me and I always walked away satisfied. This is not a phroo phroo pistol, it works well for what it's intended, a tough go to gun.

 

Before I discovered Gemini Custom I had Cylinder & Slide work on one of my SP101s. C&S did very good work. That said, Gemini Custom has worked on my other SP101s doing the same work as C&S for half the price and with a two to three week turnaround instead of a six month wait and then an eight week turnaround after the gun was mailed in. The quality of work performed by Gemini Custom's was as good if not better than C&S.

 

Tim from TJ's gunsmithing came from C&S, I love what he did to mine.

 

Sp101

I hope to be able to get some custom work done on mine someday.

Only work done on mine is a "poor-man's" trigger job. (dry-firing ad nauseum).

Lots of LUBE!

 

Any other recommendations of revolver 'Smiths ?

All I really want is the best trigger I can get(reliability being prime) and the hammer bobbed(something stylish,of course:biglaugh

I'm in Georgia;so,a good revolver-oriented Gunsmith in-state would suit me just fine.

Since the subject is SP101s;what are some good grip-options on this gun? I like the stock one ok;but,rubber and plastic grips are not my favorite.

"...grip-options..."

Badger's are an option but for a shooter, I'd stay stock rubber or Trausch.

 

I have seen some nice rugers from Magna-Port. Also heard they do a sweet trigger job on rugers.

One of the nice things about the factory grips is they are solid, with just the square thingie down the center.
This means if the gun points a bit high, you carefully sand (grind?) the lower rear till it points naturally. A round butt look.
Did it to mine, points like a dream. Looks OK too.
Even got a bit into the lower rear of the side panels.

edit: I have one with a hammer spur, one without, both factory. The spurless has the sanded butt.

I put Trausch grips on mine, my smith polished and smoothed out the edges on the trigger, bobbed the hammer,smoothed the trigger pull and shortened the triggger reset, All works well.

 

Best pistol smith in the business is Hamilton Bowen. His company is Bowen Classic Arms and is in Tenn. Google his site. He has a lot of packages for the SP101.
