I've been carrying a Ruger SP101 357 in a Galco deep cover holster for the last month or so. I like the pistol, but I've considered having it "melted" and having the hammer bobbed to make it more comfortable to carry. The holster protects me from most of the sharp edges, but once in a while I'll squat or turn just right and get the hammer spur right in the love handle.

Another down side is that I carry a couple of speedloaders and they're harder to conceal than the pistol. I need to find a good IWB holster for the Sig and put the Ruger back in the bedside table.

The Galco holster I like is called a Royal Guard. I don’t know if they make it for a Sig.

I would try to knock the sharp edges off myself before I would trust a gunsmith. The purpose is to dull the edge and not radius it.

Check with Ruger. They have a bobbed hammer for the SP101.

Very nice.
I sold my SP101 in 1996 and have regretted it ever since.
Lots of fun and a solid package.

I’ve learned my lesson:
NEVER SELL A GUN.
