re: Ruger GP100 357 Mag 4" or 6"

I have the GP100 6" and love it, although it's obviously not something I would carry concealed (don't think I could if I tried).
Very little recoil since the gun itself is so heavy. My hand hurts more from shooting my S&W J-Frame .38 Special than it does from the GP100 shooting .357 magnum.
I swapped out the front site for a tritium sight.
ETA -
Not a tritium sight, it is a HiViz LitePipe sight.
And this:
I was amazed at how accurate I was with this revolver. Low recoil and a long barrel makes for a very accurate gun.

So many LEO and Mil carry wheel guns! I'll postpone my hardon.

Sexy gun but...
Do you mean fiber optic? That doesn't look like a night sight.
As for the OP, I'm with Downshift. It depends what you intend to do with it. Personally, if it's just a general purpose gun, I think a 4" is a good size. Think of it as a full sized, steel framed, semi-auto. That's about the size it is, but slightly bigger.
