Question on transfer bars
I have three GP100s and one SP101. If I gently shake each, the transfer bar rattles a lot on the SP101 and some what on one of the GP100s. I just bought this SP101 and only found this by accident.
Is this normal?

They install them well enough so they don't go anywhere, but loose enough so they do not drag on the trigger-pull.

Totally normal for a Ruger.

Not being able to hear the transfer bar when you shake your gun could also mean you have a very dirty or gunked up gun that is in need of cleaning.
Or, it could also mean that it was lubricated with grease, and that's providing just enough... stickiness... to keep it from rattling.
