Special Features

• Lipsey's exclusive distributor offering, not available through standard Ruger distribution channels
• Bisley-style grip frame is the defining feature of this model, positioning the hand lower on the revolver for a more stable, controlled hold and a straighter trigger pull compared to standard single-action grip profiles
• Bisley-specific hammer features a wider, lower spur that places the thumb in a more natural cocking position and allows faster, more consistent single-action cycling during extended shooting sessions
• Flat-top frame design provides a cleaner, more classic profile that distinguishes the Blackhawk Bisley (5235) from standard crowned-frame single-action revolvers
• Cold hammer-forged barrel delivers tight, precise rifling across 6 grooves for target-grade accuracy and extended barrel life through sustained use
• Black laminate grips resist moisture and temperature changes better than standard wood, maintaining a consistent feel across field conditions and seasonal temperature swings
• Transfer bar mechanism combined with loading gate interlock allows all six chambers to be carried fully loaded with a high level of security against accidental discharge

Practical Benefits

• The Bisley grip profile fits shooters with medium to large hands particularly well, giving you a naturally lower hold that reduces muzzle movement and helps maintain a consistent sight picture through the trigger stroke
• The .44 Special cartridge is a capable choice for handgun hunters targeting small to medium game, and the 5.50-inch barrel delivers full cartridge performance with a sight radius long enough to support precise shot placement at field distances
• The fully adjustable rear sight lets you dial in point of impact for handloaded or factory .44 Special ammunition, making the Blackhawk Bisley (5235) an ideal platform for reloaders who build loads tailored to a specific revolver
• At 45 oz. with a 12-inch overall length, this revolver has the substantial feel and balance that single-action shooters who prefer heavier platforms for steady off-hand accuracy will appreciate
• The black laminate Bisley grips and blued alloy steel finish give this revolver a purposeful, traditional appearance that suits both the range and the field without looking out of place in either setting
• If you have been searching for a single-action .44 Special revolver that combines the ergonomic advantages of the Bisley grip with flat-top styling and target-grade sights, the Blackhawk Bisley (5235) fits your hand and your shooting goals

The Ruger New Model Blackhawk Bisley (5235) in .44 Special is a capable tool for the sport shooter and handgun hunter who wants a precision-focused, Bisley-grip single-action revolver built for accurate, comfortable performance across the range and field.
