The Ruger Blackhawk Bisley Sports South Exclusive .22 LR Revolver (brand part no. 0680) is a single-action revolver built on Ruger’s Bisley grip frame, offered as a distributor-exclusive stainless configuration with a hardwood grip not found on Ruger’s standard catalog listings. Ruger builds this Blackhawk around a cold hammer-forged 6.5-inch stainless barrel for precise, long-lasting rifling, backed by a patented transfer bar mechanism and loading gate interlock that guard against accidental discharge even with a round under the hammer. The Bisley’s distinctive grip shape and unfluted, roll-marked cylinder give it a different feel and profile than a standard Blackhawk, while the ramp front and adjustable rear sights let a shooter dial in point of impact for target work or plinking. Among our revolvers, this Blackhawk Bisley suits single-action enthusiasts and collectors looking for a distributor-exclusive variant of a proven Ruger platform.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes this a Sports South Exclusive? It’s a distributor-exclusive configuration — a stainless 6.5-inch Bisley-frame Blackhawk with a hardwood grip — not offered as a standard catalog listing from Ruger directly.

What does the transfer bar do? It blocks the firing pin from contacting a chambered round unless the trigger is fully pulled, letting you safely carry with all six chambers loaded.

What’s different about the Bisley grip? The Bisley frame uses a different grip shape and an unfluted cylinder compared to a standard Blackhawk, giving a distinct point of aim and feel.
