First of all, I'm pretty much ignorant of what all a "Bisley" revolver is. The main thing I notice is a "flatter" hammer. What else is involved and what is the appeal?

I did not find that to be so. In fact, just the opposite. My Bisley gripped guns whacked the knuckle of my middle finger. Prefer the Super Blackhawk grip on heavy recoiling guns.

I'm like Bob W. I just bought a Bisley 44 mag.. It whacks my middle finger something fierce. I would trade it for a regular or long? SBH grip frame or maybe a complete 44 mag regular SBH with 5 and 1/2 inch barrel.
There is less room between the grip and trigger guard. I love the way it feels in the hand but not when I actually shoot it.

Some of the top custom gunsmiths will not build the bigger bore guns unless it has a bisley grip frame. Probably because they have to test fire the guns!
