The Ruger SP101® Model 5719 is a compact .357 Magnum double-action revolver built around Ruger’s rugged stainless-steel SP101 platform. Featuring a 3-inch barrel, five-round capacity, Satin Stainless finish, cushioned black rubber grip, and fixed sights, Model 5719 provides a practical middle ground between Ruger’s shorter 2.25-inch SP101 models and its longer-barreled configurations. Ruger currently lists Model 5719 as Currently Unavailable.
The revolver is chambered in .357 Magnum and uses a five-round cylinder. Ruger’s triple-locking cylinder design locks into the frame at the front, rear, and bottom, providing positive alignment and dependable operation.
Model 5719 is manufactured from stainless steel with a Satin Stainless finish. Ruger equips it with a cushioned black rubber grip with a black synthetic insert. The grip has no exposed metal along the backstrap, helping provide a comfortable gripping surface, while the SP101 grip frame can accommodate a variety of compatible custom grips.
The 3-inch barrel gives Model 5719 an overall length of 8 inches and a weight of 27 ounces. This provides a slightly longer sight radius than the 2.25-inch SP101 while retaining the compact dimensions characteristic of the platform.
For sighting, Ruger uses a pinned and replaceable black ramp front sight paired with an integral rear sight. This straightforward fixed-sight configuration keeps the revolver's profile clean and uncomplicated.
The SP101 also incorporates Ruger’s transfer-bar safety mechanism. Its integrated subassemblies can be disassembled without special tools, simplifying routine maintenance and reassembly.
For customers looking for a compact but substantial stainless .357 Magnum revolver, the Ruger SP101 Model 5719 combines a 3-inch barrel, five-round capacity, fixed sights, cushioned rubber grip, and Ruger's proven triple-locking cylinder design.
