Taurus 856 Ultra Lite .38 Special Revolver

If you need a revolver you can comfortably carry all day, or keep accessible for home defense, the Taurus 856 Ultra Lite is worth a look. This isn’t a range toy; it’s built for practical use – concealed carry is common here, and this revolver fits the bill. It’s also a good choice for newer shooters getting used to a revolver action, with manageable recoil.

The Taurus 856 features a stainless aluminum alloy frame, making it lighter than a traditional steel revolver without sacrificing durability. The enclosed hammer design helps prevent accidental discharge and makes it easier to carry concealed without snagging. With its 2-inch barrel, it’s a compact package, but still holds 6 rounds of .38 Special +P ammunition.
