TAURUS 738 TCP .380 ACP

Description:
Guns Listing ID: 621860



The Taurus PT738 TCP (Taurus Compact Pistol) is a discontinued, ultra-compact, polymer-framed, locked-breech .380 ACP pocket pistol designed for deep concealment. It was notable for its light weight and smooth double-action-only (DAO) trigger, which some reviewers praised as better than those of competitors like the Ruger LCP.

Key Features:

Deep Concealment: The primary design purpose, its extremely thin and lightweight profile makes it highly suitable for pocket or minimal inside-the-waistband (IWB) carry.
Manageable Recoil: The locked-breech design helps soften felt recoil compared to many other small .380 ACP pistols that use a harsher blowback system.
Smooth Trigger: Reviewers consistently praised the smooth, relatively light (around 4.8 to 5 pounds) DAO trigger pull for a pocket pistol, a standout feature.
Loaded Chamber Indicator: Includes a visual and tactile indicator that a round is in the chamber for added safety.
Discontinued Status: The pistol was produced from around 2009 until approximately 2018 and has since been discontinued, meaning new models are not available and parts support may be limited.
