Guns Listing ID: 705831



TAURUS 85, .38 SPL, 5 ROUNDS, 2.0 \" BARREL. DA/SA, IN VERYGOOD CONDITION.

The Taurus Model 85 is a highly popular, compact 5-shot .38 Special revolver. Highly regarded for concealed carry, it measures roughly 6.5 inches overall with a 2-inch barrel. It is a reliable, affordable pocket-carry option, though traditional lightweight models can produce snappy recoil with +P rounds.

*****Expert Reviews & Community Consensus*****
**Affordability: The Alien Gear Holsters review highlights its exceptional value, noting it often retails for under $400, making it one of the most budget-friendly defensive revolvers on the market.
**Reliability: Community feedback indicates it functions well right out of the box with little to no maintenance. However, some users note that the factory double-action trigger pull can be gritty initially and benefits from a break-in period or polishing.
**Concealability: Because it shares similar dimensions with the Smith & Wesson J-frame, holster and accessory availability is excellent.
**Recoil Management: The factory rubber grips are praised for making the handgun controllable.
**Safety: The modern iterations utilize a transfer-bar safety system, allowing the revolver to be safely carried with all five chambers loaded.
