Guns Listing ID: 612978



The Taurus 856 is a compact, reliable revolver designed for personal defense, blending modern engineering with classic wheel-gun simplicity. Chambered in .38 Special, the 856 features a six-shot cylinder, offering an extra round compared to traditional five-shot snub-nose revolvers—an important advantage in defensive situations.

Built on a small, durable frame, the Taurus 856 is engineered for strength while remaining easy to carry. Its double-action/single-action trigger allows for quick follow-up shots or more deliberate, precise firing. The revolver’s 2-inch barrel enhances concealability, making it well-suited for concealed carry, home defense, or backup use, while still maintaining respectable accuracy at close to medium ranges.

The 856 is available in multiple configurations, including matte black, stainless steel, and anodized finishes, as well as models with exposed or concealed hammers to suit different carry preferences. Ergonomic rubber or polymer grips provide a secure, comfortable hold and help manage recoil, even during extended practice sessions.

Taurus equips the 856 with a fixed front sight and rear notch, designed for fast target acquisition in high-stress situations. Its solid steel construction contributes to longevity and consistent performance, while the revolver’s simple manual of arms makes it approachable for both new shooters and experienced users.

Overall, the Taurus 856 stands out as a dependable, affordable revolver that balances concealability, capacity, and shootability. It is a practical choice for anyone seeking a straightforward defensive firearm with proven revolver reliability.
