NICE GUN, IT IS WHAT IT IS. I CARRY THIS WITHOUT COMPLAINT.

I bought this gun for my wife, she loves it. She likes it for its weight and ease to shoot it. Done put about 300 rounds through it with no problems of any kind. I would recommend it to anybody.

Good little carry gun. Works great.

The Taurus M85 Ultralte .38 is a fabulous compact handgun. The fit and finish are superb and the smooth action stages as well or better than the more expensive brands in my collection. I have fired it extensively and would have no reservation of relying on it for daily carry. Kudos to Taurus USA.

Old school snub nose. Feels well made and the price point is hard to beat. I like revolvers given that they can be fired from inside a pocket without malfunctioning, which is good for personal defense, I have never had any malfunctions at all, to be honest. Super easy and simple to load and unload. Being a 38, it will stop what and who you need it to. And if you want to lessen the recoil you can drop in 95-grain (I usually shoot 158). Comfy to hold, although the cylinder release is a little stiff. As I said, never had it bind. Keep it well lubricated and it will last for many years of reliable shooting.

Great little shooter, I paired it with a good pocket holster After about 300 p rounds I started to notice a goove on the ejector star where the casing lip sits. Took it to my local gunsmith I have worked with before and he wasnt worried about it after putting it under the magnifying glass on his workbench. FYI that the grips are awesome for what they do but also block a speedloader so you will need to trim the rubber or come up with a different strategy. I went with speed strips as they are thinner in the pocket.

Bought this for a pocket revolver. Taurus has made great strides since the 90's and now makes a great gun and their warranty is one of the best. This gun functioned great but I needed a little longer grip as I have bigger hands. So I sold this and bought the polymer 85 with the longer grip. Been happy with it too.

Excellent gun I have two now. The pakerized for a bitter and the stainless for carry. Love the gun.

Great gun !! Bought when these were 199.00 with a 40 rebate cant beat that!!

Didnt know what to expect but what I got was great! Awesome deals fast shipping no bs! Thanks!

Great Buy,Would Buy From Anytime,Fast Transaction!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA++++++++++++++++++

Shipping was fast, and firearm has operated flawlessly so far. I am very disappointed with the finish though but that's on Taurus. Buds guns was excellent to do business with.

Great little gun, very happy with my purchase and with buds, as usual! If anyone is looking for a 38 snub, give the Taurus a try before spending at least twice what you’d pay for the 85.

great price and product , was shipped in a timely manor, pistol,has a good feel and shoots great

Taurus M85 UltraLite 5RD 38SP +P is an excellent shooting revolver with a smooth trigger pull, you think your shooting a long single action, I'ts a great looking gun and feels good in your hand nice grips. Highly recommend.

Very Dope Revolver . Nice and small can fit anywhere and super light. Stainless steel finish makes it stand out

This Tarus ultra Light shoots good. It is a little bigger than some of the guns, I use it for consealed carry on Sunday at church and it is good for that..

I purchased this revolver in mid-September. It is now the end of November and I haven't been able to use it once because the cylinder won't open. Sent it to the manufacturer and am waiting for their verdict. I have never had this issue with a brand new revolver. Won't be purchasing any Taurus products again.

Bought the pistol when Taurus had the 40 dollar rebate. Initially the pistol looked good the fit and finish. Once home I found that the timing was off, Called Taurus and they sent a shipping label. Mailed it off. Hope the service department is good and they repair it properly. Very disappointed !

Received my Taurus 85 at my FFL today. Nice little revolver, smooth action and good lockup and timing. Can not be any better for the price. Thanks to Bud's for there fast service.

I have not shot this gun yet, but the quality is good and I really like holding it. I recommend buying this.

Model 85s are good ones, don't let the low price fool you, this is a well made firearm, accurate and goes bang every time, and as always Buds does a Good Job

Great piece that really is ultralite. Kicks good with the +P, but what do you expect. If you like a concealable wheel gun, this is a great piece.
