Description
Product Overview
The Taurus 856 is a six-shot double-action/single-action revolver chambered in .38 Special +P. Its compact two-inch barrel and manageable recoil make it well suited to concealed carry, personal protection, and home defense. The stainless/silver finish provides a durable, corrosion-resistant exterior, while the wood grip offers a traditional appearance and a secure hold. Fixed standard sights support straightforward target acquisition, and the revolver’s double-action operation enables rapid follow-up shots while its single-action mode provides a lighter, more deliberate trigger pull.
Key Features
- Six-shot cylinder provides six rounds of .38 Special +P capacity without relying on detachable magazines.
- Double-action/single-action operation supports both rapid defensive fire and precise single-action shots.
- Compact two-inch barrel and approximately 22.2-ounce weight support convenient carry.
- Stainless/silver finish offers a durable exterior with resistance to everyday wear and corrosion.
- Wood grip provides a comfortable, classic interface for controlled handling.
- Fixed standard sights deliver a simple, durable aiming system with minimal maintenance.
The Taurus 856 combines compact carry dimensions, versatile DA/SA operation, and .38 Special +P capability in a practical stainless revolver.

Nice gun. Beautiful....
Nice gun. Beautiful. Taurus QC is a bit loose (a small hairline barrel scratch visible at certain angle, slightly raised edge on one side of trigger, a few light machine marks/buffs on the outside metal handle) but it's good. This could also be a sign of the times. The action isn't as smooth as any given Smith & Wesson, but again it's good for the price. This is my 2nd Taurus, the first was a parkerized model 66 a few years ago, with wood grips which had zero cosmetic blemishes. That one shoots well. I like that this 856 has 6 chambers. P is demarcated under the barrel with an asterik after .38 spcl. Keep in mind matte stainless is arguably likely to scratch worse than a polished version. (I bought mine for 407 plus tax, 425 with a 30 dollar mail in rebate which was approved but I've yet to receive). Good feel in hand (I'm 6'3). I've yet to shoot her. I heard 38's are better as snubs than .357's for ballistics, weight and noise reasons, particularly if you are buying a more economic brand--get the .38. Bottom line--I'm not kicking her out of bed. ^^
