A well built and highly underrated revolver. The trigger has lightened up and smoothed out with use and cylinder lockup is nice and tight. Stock grips, while a bit short, are well designed with a small shelf that is well covered by the thumb of the shooting hand, providing great purchase. Taurus needs to focus on their finishes as the black phosphate style finish wears easily. In fact it seems to almost fall off in front of your eyes. Bud's service was once again great.

Overall, good budget...
Overall, good budget revolver. That being said, be aware that Buds has incorrect listings for this firearm. I purchased the blued, not the matte, but received the matte. Turns out Taurus no longer offers the blued version but Buds continues to list the blued version as if still available; not good. In any event, the gun is a good deal for a budget friendly revolver, although this will be last Buds purchase. Between the higher prices, fees for layaway, and misrepresented guns on their website, my Buds days are over, but the gun itself is worth it.
