Taurus 856 Ultra Lite .38 Special Plus P 2 inch 6 rounds Aluminum Concealed Hammer

The Taurus 856 Ultra-Lite Revolver delivers a carry-focused package from Taurus 856 series that merges a small-frame, 2-inch carbon steel barrel and matte black cylinder with an anodized aluminum frame and a soft finger-grooved rubber grip to produce a 16-ounce, six-shot .38 Special +P option built for everyday concealed carry and close-quarters defensive use. Its concealed hammer and double-action-only firing system keep the profile snag-free for appendix or belt carry while the serrated ramp front and fixed rear sight provide quick target acquisition under stress; a transfer bar safety adds a layer of drop protection without complicating operation. Weighing in at about 1 pound with a 6.55-inch overall length and 4.80-inch height, this compact revolver balances shootability and low-print concealment for new carry owners and seasoned users who want a reliable back-up or primary off-duty sidearm. The 856 series is known for straightforward reliability and serviceable ergonomics, and the durable matte finishes on frame, barrel and cylinder resist wear from daily carry. As a manufactured firearm from Brazil, the 856 requires FFL transfer and serves well for defensive training, range familiarization, and close-in protection where a simple, rugged revolver is preferred.
