Taurus Public Defender .45 Colt and 410 ga 2.5 in 5rd Matte Oxide Finish

The Taurus Public Defender black compact revolver blends old-school versatility with modern carry sensibilities, chambered for .45 Colt and .410 ga with a 2.5" matte black oxide barrel and 5-round steel alloy cylinder for a stout, reliable package ideal for home defense, trail use, or survival kits. With DA/SA operation and an exposed hammer plus a hammer-fired transfer bar for safe, consistent ignition, this small-frame revolver offers familiar control for experienced shooters while the rubber ribber grip soaks up recoil and the fiber optic front with fixed rear sight gives fast target acquisition in low-light encounters. Built on a steel alloy frame and cylinder, weighing 28 oz and measuring 7.657.75" overall, the Public Defenders compact footprint makes it a sensible truck or bedside option where durability matters and simple function is paramount. The extended ejector rod speeds reloads when switching between .45 Colt rounds and defensive .410 shotshells, and Taurus TSS security system provides an in-frame safety layer for storage or transport; because this is a firearm, an FFL transfer is required. For shooters seeking a rugged, convertible revolver in a matte black finish, the Taurus Public Defender delivers trusted mechanics and real-world utility.
