FEATURES:

The Taurus 856 in .38 Special is a compact, full-featured revolver built for dependable everyday carry and personal defense. Designed with both concealment and control in mind, this small-frame revolver offers reliable performance in a platform that remains comfortable to shoot and easy to carry. Available at Smoky Mountain Guns and Ammo, the Taurus 856 brings together modern materials and proven functionality, delivering a trustworthy defensive firearm for a wide range of users.

Constructed from stainless steel, the Taurus 856 provides excellent strength and corrosion resistance. The frame, cylinder, and barrel are finished with a matte stainless surface that resists wear and offers a clean, non-reflective appearance. This finish enhances durability while giving the revolver a refined, professional look that’s equally suited to concealed carry or range use. Its robust construction ensures that it can withstand daily carry, exposure to moisture, and the demands of frequent shooting without compromising performance.

A key feature of this model is the inclusion of VZ grips, made from durable G10 composite material. These grips are textured to offer superior control, even in wet or high-stress conditions. The aggressive grip surface ensures a firm hold and reduces the likelihood of slippage during recoil, making it easier to stay on target through rapid fire. VZ grips are highly regarded for their durability and function, and their presence on the Taurus 856 reflects Taurus’s attention to practical upgrades that matter in real-world use.

At SMGA, the Taurus 856 continues to be a popular choice among those seeking a reliable revolver with practical features and solid build quality. Its stainless steel construction, enhanced with VZ grips and a 6-round capacity, makes it a strong contender for both new and experienced shooters looking for a dependable carry option.
