Taurus 1-TX22331-5X10 TX22 Compact 3.6" 11-Round Threaded Barrel Pistol

The Taurus TX22 Compact 3.6" 11-Round Threaded Barrel Pistol delivers reliable rimfire performance in a purpose-built platform designed for shooters seeking a lightweight, controllable handgun. Built on Taurus's proven TX22 architecture, this compact variant combines shootability with practical carry dimensions—making it ideal for defensive training, recreational shooting, and shooters transitioning to centerfire platforms. The threaded barrel design opens suppressor compatibility, a critical asset for those operating in noise-restricted environments or seeking to reduce shooting signature during extended range sessions.

The 3.6-inch barrel strikes a balance between sight radius and concealability, while the 11-round capacity provides sufficient mag-fed firepower for most defensive and training scenarios. The threaded muzzle—a hallmark of modern tactical rimfire design—accepts standard 1/2x28 suppressors and aftermarket muzzle devices, allowing shooters to tailor the platform to mission-specific requirements. The compact frame geometry and established ergonomics minimize fatigue during extended training blocks, while the rimfire caliber delivers low recoil impulse and cost-effective ammunition for high-volume practice—essential for law enforcement instructors and competitive shooters building fundamentals.

This pistol is particularly suited to shooters who value low-cost training capability without sacrificing modern tactical features. Military and law enforcement personnel benefit from the threaded barrel for suppressed operations, while civilian sport shooters appreciate the reduced noise and ammunition expense. The TX22 Compact's proven reliability and aftermarket ecosystem support optic mounting, magazine extensions, and suppressor compatibility—making it a versatile platform for both concealed carry backup and dedicated range tool. Standard 11-round magazines are readily available, ensuring reliable logistics and part redundancy in the field.
