Taurus 2-85621ULC22 856 Ultra-Lite 38 Special 6rd 2" Matte Black Cylinder Cerakote Copper Transfer Bar Safety

The Taurus 856 Ultra-Lite 38 Special revolver is purpose-built for law enforcement, security professionals, and civilian carriers who demand a lightweight, reliable backup or primary defensive weapon. With a 2-inch barrel and 6-round capacity, this compact revolver delivers the stopping power of 38 Special in a form factor light enough for all-day carry without fatigue. The transfer bar safety mechanism ensures secure handling during tactical draws and rapid deployment scenarios.

The 856 Ultra-Lite features an alloy frame construction that reduces overall weight to just 1.52 pounds—critical for duty belts and ankle carry where cumulative load matters. The matte black finish with copper Cerakote cylinder provides superior corrosion resistance and durability in high-sweat and outdoor environments where standard bluing fails. Fixed rear sights and a serrated ramp front sight deliver rapid target acquisition without snag hazards, while the black rubber grip ensures positive control during stress-fired shots and ensures the gun doesn't shift in your hand under recoil.

This revolver is ideal for off-duty carry, deep concealment, or as a secondary firearm in vehicles and safes where reliability without batteries is non-negotiable. The compact 6.1-inch overall length and light weight make it suitable for ankle holsters, pocket carry, or IWB rigs. Operators experienced with double-action revolvers will appreciate the proven ergonomics and immediate readiness—no safeties to disengage, no magazines to chamber. The 38 Special chambering offers excellent barrier penetration and controllable recoil for follow-up shots in high-stress encounters.
