Taurus 856 Ultra Lite 38sp Tun 2"

The Taurus 856 Ultra Lite 38 Special with 2-inch barrel is a purpose-built, lightweight snubnose revolver engineered for concealed carry, backup duty, and deep-cover law enforcement applications. Designed for operators who demand minimal weight without sacrificing reliability, this six-shot revolver combines the proven durability of Taurus's 856 platform with an ultra-lightweight alloy frame that tips the scales at just 1 pound. The 2-inch barrel delivers the compact profile essential for inside-the-waistband and pocket carry, making it an ideal choice for plainclothes work, executive protection, and personal defense scenarios where weight and concealability are mission-critical.

Built on an alloy frame with a matte finish, the 856 Ultra Lite resists corrosion and glare while maintaining durability under tactical conditions. The fixed rear sight and serrated ramp front sight provide a rugged, snag-free sight picture optimized for rapid target acquisition in close-quarters and stress-fire scenarios. The 38 Special chambering—a ballistically proven law enforcement round—offers controllable recoil energy ideal for shooters managing rapid follow-up shots in confined spaces. Black rubber grips ensure a secure hold even when handling the minimal recoil impulse characteristic of this lightweight platform, while the six-round capacity balances magazine capacity against the slim profile essential for deep concealment.

The Taurus 856 Ultra Lite serves plainclothes officers, armed security professionals, and civilians seeking a reliable, lightweight defensive revolver for daily carry and backup duty. The compact 6.55-inch overall length allows integration into ankle holsters, pocket rigs, and compact IWB configurations without printing or creating bulk. Law enforcement and military personnel appreciate the revolver's mechanical simplicity and proven reliability in adverse conditions, while the light weight reduces fatigue during extended wear cycles. This revolver pairs seamlessly with Taurus-compatible holster systems and operates flawlessly with standard 38 Special ammunition, including full-power duty loads and low-recoil practice rounds.
