Taurus 856 Gentleman s Carry .38 Special +P 2 Barrel 6-Rounds

Overview

Taurus 856 Gentleman s Carry Features Taurus 856 Gentleman s Carry is built on a stainless steel small frame finished in matte black paired with a high-polish DLC-coated black stainless steel cylinder that provides a striking two-tone contrast and long-term corrosion resistance across daily carry conditions. The 2-inch stainless steel barrel with a 1:16.5-inch right-hand twist and 6-groove rifling delivers reliable accuracy with .38 Special and +P defensive loads and the removable serrated pinned front sight can be pulled for a snag-free profile during concealed carry or left in place for a defined aiming reference. A fixed rear sight and transfer bar safety system provide straightforward passive drop protection without a manual safety to manipulate under stress. The double/single-action trigger system gives the 856 Gentleman s Carry shooter the flexibility to fire rapidly in double-action for close-range defensive work or stage a precise single-action shot when accuracy demands it. An exposed hammer provides positive visual and tactile confirmation of action state and the 6-round cylinder maximizes on-board capacity within the small-frame revolver format. At 1.38 lbs and 6.55 inches overall this revolver is well-suited for pocket IWB or ankle carry across a range of everyday carry configurations. Black Altamont gloss wood grips set the Gentleman s Carry apart from standard defensive revolvers with a refined classic aesthetic that complements the high-polish cylinder and matte frame contrast. The grip design positions the hand consistently for controlled recoil management through double-action strings of fire in a compact package rated for +P ammunition. The combination of elegant finishing modern DLC cylinder coating and proven 856 platform reliability makes this revolver equally at home as a carry piece or a display-worthy addition to any collection.
