TAURUS m650

Overview

Taurus 650 CIA Hammerless .357 Mag DescriptionThe Taurus 650 CIA Hammerless is a compact .357 Magnum revolver built around concealed carry. The fully concealed hammer eliminates snag on the draw, and the double-action-only trigger keeps operation simple in a high-stress moment. Key Specifications Manufacturer Name: Taurus Model: 650 Series: CIA Hammerless GSIN: TRSNT-7YXJL27O Caliber: .357 Mag. Barrel Length: 2 inches Capacity: 5 rounds Total Length: 6.5 inches Finish: Blue Action Type: Double action Stock Material: Rubber Grip Sights General: Front: Ramp; Rear: Notched MSRP: $539.06 Detailed Features At 6.5 inches overall, the 650 disappears under a cover garment without much effort. The .357 Magnum caliber gives it real stopping power for its size, though recoil in a light snubby is noticeable -- .38 Special +P is a reasonable practice load. The rubber grip absorbs some of that recoil and keeps the gun from shifting during rapid strings. Ramp front and notched rear sights are basic but sufficient at defensive distances. The double-action trigger requires a deliberate pull before each shot, which is appropriate for a carry gun with no external safety.
