Known for its easily managed recoil impulse, the .38 Special round of the 856 can accommodate ammunition ranging from light target loads to self-defense rounds. The DA/SA action and 2-inch barrel on the 856 optimizes on-body or off-body carry, and home defense usage.

Taurus® 856 Ultra-Lite Revolver conceals well and packs a punch, with a full 6-round cylinder. The 856 Ultra-Lite features an alloy frame, and a steel barrel, and cylinder. The exterior metal has a matte finish. Textured, rubber grips absorb recoil and enhance user control. A fixed, ramp front sight and a fixed, groove rear sight acquire quickly, and interfere minimally when drawing the weapon from a holster, pocket, or purse. An exposed hammer allows you to cock and fire the revolver in single-action mode for precision accuracy, or fire instinctively in double-action mode. A transfer bar safety mechanism prevents the hammer from striking the firing pin unless the trigger is pulled fully to the rear. The 856 Ultra-Lite also utilizes the Taurus Security System (TSS), enabling you to disable the weapon completely with the turn of a key. The 856 Ultra-Lite Double/Single Action Revolver is an affordable and reliable self-defense gun that’s easy to learn how to operate, and quick to deploy in an emergency.
