The Taurus 856CH is a compact .38 Special double-action revolver with a six-shot cylinder and a two-inch barrel. Its concealed hammer and stainless and silver finish sit on a steel frame, and rubber grips are fitted. The revolver weighs 22.2 ounces and measures 6.5 inches overall. Fixed sights keep the aiming system simple, and no manual safety is fitted.
The concealed hammer reduces snagging during presentation from a holster or under cover garments, which suits everyday carry. A six-round cylinder and double-action trigger make it a practical defensive choice. The compact profile fits a shooter who wants a small revolver for personal protection. The steel frame and stainless finish give durable construction, and fixed sights provide a simple, snag-resistant aiming system.
