The Taurus 692 Multi-Caliber Revolver delivers unprecedented versatility by firing three different cartridges from a single platform. This innovative design includes two interchangeable cylinders, allowing shooters to switch between 9mm Luger, .38 Special +P, and .357 Magnum without additional tools or modifications.
What Makes This Different
Unlike traditional revolvers limited to one cartridge family, the Taurus 692 system provides true multi-caliber capability through precision-engineered cylinder technology. The dual-cylinder design maintains proper headspace and timing across all three calibers, eliminating the accuracy compromises found in universal chamber systems. This approach reduces ammunition costs while maximizing training opportunities and tactical flexibility.
Key Features
- Dual cylinder system accommodates 9mm Luger, .38 Special +P, and .357 Magnum cartridges
- 6.5-inch ventilated rib barrel optimizes velocity and sight radius for precision shooting
- Seven-round capacity exceeds standard six-shot revolvers by 16%
- Matte black steel construction resists corrosion and reduces glare
- Ribbed rubber grip provides secure control during rapid fire sequences
- Transfer bar safety system prevents accidental discharge from impact
- Tool-free cylinder exchange completed in under 30 seconds
The extended barrel length generates higher velocities across all calibers while the ventilated rib dissipates heat during extended shooting sessions. Competition shooters benefit from the consistent trigger pull and sight alignment, while the multi-caliber capability allows practice with affordable 9mm ammunition before switching to full-power .357 Magnum loads. The robust steel frame handles maximum pressure loadings without timing issues or excessive wear.
