The Taurus 605 357 Magnum revolver delivers full-power magnum performance in a compact, carry-friendly package. This small-frame revolver chambers both .357 Magnum and .38 Special +P cartridges, providing versatility for different shooting applications. The 2-inch barrel maintains excellent balance while ensuring reliable ignition and consistent accuracy.
What Makes This Different
The 605's stainless steel construction extends beyond surface treatment to include the barrel, cylinder, and frame for superior corrosion resistance. Unlike many budget revolvers that use carbon steel with stainless coating, this model features through-hardened stainless steel components. The transfer bar safety system prevents accidental discharge if dropped, while still allowing smooth double-action trigger operation. Walnut grips provide natural texture and absorb recoil better than synthetic alternatives.Key Features
