Now the question is---when will it be available? My guess is not for a while.

I'd be interested in an 856SSUL with a three inch barrel! Are you listening, Taurus USA?

I am beginning to feel like NYPD. Taurus is taking w a y too long between product announcement and street sales.

Hey, I've learned to be realistic when it comes to Taurus.
When they showcase a new product I automatically add 12-18 months before it hits the shelves. (This way I'm not disappointed)

i still can't use something i can't get more than 2 fingers around. i've got a big hand, i'd have to put a hogue on it.

Hey, NYPD - just how far southeast of Phoenix are you? I'm in Bisbee, which is about 250 miles southeast...

Not that far....just about 25 miles in Queen Creek.

Well if anyone wants to get rid of there 605 or comparable revolver let me know.

I'm with Elm Creek Smith. That extra inch hides pretty well and adds precious fps.

Mmm, that would be good. Surely since they offer an 85 with a 3" tube it wouldn't be that much harder to put a 3" barrell on this new model?

Just spoke to Taurus customer service, this model will be available "in the summer" with an MSRP of $419.


CAN'T WAIT!!! CAN'T WAIT!!! CAN'T WAIT!!! CAN'T WAIT!!!

Taurus won't support +P usage with the magnesium revolvers, fyi.
