The Taurus 605 Protector Polymer revolver combines a compact small-frame design with practical features for personal protection, range use, and everyday carry applications. Chambered for .357 Magnum and .38 Special ammunition, this five-shot revolver offers versatile performance in a lightweight platform. Its matte stainless steel finish provides a subdued appearance and complements the black frame, while the hard rubber grips help promote a secure, comfortable hold during handling and firing. The 2-inch barrel supports a compact profile without sacrificing the utility expected from a .357 Magnum revolver.
Target acquisition is supported by a fixed rear sight and fixed front sight with a red fiber-optic insert. The bright front sight helps provide a clear visual reference in varied lighting conditions, while the fixed sight configuration offers a straightforward, durable setup. A combat-style trigger and combat hammer support the revolver’s practical design, and the 19.75-ounce weight makes it easier to carry than many larger-frame revolvers. Taurus part number 2605029PLY identifies this Protector Polymer configuration.
Safety features include the Taurus Security System and a transfer bar safety, designed to help prevent unintended discharge when the revolver is handled correctly. The five-round cylinder accommodates both .357 Magnum and .38 Special loads, giving users flexibility for practice or defensive applications where legally permitted. With its compact barrel, rubber grips, fiber-optic front sight, and durable finish, the Taurus 605 Protector Polymer delivers a balanced combination of portability, handling, and dependable revolver operation. Follow all applicable laws and safe firearm-handling practices, and use only ammunition appropriate for the revolver.
