The Taurus 608, part number 2-608049, is a large-frame revolver chambered for .357 Magnum and .38 Special ammunition. Its matte stainless steel finish provides a durable, low-glare appearance, while the 4-inch ported barrel is designed to help manage muzzle movement during firing. With an 8-round cylinder, this revolver offers increased capacity compared with traditional six-shot revolver designs while maintaining the familiar handling and reliability of a double-action platform.
The Taurus 608 features a large stainless steel frame, rubber grips, and a combat-style trigger and hammer. Rubber grips provide a secure, comfortable hold, while the ported barrel and balanced construction support controlled handling. The fixed front sight and adjustable rear sight allow sight alignment to be tuned for individual preferences and ammunition, making the revolver suitable for range use, training, and lawful defensive applications where permitted.
A Taurus Security System and transfer bar safety are integrated into the design for added peace of mind during proper storage and handling. The barrel uses a 1:16.5 twist with six grooves, and the revolver weighs approximately 45 ounces. The Taurus 608 is built for shooters seeking a stainless .357 Magnum revolver with an 8-round capacity, adjustable sights, rubber grips, and a ported barrel. Firearm sales, transfer requirements, and shipping restrictions vary by location; buyers are responsible for complying with all applicable federal, state, and local laws.
