The Taurus 856 Ultra-Lite revolver, part number 2856021ULCH, is a compact personal-defense handgun chambered in .38 Special +P. Its small-frame design provides a practical balance of carry convenience, handling, and dependable operation, making it well suited for concealed carry, home protection, and training applications. The lightweight construction helps reduce carry fatigue while maintaining the familiar simplicity of a double-action revolver platform.
The revolver features a matte black anodized frame paired with a matte carbon steel cylinder and a blued barrel finish. A concealed hammer gives the Taurus 856 Ultra-Lite a smooth exterior profile and helps reduce the potential for snagging during presentation from a holster or other secure carry method. The rubber grip provides a comfortable, secure hold and helps manage felt recoil when firing standard or +P .38 Special ammunition appropriate for the firearm.
Sighting is handled by a serrated ramp front sight and fixed rear sight, offering a straightforward sight picture for close-range defensive use and routine practice. The combat-style trigger supports consistent operation, while the six-round cylinder provides ready access to the revolver's full capacity. Buyers should review all applicable federal, state, and local laws before purchase or transfer. This firearm is not available for direct shipment to California and must be transferred through a properly licensed dealer where required.
