The Taurus 856 Ultra Lite in .38 Special (brand part no. 2-85621ULC30) trims weight from the standard 856 frame while keeping the same six-round capacity, giving concealed carriers a lighter revolver for all-day comfort. Taurus finishes this Ultra Lite in a desert-toned Sabre Sand over a matte black barrel, with a removable serrated blade front sight paired to a fixed rear sight. The double/single action trigger lets the shooter carry hammer-down and fire double action, or thumb-cock for a lighter single-action pull. Among lightweight carry revolvers in the revolvers category, the 856 Ultra Lite favors shooters who want reduced carry weight without giving up capacity.
