The Taurus 692 6.5-inch matte black model is a seven-shot revolver that shoots .357 Magnum, .38 Special +P and 9mm Luger with the included pair of cylinders (Taurus part no. 2-692061). Taurus fits its Ribber Grip, which aids accuracy, and a ported 6.5-inch barrel to manage recoil. The alloy steel frame carries a matte black finish, and the adjustable rear sight and spurred hammer give you tuning and control. A range-friendly layout from Taurus like this suits informal competition, plinking and hunting backup.

Key Specifications

• Chambering is .357 Magnum / .38 Special +P / 9mm through the two included cylinders, so one revolver covers magnum, .38 Special +P and 9mm Luger shooting.
• The barrel measures 6.5 inches, a long length that adds sight radius and velocity for range and field work.
• Capacity is 7 rounds, a generous count for a revolver of this size.
• The action is double/single action, so you can fire quickly in double action or cock the hammer for a precise single-action shot.
• The 6.5-inch barrel is ported, which Taurus says manages recoil for quicker target re-acquisition.
• Taurus fits its Ribber Grip, which the company says aids accuracy, and two cylinders cover the three chamberings.
• The front sight is a fixed front sight, which is easy to pick up against a target.
• The rear sight is a adjustable rear sight, so you can zero the revolver to your chosen load.
• Frame and cylinder are alloy steel for a rugged build that handles hard use.
• The finish is matte black, which keeps glare down.
