Taurus builds the 22TUC with a tip-up barrel that eliminates the need to rack the slide for loading, and the double-action-only trigger mirrors a defensive revolver’s heavy hammer strike for reliable rimfire ignition while still cycling smoothly. Fixed orange dot sights speed up target acquisition, and the 9+1 capacity gives shooters extra rounds on tap.
