[FIRST LOOK] NEW Taurus 650 Shrouded Hammer CCW .357 Mag Revolver

The Taurus 650, a 5-shot revolver chambered in .357 Magnum, has been reintroduced by Taurus! Featuring a shrouded hammer, this adds to the brand’s lineup of compact revolvers, answering the need for a concealed carry option that is both functional and snag-free.

The return of the Taurus 650 comes in response to requests from shooters seeking a revolver designed for everyday carry with a smooth, Double Action Only (DAO) trigger pull. The internal shrouded hammer ensures quick deployment without the risk of snagging, even when drawn from a pocket or bag.

“This is the ultimate expression of what my friend Darryl Bolke refers to as ‘the snubby lifestyle,’” said Caleb Giddings, Marketing Manager at Taurus USA. “For those who seek a simple, reliable DAO revolver to carry every day, this model provides the perfect solution.”

The Taurus 650 is compatible with a range of existing 5-shot speed loaders and holsters used with similar .357 Magnum models.
