The Taurus 605 Executive Grade .357 Magnum revolver is a compact, hand-tuned defensive option built for shooters who want a reliable small-frame revolver without compromise. With its 3" barrel and 5-round capacity, this is a genuine pocket and carry gun—the kind that rides comfortably in an IWB holster or ankle rig when the mission calls for deep concealment. The polished stainless steel construction and presentation-grade wood grips give it a refined look that stands out in the revolver case, but make no mistake: this is a working gun designed to shoot, not just sit pretty.
What makes the 605 EX Grade different is the attention to detail. The trigger comes hand-tuned from the factory, giving you a cleaner, more predictable press than mass-produced alternatives. The front sight features a brass insert for better contrast in varied light, while the fixed rear sight is straightforward and durable. An extended ejector rod means faster, more reliable reloads—a feature that matters when seconds count. Like all modern Taurus revolvers, the transfer bar safety prevents discharge if the gun is dropped, and the gun handles both potent .357 Magnum loads and milder .38 Special ammunition, including +P variants, so you can tailor your load to your carry comfort and use case.
The compact frame accepts standard 5-shot speed loaders, so you're not locked into proprietary gear. At just 23.5 ounces unloaded and 7.5 inches overall, it's light enough for all-day carry and handy enough for shooting accurately under stress. Whether you're looking for a backup gun, a CCW revolver, or a no-nonsense trail companion, the 605 EX Grade delivers proven revolver reliability in a size that actually disappears in a waistband holster.
