The Taurus 850 .38 Special is a purpose-built snub-nose revolver designed for shooters who prioritize discreet everyday carry without sacrificing reliability. This compact 5-shot revolver chambers the proven .38 Special cartridge, delivering manageable recoil in a self-defense platform that's been trusted for generations. With its 2-inch barrel and matte stainless steel construction throughout, the 850 delivers the durability and corrosion resistance serious carriers demand, while keeping overall dimensions tight enough to disappear under a shirt or jacket.
The shrouded hammer is purpose-engineered for a snag-free draw—critical when seconds count. The double-action-only (DAO) trigger system ensures consistent, predictable performance from first shot to last; there's no manual safety to fumble and no single-action option to complicate your muscle memory. The serrated front sight blade and fixed rear sight are straightforward iron sights built for close-quarters accuracy, and the removable front sight offers users who want to customize their setup some flexibility down the road.
At 22.75 ounces unloaded and measuring just 7.66 inches overall, the 850 is built on a small frame that's genuinely concealable. The 5-round cylinder accepts common speed loaders and holsters designed for small-frame revolvers, so you're not locked into proprietary gear. Whether you're a revolver purist, a backup gun carrier, or someone who values the simplicity and reliability of a wheel gun for personal defense, the Taurus 850 delivers proven .38 Special performance in a practical, no-nonsense package.

Yes. At 7.66 inches overall and 22.75 ounces, the 850 is compact and lightweight enough for genuine concealment. The shrouded hammer won't snag on clothing during the draw, and the streamlined profile minimizes printing under a cover garment.
The 5-shot cylinder is compatible with speed loaders and holsters designed for small-frame revolvers. Since the 850 follows standard small-frame dimensions, you'll have good options in the aftermarket without being locked into proprietary gear.
Double-action only (DAO) means the trigger performs the full firing cycle—cocking and releasing the hammer—with each pull. There's no separate single-action mode or manual safety to manipulate under stress. This keeps operation simple and consistent, which is valuable for a defensive revolver.
Yes, the front sight is removable, which allows you to customize or replace it if needed. The rear sight is fixed.
