Design & Performance

The 856's snubnose barrel makes it exceptionally easy to carry in a pocket, waistband, or ankle holster. The 6-shot cylinder provides more capacity than traditional 5-shot snubnose revolvers, giving you an extra round of .38 Special ammunition without increasing size significantly.

The rose gold and graphite black finish combination offers both aesthetic appeal and practical corrosion resistance. The double-action trigger is smooth and manageable, while the single-action option provides precision for deliberate shots.
