The Taurus 605 Protector: Serious Defense in a Compact Package
The Taurus 605 Protector revolver represents a thoughtful approach to personal defense. Built on Taurus's Zero Tolerance standard—meaning every component is held to exacting performance standards—this five-shot revolver delivers reliability in a package weighing just 20 ounces.
Design and Construction
The 605 features a lightweight polymer frame paired with a steel cylinder and barrel, creating an ideal balance between durability and portability. The matte black oxide finish resists corrosion while maintaining a professional appearance. The black rubber grip provides secure purchase under stress, and the generous hammer profile ensures positive control during operation.
Sights and Handling
Fixed sights keep the design simple and robust. The fiber optic front sight gathers ambient light for quick target acquisition in varied lighting conditions, while the fixed rear sight provides a reliable reference point. This sight arrangement is proven effective for defensive distances.
