The Taurus 856 Ultra Lite is purpose-built for those who demand reliability without compromise in a personal defense package. This compact revolver represents the practical intersection of firepower, concealability, and shootability.
The 856 Ultra Lite features a small-frame design with an aluminum alloy frame that keeps overall weight to just 15.7 ounces—light enough for all-day carry without fatigue. The matte black finish on both barrel and cylinder resists corrosion and glare. Gray VZ Cyclone grips provide excellent purchase and control, even in demanding conditions.

The double/single action trigger allows deliberate first shots and fast follow-ups. The transfer bar safety ensures the gun won't fire if dropped. Fixed sights mean nothing to break or snag during the draw.
