Product Overview

The Taurus 856 Ultra Lite .38 Special revolver is a compact, lightweight wheelgun built for shooters who need reliable backup protection or an everyday carry revolver that won't slow you down. With a 2-inch barrel, 6-round capacity, and a featherweight 16-ounce frame, this snub-nose handles .38 Special and .38 Special +P ammunition — enough stopping power in a package you'll actually keep on you. Whether you're looking for a truck gun, a deep-carry option, or a backup to your primary, the 856 Ultra Lite delivers Taurus's proven revolver dependability in a size that works for serious carry.

The revolver pairs a steel barrel and cylinder with a durable blued finish for corrosion resistance. The aluminum frame, anodized for protection against wear and weather, keeps overall weight down without sacrificing rigidity. The serrated front sight and channel rear sight are straightforward and functional — they're not fancy, but they're easy to acquire in low light or high stress. Polymer grips provide a secure, comfortable hold, and the gun runs both double-action and single-action trigger modes, giving you flexibility in how you shoot it.

At 16 ounces, this is one of the lightest .38 revolvers available, making it ideal for ankle holster rigs, pocket carry in larger jackets, or purse carry for backup. The 2-inch barrel keeps it short enough to clear quickly from a holster while still supporting reliable velocity for defensive loads. Six rounds of .38 Special +P give you adequate capacity for a revolver platform. This is no-frills, no-nonsense defensive firearm — the kind of gun that stays where you put it because it's light enough to forget you're carrying.

Firearm Shipments:

To buy rifles or shotguns, you must be 18 years old, and for handguns, actions, or receivers, the minimum age is 21. By placing an order for this firearm, you confirm that you are the legitimate transferee/buyer, meet the legal age requirements, and comply with all Federal, State, and local laws and regulations necessary to purchase this firearm.

We only ship firearms to valid Federal Firearms License (FFL) holders. At checkout we provide a FFL locator for your convenience.

We will need a copy of the FFL’s license to facilitate the process, kindly request your dealer to email us a copy of their FFL, as we cannot dispatch the firearm until we receive this document. It is imperative for the buyer to choose their FFL dealer, ensure they are willing to facilitate the transfer, and have them email their FFL copy to BOSQUE Outdoors. To avoid any confusion, the customer's name or order number must be mentioned in the email containing the FFL.
