Introducing the Taurus 650: A Resurgence of the Classic Shrouded Hammer Revolver for Modern Personal Protection

With the growing popularity of small-frame revolvers for personal defense, Taurus—a leader in revolver innovation—proudly reintroduces the Taurus 650, a true shrouded hammer, 5- shot revolver chambered in the venerable .357 Magnum. This expertly engineered firearm joins Taurus’s
industry-leading lineup of reliable and versatile small-frame revolvers, answering the call for a compact, snag-free defensive option.

Designed for Concealment and Reliability

Experienced shooters and new revolver owners alike have been asking for the return of a shrouded hammer revolver designed for concealed carry, and Taurus has answered. The Taurus 650 offers a smooth, Double Action Only (DAO) trigger pull with an internal shrouded hammer, making it the ultimate choice for everyday carry and quick deployment in critical situations, even allowing the revolver to be fired from pocket concealment without fouling or
jamming the action.

“This is the ultimate expression of what my friend Darryl Bolke refers to as ‘the snubby lifestyle’,” said Caleb Giddings, Manager of Marketing, Taurus USA. “Some people want a simple, reliable DAO revolver they can carry every day, and this gun answers that need perfectly.”

The Taurus 650 is compatible with a variety of existing 5-shot speed loaders and holsters for similar .357 Magnum models, making it versatile and user-friendly for both experienced shooters and new users alike.

Key Features of the Taurus 650:

  • Durable Steel or Stainless Steel Frame: Built to withstand rigorous use, the Taurus 650’s steel or stainless steel frame provides the durability needed for both daily carry and extended shooting sessions.
  • Double Action Only (DAO) Trigger System: The 650’s DAO trigger offers a smooth and consistent pull, enhancing shooting precision and reliability in high-stress environments.
  • Five-Shot Cylinder Chambered in.357 Magnum / .38 Spl +P: The Taurus 650 is chambered to handle up to .357 Magnum, allowing it to also fire .38 Special and .38 Special +P loads, providing flexibility in ammunition choice.
  • Shrouded Hammer for Snag-Free Concealment: The internal shrouded hammer ensures a seamless draw from concealment, minimizing snags and enabling easy operation even from a pocket or bag.
  • Removable Serrated Blade Front Sight: The blade front sight is serrated to reduce glare and allow for quick accuracy in all lighting conditions. The front sight is also removable, allowing it to be swapped out to meet your personal preference
