Manufacturer: Taurus Type: Pistol Model: PT 38S Caliber: 38 Spl Barrel Length: 4" Optics: N/A ATF Form 4473 Required: Yes Log: 2582 Serial Number (S/N): LYC64797 Reference Number (Ref #): N/A The Taurus PT 38S, a semi-automatic pistol introduced by Taurus International, builds on the Brazilian manufacturer’s reputation for affordable, practical firearms since its founding in 1939. Chambered in 38 Special, the PT 38S emerged as part of Taurus’s PT series, designed for concealed carry and personal defense with a focus on simplicity and reliability. Offering a modern twist on the classic 38 Special round, it appeals to shooters seeking a lightweight, magazine fed alternative to traditional revolvers. This example, serial number LYC64797, features a 4" barrel chambered in 38 Special, paired with a double action / single action trigger system for versatile operation. It comes with two magazines, typically holding ten rounds each, a distinctive feature for a semi-auto in this caliber. The pistol includes a polymer frame, fixed sights, and a stainless or blued finish - depending on the variant - weighing approximately 30 ounces and measuring about 7.5" overall. Its semi-auto action provides smooth cycling and a consistent trigger pull for range or defensive use. In good condition, this Taurus PT 38S shows moderate wear consistent with typical use, yet remains fully functional, with its magazines enhancing its practicality. Manufactured circa 2012, based on the "LYC" prefix aligning with Taurus’s early 2010s serial patterns for U.S. imports, it reflects a relatively recent production run. With its two magazines and case friendly design, this pistol offers a solid option for shooters or collectors interested in a unique 38 Special semi-auto.
