Manufacturer: Taurus Type: Revolver Model: 85 Caliber: .38 Barrel Length: 2" Optics: Iron Sights ATF Form 4473 Required: Yes Log: 3847 S/N: KP27433 Ref #: P23012179 Notes: A Taurus Model 85 chambered in .38 Special with a 2" barrel and double-action/single-action revolver operation. An ideal choice for concealed carry, defensive use, and recreational shooting, offering compact dimensions and straightforward revolver handling. This compact revolver features a matte stainless steel frame, barrel, and five-shot cylinder paired with a black rubber finger-groove grip. The sighting system consists of fixed iron sights with a ramped front blade and frame-integral rear notch. Controls and functional elements include an exposed hammer, double-action/single-action trigger, left-side cylinder release, swing-out cylinder, and ejector rod. The .38 Special chambering provides a practical balance of manageable recoil, accuracy, and defensive performance. Its broad ammunition selection makes it suitable for range practice and personal-protection applications, though recoil characteristics will vary by load in a short-barreled revolver. Condition appears good overall, with light to moderate scratches, handling marks, and surface wear across the frame, cylinder, barrel, controls, and grip. The cylinder shows a visible rotation line and scattered finish marks, while the rubber grip displays minor scuffing consistent with regular use.
