Taurus 617

Features

1. Chambered In .357 Magnum — Handles full-power .357 Magnum loads as well as .38 Special and .38 Special +P, giving you serious stopping power and ammunition flexibility.
2. Seven-Shot Cylinder — Taurus' exclusive 7-round cylinder gives you one more round than a standard six-shot revolver without enlarging the frame.
3. 2-Inch Barrel — Short snub-nose barrel keeps the overall length to roughly 6.7 inches for fast handling and easy concealment.
4. Stainless Steel Construction — Solid stainless frame and cylinder in a matte finish stand up to corrosion and heavy Magnum recoil.
5. Double-Action / Single-Action — Run it DA for fast defensive shots or cock the exposed hammer for a lighter single-action trigger pull on precision work.
6. Soft Rubber Ribber Grips — Cushioned rubber grips soak up .357 recoil and lock the gun into your hand during rapid fire.
7. Fixed Low-Profile Sights — Snag-free fixed front and rear sights draw cleanly from concealment and stay zeroed under hard use.
8. Compact Carry Weight — About 28 ounces unloaded — heavy enough to tame Magnum recoil yet light enough for daily concealed carry.
9. Transfer Bar Safety — Internal transfer bar system lets you carry a full seven rounds with confidence.
10. Model Number 2-617029 — Factory configuration with matte stainless finish, ribber grips, and fixed sights, backed by Taurus.
