This is a standard snubnosed 38sp capable of shooting +P ammo. A classic close in handgun for concealed carry self defense.

This pistol has a lot of snap when shooting 38sp+P ammo, but once you get used to it, it's managable.
It will shoot semi-wadcutters in 38sp with a lot less recoil. It is accurate for a snubby.
Unfotunantly this gun fired about 150rds of 38sp and 15 rds of 38sp+P, then the cylinder locked up.
After two attempts of my gunsmith to resolve the problem, it was sent back to Taurus. They have had it for 6 months now.
Becuase this gun failed after so few shots I cannot give it a high rating. If Taurus sends my gun back and it works perfectly I still will have trouble rating it highly. A gun must go bang!
