Introducing one of the first ever optics ready small frame revolvers, the Taurus 856 T.O.R.O. This revolver is milled at the factory to accept the optics plate designed specifically for this application. The plate itself accepts compact red dots designed for the Holosun K footprint. For example, you could take this new 856 T.O.R.O. and mount the Holosun EPS Carry on it and be ready to roll. The advantages to a red dot on a revolver are significant. Obviously, red dot sights are easier for many people to shoot. Additionally, a red dot can be zeroed to a specific grain weight or type of ammo, which wasn’t an option with a traditional fixed sight revolver. The 856 T.O.R.O. is based on the incredibly popular Defender series from Taurus. It features an all steel construction, three inch barrels, and a replaceable front sight. The triggers are Taurus’ excellent double action/single action trigger, which provides a smooth but fast pull in double action for serious defensive shooting.
