It's the Taurus Ultra-Lite Model 85 .38 SPL Revolver in Stainless.
Yes, I know blue steel is prettier but I live in Florida and it will be for concealed carry. Yes, I know it only has a five round capacity; I'm in a nightmare if I need more. Yes, I know a larger caliber has more stopping power but a .38 with +P will do just fine, and it will be my "everything" piece. I will use it for CC and target. Yes, I want an exposed, external hammer, I just like the control. Yes, I know Smith & Wesson builds a better piece but I'm already stretching my budget for this gun, plus I've had good experiences with Taurus in the past. And yes, I want a revolver; semi-auto's are nice but I like revolvers for all the usual reasons.
What I'd like to know is if anyone here owns one and/or knows anything about them that I don't know or need to know? As I stated, I searched and didn't find anything about this firearm. I'm planning on buying one Friday, provided I have the funds, and I wanted to make sure it's the right decision. I figured if anyone would have some unbiased knowledge about this gun, it would be you guys! (and gals)
Thank you in advance,
-Todd
