Taurus 327 Defender TORO

[Lon]

Smith should pay attention.

It should be a 7 shot. Or is it and it broke before the 7th shot?

LMAO! Good one! I'm betting "Some People" won't be amused, however...

A 3" small frame .32 with tritium front sound pretty cool to me.

[PTSDog]

Isn’t the 327 just as big and even heavier than a regular weighted 856? Might be great for competition.

Good joke.

But that's a small frame gun and .327Mag is 10k PSI more max than .357Mag. So, it's just not viable.

If they'd done it as .32 h&r mag it could be a 7-shooter.

Ohhhh this is a medium frame model?

Ohhhh this is a medium frame model?

And, as I said on DB's place, if this is a medium-frame gun, then the gun doesn't pass the "so, what" test. A medium frame six-shot revolver exists, our beloved K-frames. Light loads? Wadcutters. Medium recoil loads? .38 standard-pressure. Git-R-Done loads? .38+P and .357.

Maybe if they had limited it to .32 H&R Magnum and fit in seven chambers, they'd have something distinctive. But with six, I don't see what this gun offers that a .38 doesn't do better (and cheaper).

As the guy at the card table says: Change my mind.

It is listed on Taurus' website as a small frame revolver; it appears to be the same frame size as the Taurus 856. I'm looking forward to an alloy frame version.
