Designed for EDC, personal & home defense and range work, the Taurus 692 is a 7-shot DA/SA revolver with either a three-inch or 6.5-inch barrel. With both options, you can change the caliber from .38 Special +P/.357 Mag. to 9mm Luger by simply swapping out the cylinder. The 692 also sports adjustable rear sights, a spurred hammer and Taurus’ “Ribber” grip. The ported barrel manages recoil for faster target acquisition, and the gun is shipped with two of the company’s “Stellar” moon clips. MSRP: $659.

The Model 856, meanwhile, is a 6-shot .38 Special DA/SA revolver with a two-inch barrel. Touted as being suited for on-body or off-body carry and home defense usage, it features soft rubber grips; matte blue or matte stainless finish; OAL of 6.55 inches; weight of 22.10 ounces; height of 4.8 inches; and serrated front ramp and fixed rear sights. Its .38 Special round can accommodate ammo ranging from light target loads to self-defense rounds, the presser says. MSRP: 329.
