I wonder...
1. If it has a safety
2. If it has a hammer mounted firing pin
Looks good, and they got the caliber right!

Safety says transfer bar.

Looks like it has a nice finish.

At that price point I could see that with a set of stag grips.

Gotta wonder when they will get to the LGS.

Am I missing something here? “Action Type DA/SA” or is this just a boo boo?
Looks like a single action only.

Looking at the web site up thread it says da sa on the website it also shows a 4.75 in model that says same.

Slick looking. I have the Judge, but it very seldom leaves the house.

I had a kitten and a GSD one time. Started out ok then one day…
I came home and found the GSD dead. The kitten had killed him!
















The kitten got stuck in his throat!




For those in Rio Linda! Lol

I actually like the looks of the Revolver and wouldn’t mind one in .38/.357
How is Taurus’ quality as of late. I know that it’s been hit or miss in the past but I’d like to think that they’ve improved.

They've done a pretty good job on revolvers for a while now.

Maybe western movies will make a comeback, who knows there may even be a digitized John Wayne in the future.

It's listed under SA revolver.

Ya, I opened the specs page to read that, hoping to get further info. But both said da/sa and like you or another said I figured someone messed up the web page.

My thoughts are/were my old trap line gun a H&R looks a lot like a single action but is DA./SA.

Looking at the photos it doesn’t appear to have enough trigger travel to be DA.

Guess time will tell.
