Taurus has thrown its hat into the competition revolver ring with the Taurus 608 Competition, the company’s first revolver built specifically for competitive shooting.
If you’re into USPSA or ICORE revolver categories, this gun is designed to perform straight out of the box, with no need for expensive aftermarket modifications.
The Taurus 608 Competition is all about speed and precision. The 8-round capacity and moon clip cut ensure fast reloads and plenty of firepower.
The custom-tuned trigger allows shooters to adjust the trigger themselves without needing a gunsmith. That’s a rare feature in out-of-the-box firearms, and even better, it’s all covered under Taurus’ lifetime warranty. With the trigger being so easily adjustable, you can fine-tune your performance with minimal effort and no risk to your warranty.
