Taurus 905

About the Taurus 905

The Taurus 905 is a medium-frame revolver chambered in 9x19mm Parabellum, manufactured by Taurus since 2017. Produced at Taurus's modern manufacturing facilities in São Leopoldo, Brazil and their American operations in Bainbridge, Georgia, this firearm reflects Taurus's commitment to delivering reliable firearms at competitive price points. The 5-round cylinder provides standard capacity for revolvers of this size class, while maintaining a compact profile suitable for concealed carry. The 2.0-inch barrel prioritizes concealability over sight radius. At 624g (22.0 oz) unloaded, this lightweight firearm is well-suited for concealed carry without excessive burden. Taurus has positioned this model as a high-value option in the competitive handgun market, offering features and reliability that punch above its price point, making it particularly appealing to first-time gun owners and experienced shooters seeking a reliable secondary firearm.

Taurus's revolver manufacturing expertise traces back to their acquisition of the Smith & Wesson factory in Brazil, giving them access to decades of refined revolver-building knowledge that continues to influence their designs today.

Taurus 905 specifications

The Taurus 905 ships with several moon clips. Moon clips are thin metal pieces that the five 9mm rounds snap into, allowing all rounds to be loaded simultaneously like a speed loader. The clips can be loaded and unloaded by hand with no tools required. The 905 uses the same small-frame design as the Model 85 series but with a cylinder specifically dimensioned for 9mm Parabellum.
