Description
Taurus Deputy Dual Cylinder
The Taurus Deputy Dual Cylinder is a revolver built for the shooter who values flexibility at the range and in the field. Chambered to accept both .357 Magnum and .38 Special rounds through one cylinder, and 9mm through the included interchangeable second cylinder, this pistol offers three distinct caliber options from a single frame. Whether you are running full-house magnum loads for hunting or practicing with affordable 9mm ammunition, the taurus deputy dual cylinder adapts to your needs without requiring a second firearm. The matte stainless finish and rubberized grip keep this revolver steady in the hand, even during prolonged sessions at the range.
Overview
The Taurus Deputy Dual Cylinder is a six-shot revolver built on a compact frame that balances concealability with control. It ships with two cylinders: one for .357 Magnum and .38 Special, and a second cylinder specifically for 9mm Luger. This design lets you train with lower-recoil 9mm rounds while retaining the option to load .357 Magnum for personal defense or backcountry trips. The revolver uses a single-action and double-action trigger system, giving you the choice of a light, crisp single-action pull or a heavier double-action stroke for rapid follow-up shots. The overall length measures just under seven inches, and the unloaded weight hovers around 22 ounces, making it easy to carry in a hip holster or a range bag.
Features & Specs
When you pick up the taurus deputy dual cylinder, the first thing you notice is the solid lockup and smooth cylinder release. The factory-tuned trigger breaks cleanly in single-action mode, and the double-action pull stacks predictably. Below are the core specifications and standout features you can expect:
- Caliber compatibility: .357 Magnum, .38 Special, and 9mm through dual interchangeable cylinders. The 9mm cylinder uses moon clips for reliable extraction.
- Barrel length: 2-inch barrel with a recessed crown for consistent accuracy. The front sight is a red fiber optic insert for fast target acquisition in varying light.
- Frame and finish: Stainless steel construction with a matte satin finish that resists rust and holster wear. The rubber grip features a textured insert to anchor your hand under recoil.
Additional specifications include a transfer bar safety system that prevents accidental discharge if the revolver is dropped, and a fluted cylinder that reduces overall weight without sacrificing structural integrity. The cylinder release is a push-button style located on the left side of the frame, allowing for quick reloads with either cylinder installed.
- Overall length: 6.75 inches. Height: 4.8 inches. Width: 1.4 inches at the cylinder.
- Weight: 22 ounces unloaded. The included 9mm cylinder and moon clips add approximately 3 ounces to the package.
- Capacity: 6 rounds per cylinder. The 9mm cylinder requires Taurus-branded moon clips, which are included with the revolver.
Who It’s For
The Taurus Deputy Dual Cylinder is designed for shooters who want one revolver that can handle multiple roles. If you are a reloader, the ability to shoot .38 Special for low-recoil practice and .357 Magnum for serious work means you can tailor your load data to a single platform. The 9mm cylinder is a bonus for those who already stock 9mm ammunition in bulk and want to avoid buying separate caliber-specific guns. This revolver also appeals to left-handed shooters because the cylinder release is ambidextrous-friendly, and the grip frame allows for a high thumb position without interference. It is not a competition gun, but it is a reliable companion for range practice, home defense, or as a trail gun where you might encounter larger animals. The taurus deputy dual cylinder shines brightest for the shooter who values versatility over specialization.
