This revolver was bought as a dresser drawer gun, and I haven’t had use of it in 15 months. My last call was 1-3-20, and they still are on backorder. I turned it around (which cost me $35.00) and they confirmed (after a phone call) everything was all set, except the 856 was on back order and we are moving to Georgia and no we don’t know when they will be in. Problem is the 605 had been shipped and delivered to my FFL. Several days later I contacted them by phone and talked to a rep who was able to get me a 856 which is a 38, but holds 6 rounds.

I wrote a email to the customer service department and got no response. This ticked me off as I had sent back a six shot 357 and was getting a 5 shot with a cheaper MSRP. That’s what your getting, like it or lump it.

They couldn’t fix my gun and were sending me a Taurus 605. I received a box with a prepaid shipping label and sent my gun back. I registered my problem on the website and waited to hear something until July / August of 2019.
