The Taurus 605 T.O.R.O. is a red-dot ready revolver milled at the factory to accept an optics plate. The plate itself is compatible with red-dots designed for the Holosun K footprint, such as the Holosun EPS Carry.

The 605 T.O.R.O. features all-steel construction, a three-inch barrel and a replaceable front sight. Its DA/SA trigger provides a balance between smoothness and speed in a defensive scenario, while the .357 Magnum chambering makes it fully capable of performing as a protection firearm in the backcountry.
