One of the smartest tricks in the revolver world is packed into the Taurus 692: two quick-swap cylinders that let a single wheelgun run .357 Magnum, .38 Special +P, and 9mm Luger. The swap takes seconds. Press the release button at the front of the trigger guard, pull the .357 cylinder assembly, and drop in the 9mm cylinder. No tools, no gunsmith, no fuss. That means you can practice all afternoon with affordable bulk 9mm, then load up full-house magnums when it counts. Stellar clips come in the box so the rimless 9mm rounds load and eject cleanly.
The longer sight radius on this 6.5 inch model pays off in real accuracy, and the ported barrel takes a noticeable bite out of muzzle rise, especially with stout .357 loads. Reviewers testing the 692 consistently point to how controllable it is compared to other medium-frame magnums, and the porting is a big part of that. A fixed front sight pairs with a fully adjustable rear, which matters more than usual here since three different cartridges will each print a little differently. Dial it in for your preferred load and go.
The DA/SA action gives you a spurred hammer for deliberate single-action shots or a smooth double-action pull when speed matters. Taurus wraps the steel frame in its Ribber grip, a ribbed rubber design that flexes under recoil and keeps your hand cushioned off the frame. It grips well even with sweaty hands and makes magnum loads a lot more pleasant. A transfer bar safety rounds out the package. Carbon steel construction with a matte black finish keeps things understated and durable.
With seven rounds on tap instead of the usual six, this revolver covers a lot of ground: range sessions, home defense duty, a woods companion, or a natural pairing with a .357 lever gun. If you already stock 9mm, this is one of the easiest ways to add a revolver without adding a new caliber to your shelf.
It takes just a few seconds and no tools. Press the cylinder release plunger on the right side of the frame near the front of the trigger guard, slide the cylinder and crane assembly out, and snap the other cylinder in its place. Both cylinders are included with the gun, and each is marked for its caliber.
Taurus includes its Stellar clips for exactly this reason, and they make loading and unloading much faster. You can technically fire 9mm without clips since the cases headspace in the chambers, but the ejector star cannot grab rimless cases, so you would be picking out empties one at a time. Using the clips is the way to go.
Yes, and it is most noticeable with full-power .357 Magnum loads, where testers have reported muzzle rise reduced by roughly a third. With softer .38 Special and 9mm loads the difference is less dramatic since those rounds do not generate much rise to begin with. The tradeoff is a bit more flash and noise, which most folks find worth it with magnum ammo.
The 6.5 inch barrel is the pick for field and hunting work in this lineup. The longer sight radius and extra velocity get more out of .357 Magnum loads, and the adjustable rear sight lets you zero for your specific hunting ammo. It also makes a great companion to a .357 lever-action rifle since they share the same ammunition.
