Overview

The Taurus 22TUC threaded barrel is a semi-automatic pistol chambered in .22 Long Rifle, featuring a 3.35-inch barrel with factory-installed threading for direct attachment of suppressors or muzzle devices.

This pistol is designed for shooters who prioritize control, modularity, and the cost-effective practice afforded by .22 LR ammunition.
