Taurus 22TUC .22 LR Micro-Compact 9rd | 1-22TUC13BL

The Taurus 22TUC is a micro-compact .22 LR pistol that emphasizes low weight and straightforward operation. It features a tip-up barrel to simplify loading without racking the slide, a double-action-only trigger intended to provide a consistent hammer strike for rimfire ignition, and a nine-round magazine for increased capacity in a small package. The pistol pairs well with a low-profile pistol red dot such as a Holosun 507K for quick sight acquisition while keeping the sighting system compact and under $1000. Typical applications include everyday concealed carry where minimal weight matters and range/target practice for economical shooting.
