Taurus’  lightest concealed carry gun, the Taurus PT738 TCP .380 ACP Semiautomatic Pistol gives you trust self-defense firepower that weighs just 10.2 oz. when empty. This compact semi-auto combines a lightweight and durable polymer frame with a steel action and slide topped with low-profile fixed sights. Checkered polymer grips feature a series of grooves for easier handling, control, and accuracy. Rounded edges throughout help resist snagging while drawing. DAO action. The PT738 is a seven-shot polymer-framed .380 caliber semi-automatic pistol designed for nearly undetectable concealed carry—one that still provides an adequate level of power for use as a defensive firearm. It, like the other micro .380s on the market, relies on a compact locked-breech design rather than a massive blowback operating system used on earlier .380 pistols like the Walther PPK.
