This video review focuses on the Taurus Model 85, a lightweight and budget-friendly .38 Special revolver that serves as an alternative to more expensive scandium-framed options like the S&W 340/360 series. The reviewer highlights its aluminum frame, stainless cylinder, and a weight of around 17 ounces. While acknowledging its lower build quality and trigger smoothness compared to Smith & Wesson counterparts, the Model 85 is presented as a capable and concealable option for self-defense and as a backup gun for law enforcement. The video also mentions potential reliability issues reported by some users and recommends alternatives like the S&W Bodyguard and Centennial models. The reviewer assigns a 'Nutnfancy Likeability Scale' rating of 5 out of 10.
