TAURUS 454 RAGING BULL Handers The American Rifleman has used the phrase “Dope Bag” at least since 1921, when Col. Townsend Whelen first titled his column with it. Even then, it had been in use for years, referring to a sack used by target shoot- ers to hold ammunition and accessories on the firing line.“Sight dope”also was a traditional marksman’s term for sight adjustment information, while judging wind speed and direction was called “doping the wind.” CAUTION: Technical data and information con- tained herein are intended to provide information based on the limited experience of individuals under specific conditions and circumstances.

Left-handed staff members found it necessary to switch hands and open the cylinder as if they were right-handed. Like with Taurus’ Model 445 (August 1997, p. 45), the Model 454 Raging Bull has a fluted, five-shot cylinder with .08"- deep locking bolt cuts arranged between the chambers. This arrangement maintains the integrity of the chamber walls that are .105" thick at their thinnest point. Taurus’ engineers didn’t stop after designing a gun that could handle the .454 Casull cartridge—they went on to design a gun in which the average shooter could han- dle the .454 as well. To that end, the Model 454 has a massive barrel, available in Since 1955, the .44 Mag. has been the most power- 1 3 either 6 ⁄2" or 8 ⁄8" lengths, with a full- ful factory cartridge chambered in a mass-produced dou- ble-action revolver.

    TAURUS® EXPORT PRODUCT CATALOG VOL. 1 From humble beginnings and a commitment to achieving a vision often comes great success. Such was the case with Taurus Armas, S.A. What started as a small pre-WWII machining operation founded as Forjas Taurus Ltda. (Taurus Forge) in the Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Sul has now become one of the largest small arms producers in the world. Since 1942, when Forjas Taurus created the company’s first revolver, the Model 38101SO, the company has steadily Item No: 10021894 capitalized on newly available material and machining technologies as well as invested in the most valued resource of all— the recruitment and development of skilled local labor forces in both South America and in the United States. This forward- thinking, infrastructure-first approach to the design, engineering, manufacturing, and distribution of firearms has resulted in the company’s diverse portfolio of premium handguns, ISO 9001 certification, and has made Taurus a valued partner to the local communities in which the company enjoys operational and manufacturing bases. Now, almost 80 years after manufacturing that first landmark revolver, Taurus stands as one of the major handgun brands in the world, with products serving professional defense forces, law enforcement, personal defense practitioners, competitive shooters, target shooters, and hunters alike. Furthermore, Taurus has earned coveted industry recognition with numerous accolades accepted for “Manufacturer of the Year”, “Handgun of the Year”, and “Golden Bullseye” awards from key industry associations and respected firearm media entities. In the last several years, especially, Taurus has further cemented its reputation for technology and design innovations with groundbreaking firearms such as the Judge, Taurus Raging Hunter, and the new Taurus G3.

TAURUS SECURITY SYSTEM™ The Taurus Revolver is equipped with the exclusive “Taurus Security System.” The system is designed to preclude use of the revolver when the mechanism is engaged. It consists of an integral Fig. A mechanism located in the frame (Fig. A),or in the hammer: top (Fig. B), back (Fig. C). When properly engaged by use of the key, it prevents the functioning of the revolver. The engagement of the mechanism can only be done Fig. B utilizing a special key that fits the activation pin. Engagement (Secure) To engage the system, it is necessary to insert the key into the activation pin and turn it clockwise until Fig. C a “click” is felt or heard (Fig. 1a). In this position, the revolver’s mechanism is locked and the pin protrudes above the surface of the frame or of the hammer (Fig. 1b). Disengagement (Ready-to-Fire) To place the revolver in a firing condition, you must insert the key in the security mechanism pin and Fig. 1A turn the key counter-clockwise (Fig. 2a).
