The trend of ever-shrinking .380 ACP handguns has reversed as of late, with more manufacturers acknowledging that “mid-size” .380s are low-recoil and just plain easier to shoot. Taurus is joining that trend by re-introducing for 2025 its Model 58 and by doing so, jumping back into the .380 semi-auto handgun market.

With the 58, Taurus re-introduces a classic, mid-size .380 for concealed carry.

The Taurus 58 brings both shootability and capacity to the .380 world. Not a sub-compact firearm, the new 58 is slightly larger than the original PT58. Approximately the size of popular carry pistols, like the Glock 19, it has a 4” barrel, an overall length of 7.20” and a height of 5.59”. With an aluminum alloy frame, it weighs 29.60 ozs. Its double-column magazine has a capacity of 15 rounds.

With a magazine capacity of 15 rounds, the Taurus 58 is a full-capacity carry gun.

In many ways, the 58 is a 2/3 scale, blowback-operated version of Taurus’ locked breech 9 mm Luger PT92, which the company has manufactured since 1983. The 58 borrows the classic open-top slide design of the 92, with its integrated front sight post and drift adjustable rear sight. It uses a double-action/single-action trigger that sits inside that iconic squared-off triggerguard, along with a frame-mounted, bilateral safety/decocker system that allows the pistol to be carried safely either hammer down or “cocked and locked.”

Patterned from the classic PT92, the Taurus has an open-top slide design and DA/SA trigger.

The Taurus 58 is available in two configurations—a matte-black anodized frame and oxide-finished carbon steel slide, or a polished frame and matte stainless steel slide. It has an MSRP of $605 for the all-black model and $620 for the stainless model. For more information, see the company’s website.
