If you are looking for a lightweight, suppressor-ready pistol that nails the balance between range fun and everyday practicality, the Taurus 22TUC Threaded Barrel deserves a close look. This .22 LR semi-auto brings a lot of modern thinking to a classic platform, with a threaded barrel that opens up options for quieter shooting or muzzle devices.

Overview

The Taurus 22TUC Threaded Barrel is a striker-fired pistol built around the reliable .22 Long Rifle cartridge. It features a compact polymer frame with an ergonomic grip texture, a crisp trigger, and—most notably—a factory-threaded barrel that accepts standard 1/2×28 accessories. This means you can easily attach a suppressor, compensator, or thread protector right out of the box, without any aftermarket work. It is a purpose-built rimfire pistol that keeps things simple, reliable, and ready for action.

Features & Specs

Every detail on the Taurus 22TUC is designed to make shooting more enjoyable and less fussy. The threaded barrel is the headline act, but the supporting specs are just as solid.

• Barrel: 3.84-inch threaded barrel with 1/2×28 threads and a factory-installed thread protector
• Action: Striker-fired with a smooth, consistent trigger pull

Beyond the numbers, this pistol includes a loaded chamber indicator, a manual safety for added peace of mind, and a Picatinny rail for mounting lights or lasers. The magazine release is reversible for left-handed shooters, and the fiber optic front sight makes for quick target acquisition in varied lighting.

One of the best things about the Taurus 22TUC threaded barrel model is how well it cycles standard velocity and high-velocity .22 LR ammunition. It eats bulk packs without complaint, which is exactly what you want in a rimfire pistol built for range days and plinking.
