What’s Included
- Taurus PT-738 TCP .380 ACP pistol
- One 6-round single-stack magazine with finger-extension floorplate (steel body, polymer baseplate)
This PT-738 TCP uses a locked-breech, tilting-barrel design with a belled muzzle for consistent lockup. The internal-hammer, double-action-only system is partially pre-cocked by the slide and does not provide second-strike capability, delivering a smooth, curved trigger pull.
The slide is matte stainless with rear-only serrations and fixed, low-profile integral sights machined into the slide to minimize snag potential. The frame is matte black polymer with molded grip panels featuring the Taurus logo, and the pistol maintains a micro footprint for minimal bulk.
Operating features include a last-round slide hold-open with a manual slide stop and straightforward field-stripping via a slotted takedown pin. Capacity is 6+1, and this pistol comes with a single-stack 6-round magazine equipped with a finger-extension floorplate.
Markings include MIAMI, FL and MADE IN USA. Dimensions and weight are optimized for carry with an approximate 0.87 in width and a 10.2 oz unloaded weight, paired with a 2.84 in stainless barrel.
