A compact and lightweight pistol that hides as easily behind a cummerbund as a pair of bibs, the Model 709 Slim Semi-Auto Pistol from Taurus® hides with no revealing lumps or lines. Less than an inch thick, the 709 Slim combines a lightweight polymer frame, steel slide, and checkered polymer grip for easy control and handling. Loaded chamber indicator raises to readily reveal when a cartridge is chambered for easy visual verification. PT 24/7 Pro Trigger system sets in single action mode when a round is chambered and resets to double action mode afterwards until the next round is chambered. Rear grooves on slide for easy cocking. Fixed sights.
