Adding the new Yoke Detent system has allowed us to add extra length to the cylinder ejector rod, which enables much more positive extraction of fired cases than previous short-design snubnose revolver ejector rods. Taurus Total Titanium - Every Component that should be made of titanium, is. As a metal alloy, titanium can only be hardened to a certain extent, then it becomes brittle. The operating parts of a revolver action need to be hardened beyond that threshold. Taurus Total Titanium revolvers have forged titanium barrels with high tensile strength stainless bore liners.
Titanium is much more elastic than steel.
This makes it extremely durable, but this very elasticity means an all-titanium barrel will not hold rifling. Our high tensile strength stainless steel-sleeved titanium barrels solve that problem, retaining the weight advantage and corrosion resistance of titanium, and permit the barrels to be ported. Taurus Total Titanium revolvers are an Integrated Shooting System, and the titanium construction is just one of the key components in the overall design.
