Detailed Features 

The 9mm chambering is notable in a revolver. It uses moon clips to feed the rimless cartridge, which also allows fast reloading. The stainless steel frame handles moisture exposure well. Fixed front and rear sights are appropriate for the close-range self-defense role. The DA/SA action gives you the choice of double-action fire for speed or single-action for a lighter trigger pull. 
 

Usage 

The Model 905's main selling point is pairing a familiar defensive caliber (9mm) with revolver reliability and simplicity. At 22.2 oz with a 2-inch barrel it's a carry-capable gun. Moon clip reloads are faster than standard revolver ejection when practiced, which partially offsets the 5-round capacity.

The Taurus 905 Stainless in 9mm draws a mix of positive feedback and measured criticism.

Owners consistently appreciate the compact size and the stainless finish, which holds up well and looks clean. The 9mm chambering in a revolver format is a deliberate choice that appeals to people who want revolver simplicity with a caliber they're already familiar with or for which they already own ammunition. Handling and recoil are described as manageable.

Critical feedback tends to focus on the 5-round capacity. Compared to 9mm semi-automatics that hold 10+ rounds, five shots is a real limitation for a defensive gun. Trigger feel gets mixed reviews, with some finding it acceptable and others wanting a lighter or smoother pull. The moon clip requirement for 9mm is occasionally flagged as something buyers should know about and practice with before relying on the gun defensively.
