What Is the Taurus 669 VR?

The \"669\" is a medium-frame revolver made by Taurus, chambered in .357 Magnum.
The \"VR\" suffix stands for Vented Rib — this variant has a vented barrel rib (grooved on top) and a full under-lug. According to users, that distinguishes it from other 669 models.
It was produced in the 1980s and early 1990s; later, Taurus changed the model number to 689 for similar designs.
It’s often compared to the Smith & Wesson K-frame in terms of size and handling.
