Default Any Taurus Revolver Experts out there?

I have been unable to identify the model of this handgun. I went to their website but from their pics concluded that this is an older model, as the insignia is now lower on the grip.



Thanks

Do you at least know the caliber? I've narrowed it down to a handful, but without knowing the caliber, I'm unable to provide a final answer.

I got it identified. It's a model 85. Thanks for trying.

Darn! The reason I did not get back to you quickly is because I had to leave for work. I spent about an hour after I got off working on identifying the gun and I also had identified it as the Model 85. Oh well, at least you know now.

It must be an old 85 - the new ones have a very different grip.
