I have a Taurus problem

[purdue98]

A bunch of Bull
For years I would dis Taurus, but I’ve had a change of heart, I got the GX4, and loved it, then got the G3C, and I like it too, then I found an orphan Taurus 85, and re homed it….
Sorry to copy your idea Big Moose….

We have a Taurus collection at our residence as well. I have the G2C (heavily modified), 3 x Taurus TX22 even got one for my mom after she shot my wife's. I have the Taurus 1911 with a Clark's Custom match barrel. The Taurus 692 3inch model is also present.

Ok range report… I absolutely love the G2C!!! It shoots good, but one slightly nagging thing… the trigger has an audible click, and you can feel it before the trigger breaks… not a deal breaker. The GX4 was snappy, and it had trigger slap, that was a little painful, but manageable, accuracy was good, but the G2C was great!!!! for me anyway. Picture is 12 yards from a rest, off hand opened up but still good for me, thinking of trading my Alien gear shell for the G2C shell….

Isn’t there a 12 step program for Taurus lovers?

Taurus has really upped their game in the past 5 years, my buddy bought a Taurus 695 in 357/9mm and then a TX22, I'm pretty impressed with the fit, finish and quality.

I hope the barrels don't fall off !

Can you explain how the **** the barrel on a semi-auto is going to "fall off"?

Has something to do with the complete slide falling off of the front of the frame??
I saw it on the "Net" somewhere, but I don't remember where??..Bill.

^^^
Ha..On a Glock 19 no less==Something to do with the slide lock put on backwards??..Bill.

You do not have a problem....yet. Let me know when you have a PT140, with the metal follower. I will warn you though. Around every 8k rounds you will need to tear it down and clean the build up around the firing pin. Otherwise is starts getting miss fires from too light a firing pin strike.

Come to think of it, I did not see you mention any Taurus in the PT line at all.

...you have a problem that needs solved now. Your welcome

Side note. I mostly carry a G3C these days.

He said basically the same thing about my Taurus model 44. After I stated I have over 2,000 full power 44mag rounds through it.

@purdeu98 Do you have the straight or curved? Is there really mush difference in the feel between them?

I won't own a .40, just don't care for the round, when 9 will do the job..and better. I do plan on having a PT-99/92 some day.

I've got a Taurus problem too.I just put 500 down on this.

I enjoy 45, but mostly carry 9mm. My ex was the one who fell in love with the PT140, she still carries it to this day. She is a 40cal addict and loves the round, me not so much.

 

[loudgroove]

well I went and got the .40 version of the G3c (on the left). Has just a tad bit more recoil than the 9. It was the one I originally wanted. Now I have both and very happy with both. And still don't think a I have a Taurus problem. Lol

Taurus makes some good firearms.
They also make not so good as we seen in the 856 thread.
G2c, G3 series, and TX22 are all solid, and that is not only found in research on the internet, but i owe or owned all those and put many rounds through them.
I've seen here on the forums, and internet research that the GX4 is good also.
