First Look: Taurus Curve | Guns & Ammo

No iron sights. Curved grip. Built in light and laser. This should be interesting.

I actually said out loud "what the **** is that?"

I'll pass. But if I did want one it's a good thing I'm not left handed

No thanks lol

for 200 bucks, sure, for 400, no way in hell.

Looks like the civilian Taser or that Kimber self defense thingy. Does it curve the other way for lefties? Or can you bend it to fit? I can see it now, heat gun and bend to fit gunsmiths popping up everywhere!

Toaster oven, 350 degrees, 10 minutes, bend to suit....

Just found this. (Yes I know it's from Cheaper than Dirt but I ain't paying to watch it.)

Caleb did a write-up on it at GunNuts and it pretty much sums it up. The answer to a question nobody was asking.

Rounded edges probably make for less painful deep deep carry.

Looks like they had the engineers ( and I use the term loosely) that designed the Pontiac Aztek and the Honda Element contribute. ( or Pontiac A**crack and Honda Excrement)

This gun is the the answer to a problem no one has.......EDIT: I see someone beat me to it.

To say no one has a problem concealing comfortably is false. Many people have comfort issues when starting out carrying. These are the type of people who would buy this.

Not to mention, this should theoretically conceal better than a similar sized gun without the curve.

I like the looks of it, may have to check them out when they start selling. Maybe I've been lucky, but I've never had any problems with Taurus firearms. I've owned several over the years and still own a PT111 & PT140pro.

I am not saying no one has comfort issues. I am saying it is reminiscent of extra plastic engineered into something. The curve is a gimicky as we are all shaped a bit different. I can;t see this being more comfortable than any other pocket .380 in a pocket holster. Just one man's opinion....


And sorry to the Aztek and Element owners....no, no I'm not.......

Was the design inspired after Taurus seen an i-Phone someone sat on?

 

[warthog]

MY LCP works the same and looks the same in a DeSantis wallet holster, I'll pass.

 

[tradertator]

No thanks, I don't care for Taurus nor guns that I can only hold with 2 fingers.

Maybe add this as well to your guns that make no sense gimmicky collection: Taurus 85 View 38 Special 1", See Through 5 Round Stainless -FREE SHIPPING! - $465.43 | Slickguns

How can anyone take this company serious when it puts out stuff like this.

I always get a chuckle reading the reviews from Taurus owners. I like my Taurus buttttt, it's been back to the factory 42 times.

At least they didn't mould " Grip Zone " into it.
