First, I know I say "Taurus" funny; it's my good ole Tennessee dialect that loves to mispronounce words. Don't hate on me for that 🙂. Also, I failed to mention the price of the pistol: MSRP is $349. Real world price on this handgun is around $310. Sorry, I forgot to mention that.

I've been looking to down-grade from 9mm since I have some shoulder injuries and a surgical repair that didn't work, and 9mm and higher just tears me up after a day at the range. I've been actively shopping 22s lately, and this could be the one. Thanks. I love when people laugh at people who choose smaller bore rounds as a waste of time or as ineffective, or as "girl guns". My answer is always the same... "Cool, can I shoot you with my 22?" So far, no one has said yes, so I guess they don't suck as much as people say.

I agree with you Chris but would say also consider .380acp as an option. If you get a decent size handgun there will be minimal recoil and a lot of the 380's on the market today are a lot easier to rack the slide than 9mm. A couple of suggestions I would make would be the S&W 380EZ, new Walther CCP M2 in 380, as well as SCCY CPX 3 or 4 and look for them to make their new DVG 1 in 380 soon I'm sure. I would also recommend a revolver that is capable of shooting 327 federal magnum, as you could then shoot 32 short, 32 long, 32 h&r and 32 acp. Also a revolver has no slide to rack. Nothing against 22lr and I don't want shot by it, just ammo finicky at times and not great against heavy clothing layers or other obstacles. Good luck with your shoulder issues hope they can be fixed for you.

@Erin There will never be a firearm that doesn't have some type of failure since there are so many factors in why failures occur with firearms and isn't always the firearm. It can be from User Failure, Ammo Failure, Firearm Failure, Environment Failure, Magazine Failure, and lastly Tarus Failure (Had to do it). I'm not referring only to jams whatsoever.

gymkhanadog That isn't bad, for a .22 rimfire round that isn't even designed for auto loaders. Every other cartridge that's designed for an auto loader, is RIMLESS. There's a reason for that... I just got back home from shooting my .223 Savage bolt rifle, and my little Phoenix Arms HP22. I had replaced the extractor on my Phoenix, and I wanted to see if it was fixed. It ran great! I had my .223 sighted dead on at 200 yards, the last time that I was out playing with it. Well, today it was so windy, that it was hitting 4" to the right. Probably 35 mph wind bursts. Not a good day to be shooting a rifle. I had to get out and shoot tho, because it had rained here for the last 4 days. Ahhhhh..... I feel better now. Does anyone else go thru withdrawals when they don't get to shoot for a few days??? I know I do!

I was just using bulk ammo of different types that was thrown into a bucket all mixed together. I didn't have a single failure of any kind. Amazing. Taurus finally got something right! Will be a good gun to practice sight acquisition and trigger control without breaking the bank on ammo.

I bought one of these pistols and was so excited. Took it to the range and it ate everything I fed it. At 250 rounds it started to key hole. The barrel was so caked with lead that when I tried to clean it my cleaning rod got stuck inside and then when I pulled it out the tip remained stuck in the barrel. Sent it back. After a quick search I see that this issue with barrels is common. It ran like a champ and turns out I am the chump.

To the Taurus critics I don't understand why anyone would still be condemning Taurus when they are currently manufacturing quality guns at generally speaking very reasonable prices. It's to every shooters benefit that there are more high quality firearms available at this price point. As it is I have never owned a Taurus pistol and still haven't purchased one but the G2C has really gotten my attention. You've got to spend a whole helluva lot more money to get an arguably better 9mm automatic. The G2C has impressed me so much I plan to buy one soon even though I don't need another 9mm. Now, with the release of the TH9 and this new TX22 it is obvious that Taurus is on a roll and deserves support. The only people who I might forgive are those who have, in the past, purchased a Taurus gun and had problems with it. I had the same issue with a S&W Shield 9mm. I learned to really hate that gun and traded it for a Walther. Despite that I don't go around condemning Smith & Wesson as a manufacturer. What I have always liked about Taurus pistols is that they are always doing very innovative things with their weapons and, now, with their quality on the rise I welcome them and congratulate them for the success they are having. I hope they keep going in this direction. My only complaint is that their customer service is still rumored to be awful. I hope that they address that soon.

Bkellyusa Customer service is very slow. I sent a TCP .380 to them one time, and didn't get it back for 4 months. They replaced the barrel, and the slide, and it ran great when I got it back, but 4 months is rediculous. I recently gave that gun to my mom, because all she had was a .38 ultra lite that hurt her hand when she shot it. I'm gonna take her out and train her with it, one day this week. I want her to feel confident carrying a weapon, and knowing she could use it, if she had to. Besides, I've got plenty of carry options, so I didn't really need it.

@@grumpysquid - I bought the Walther CCP M2. I love mine as well. The S&W Shield is really hard to rack for my wife and you cannot release the slide without using both hands. Add to that the Walther is significantly more accurate. Your PPS is generally considered a better weapon. The original CCP had some jamming issues and I think that has dampened the enthusiasm for the new M2 version which works flawlessly. I chose it over the PPS because the PPS does not have a thumb safety. I know there are many people who don't care for a thumb safety but I like to keep all my options open and, in the real world, if you don't like the safety you can easily just turn it off. The CCP M2 is my first Walther pistol and my experience so far has really awakened me to the brand. Now I'd like to get the PPQ Sc 9mm. We'll keep the CCP M2 and add that one sometime in the future. How come you chose the PPS.

Bkellyusa you seem like a very reasonable and level headed guy 😬 PPS M2 compared to G43 and Shield because: out-of-the-box performance, best trigger, aftermarket not needed, best ergonomics for my hand, 6 to 8-rd mags available, and its uniqueness in looks, etc. Had it over a couple years and here are my nitpicks (based on MY needs, etc): mags are $40 a pop (but again this is not a big deal), some tiny rust spots forming on the metal mags, no +P ammo (per the manufacturer, not a big deal). Otherwise it has been a stellar gun, fun to shoot and the one which makes it to my hip most often.

Not a fan of quasi-negative reviews. I'm not sure when Taurus bashing became so popular, but it's become pervasive (emphasis on PERV) across the shooting forums. I've owned and own Taurus revolvers and pistols and never a problem with any, not that I EVER relied on what self-appointed experts "told me" to make a decision. I'm impressed to see the grudging, RELUCTANT praise for the Taurus - perhaps you need to throw it in a mud hole, give it a quick wipe down, so when it jams you can say, "THERE! I knew it was a poor design!"

I've had this gun for one day. I love it. I shot 300 rounds through it. Brand new, I had two failures to feed (I consider the first 100 rounds as a breakin period). No failures for the next 200 rounds (see item #4 for mag loading). I was in the market for a Kel-tec P17 but haven't been able to procure one for over a year now. I decided to pony up the extra dough for this pistol. I don't know why I was hung up over the extra $100. I can't compare it to the Kel-tec since I've never fired one but I was not disappointed in my purchase of the TX-22. I hadn't seen this video before I bought it. I only vaguely remember the G&A article on it 2 yrs ago. My first impressions. 1. This gun's accuracy is very good. 2. The grip on this gun feels just right, Tauras knocked it out of the park on that one. 3. The sights need tweeked to suit your preferences. The adjustable sight is good but not great in adjustment range. 4.There is a trick to easy loading of the mags. Pull the round "handles" only down far enough to load a few cartridges at a time (It does get hard to pull at the last 12-16 cartridges). When done slap the mag against your palm and the last few bullets get into proper alignment for feeding. BTW: Running CCI 1070 fps standard ammo through it the whole time.

I am so happy for Taurus. The undeserved (for the most part) red headed step child of the gun world. This pistol has been a resounding success with stellar reviews and I hope Taurus continues to move forward with other highly functioning, quality based firearms. Good on you Taurus and CONGRATULATIONS!!!! America!!!!

Taurus deserves all the hate they get. Worst customer service ever!!!! I love my public defender, but the other 3 Taurus guns I bought, were junk. My 454 raging bull broke after 3 shots. Taurus had it 4 months. Total bullshit when a $900 gun is basically junk out of the box. Poor quality control.

Taurus has earned that criticism. There are actual support groups in South America for spouses of police officers who lost their lives due to a Taurus failure. Research the lawsuits against them for the problems their gen 1 sub compacts. They are improving but they deserve the hate.

Truth. I had a PT-111 that had a striker defect and would misfire and jam a lot; I sent it back and they fixed it, and I put a few thou through it trouble free after that. I had a 709 carry piece that I loved, and had zero issues with. Sold it to help feed the divorce monster, but that was a great piece.

Yeah it just proves that the issues Taurus have had over the years are strictly QC and tolerance stacking they had to figure out on their own designs They got a design that was completely ironed out for each and every component and NOBODY mentions that their Beretta clone is not only almost always perfect, they're beautiful as well as improved upon in a few aspects that most people prefer over the real Beretta

Had a few mis feeds but all the misfeeds came with cheap ammo that’s been sitting in a box for literally 30 years. With the better ammo I bought, no misfeeds. I also put put close to 400 rounds through it between my son and I.

I had a ton of .22 ammo so I knew it was time to buy a handgun. I own a .22 revolver that I love, and I was not disappointed with the TX22. It's by no means a perfect gun, but it's great at the range and I've yet to experience any major issues. I've put well over 1000 rounds through it.

I've been wanting a 22LR gun for a long time, and since I work armed security, and have to renew my license annually, I bought this to practice with cheap ammo. Just bought mine for $270.00 and I love it. It's light, but feels great in the hand. I was a little worried about the magazine, the rounds at the bottom are very eschew when the magazine is fully loaded, but it seems to work just fine. I highly recommend this gun if you can find one.

I looked at the new G3 and the trigger is far nicer than the G2...hopefully they make a G3c and G3s.

Jamie Sloan is exactly right. Taurus already makes an outstanding 9mm. The latest version is the G2C (the last release of the gun Jamie Sloan has) is the gun you are looking for. I bought a S&W M&P Shield 9mm and a few weeks later looked at a G2C and had the worst case of buyers remorse I've ever had. I sold the S&W to buy the G2C but got distracted and bought a Walther CCP M2 due to it's easy racking abilities that my wife likes so much. I love the Walther but in truth I am not sure how much better, if at all, it is when compared to the Taurus G2C and it cost me twice as much. With the G2C's super nice ergonomics, it's 12 round magazine, decent trigger, it's noteworthy accuracy and so many other nice touches it has to be considered the no-brainer purchase in the under $450.00 9mm handguns. I like it so much I am going to buy one anyway even though I don't need another 9mm gun.

I've got a Taurus PT111 Millennium G2 made in 2017 and man, it's so far been completely reliable. Eats every ammo I've thrown at it. I only have 1000 rounds thru it but all without ba hiccup. Based on that I bought a TX22. Took it to the range for the first time yesterday. Great ergonomics. Nice trigger, accurate enough out to 35+ft for my plinking and training needs. Had one failure to feed in about 250 rounds. It's a nice gun. The 16 rounds mags are a blast. I love the form factor and do hope Taurus releases some big brothers to it. Only downside so far are the cheap mags as noted in the reveiw.
