Two years later, I bought mine. 11-2023 and so far, I love it. Right out of the box the first thing I noticed was how accurate it was. Or how accurate I could shoot it anyway. 0 malfunctions so far and really don't expect any. It just works with anything and everything I've ran through it. Factory loads, my reloads, aluminum, steel cases, it doesn't care, works with anything I've fed it so far. Maybe it would serve better to talk about what Taurus is now, and not so much about what it was in the past. I also bought an old G2C and have had the same luck with it. So, for whatever Taurus in the past, they seem to be as good or better than any now.

@@codyparker4742 I've got both a Gx4 and two used G2C's and I like them all. The only problem I've ever had with either was ammo related and not due to any fault of the guns. I got ahold of some ammo that didn't have the bullets seated quite deep enough and it would hold the slide just enough out of battery as to get light primer strikes. If you should experience this, look at the ammo that failed to fire and see if it has even the slightest rifling marks on the bullets. It could be that the chambers are cut slightly shorter than some other brands. I don't know, but bumping the bullets down just slightly completely cured the problem. Overall length is not always correct if you're not using the exact bullet called for, albeit the same weight bullet, they are not all shaped the same. Some need to be seated slightly deeper than what the specks call for.

I'm fairly new to gun ownership, with the Taurus TX22 and G3C. The recoil on G3C is affecting my accuracy (dead accurate on the TX22). I need more practice, but ammo is so expensive! Even my big ol Rock Island VR80 semi-auto 12guage is easier to shoot than the G3C. From your experience, is the recoil on the GX4 more than the G3C, being even more compact? Also, does it have the feeding issue with full clip of hollowpoint ammo that my G3c has. Spring very tight, carry only 9-10 rounds, and keep one chambered with safety on, so no chance of jam in an emergency. No feeding issues with subsequent rounds, only the first. No issues with FMJ, only hollowpoint. Considering the GX4 for concealed carry, G3C with laser/LED added is fine but bulky to conceal. Thanks for the reply.

Like the way they made this gun flush rather than the Bulky Take down like my Sig. (shoots much better as well). Nice quality Mec magazine. Solid steel chassis. Glock Compatible sights. (I put a Night Fusion on mine. What I see in this gun is Taurus took on all comers in this competitive market, took the best of all of them and put into this gun. And man did they do it right.

I had a G2C and liked it a lot ! I now have the G3 and absolutely love it. The trigger improvement is awesome and it is leaps and bounds a better gun than the G2C which I already liked and carried in my EDC rotation. Now my EDC carry in 9mm is my G3 when in a holster or my Kimber if in my pocket. So many "GREAT GUNS" available now and Taurus is right there among them !!!

Just picked one up yesterday after your review, it's amazingly similar to a p-365 besides it doesn't have the x-ray sights. But for the price, can't beat it. Taurus has an Ameriglo front sight on their site for $30.

I absolutely love this gun!! Just got back from shooting 244 rounds in the rain and this gun ran 100% perfect and shoots dead center with the factory sights. The grip never slipped out of my hand on any of the shots, had some slipping of my support hand fingers off my main grip but thats to be expected in the rain. I ran 3 different brands of 115grn bullets and 11rnds of 115grn hollow points. I think this GX4 out shoots my G3C and G2C by far.

I've seen him hit them with a Hi-Point 9mm pistol and they are pretty cheaply made. Someone who trains regularly and knows how to shoot really well, knows how to adjust for jankiness of sights and wonky tolerances that make a firearm fairly inaccurate. That is not saying that they will be able to make the worst of manufactured firearms look good but they can make mediocre firearms look very impressive.

Taurus really turned themselves around as a company when they brought out the PT-1911. They made a really good gun at a great price that was dependable, which wasn't something they were known for at the time, and they sold a ton of them and learned their lesson. They stopped making so many different models and variations and actually concentrated on things a little better and their quality really went up...

I bought my first firearm 4 or 5 years ago and it was a Taurus Millennium G2 PT111 9mm and I still carry it everyday. At the time, more people were telling me to avoid Taurus at all costs because of the 24/7 firing without pulling the trigger debacle and I must say I love my Taurus and have been looking for a Microcompact. This may be the one. Also, kudos for using the Maglula, I love that too!

Bought the GX4 last spring for about $300, I've fired about 2000 rounds through it and it's my go-to EDC. Very, very few jams, and most of those were me limp-wristing off-hand. Spent a few bucks on the extended mag plates, more for the ergonomics than the extra 2 rounds (though it doesn't hurt). Bought the CCW holster from Taurus and it fits perfectly. I'm a Lefty and it only took about 5 minutes to swap out the mag release button. . Yeah, I like this gun.

It is a quality pistol. I think it is every bit as good as the Sig, and I like the fact that it has the trigger safety. I put some upgraded night sights on mine, and it has been a very comfortable carry pistol in the pocket or inside the waste band. Definitely an easy gun to carry on a daily basis.

Beautifully designed. The full length rails add to accuracy and durability. The added polymer reinforcements under the barrel on the frame is great to see. The stainless parts will reduce friction for a smoother function. Easy to clean. Dual captured spring on a metal guide rod, accepts glock sights, shoots straight. I wonder when the red dot version will come out with a pic rail.
