A big gun enthusiast for many years. Never owned a Taurus, but after testing this gun out, I hauled home and ordered one right away. I have been a HUGE believer in using the off hand for support on a micro 9mm and this gun delivered perfectly. I Put this gun as the Top in Class. Obviously Taurus studied all the designs and when they entered into the Micro 9mm race and they came out fighting hard to be Number One and they win. . Bravo to Taurus. This is a clear winner. Great review!

Awesome. Hope it's working for you. Have thought it's possibly one of the best designed handguns ever. Love the stamped stainless steel frame design. It's not how I would have done it myself (not exactly)... but it's a better design than some of the others in my opinion. I'm sure it has its pros and cons like all guns do... but it's definitely an excellent self defense handgun.

not at all. the Beretta 84 in .380 ACP is twice as good because it actually inspires confidence in the shooter. these micro-9s are gimmicky pieces of junk. new shooters get them, can't shoot them because of the prohibitive recoil, so they put them in a box and never shoot them again. that means the manufacturers don't ever have to do work on them because the round count never gets up. it's a gimmick. Beretta 80's series, even chambered in .32 ACP, are better guns that fill this role more adequately.

I think you have great intuition! If you look at the frame design this is a shrunk down version of the TX22 frame design chambered in 9mm. Look at the backstrap, trigger shoe, and frame shapes, and then the grip cuts, indexing areas, and stippling patterns; they are all TX22 inspired. In my opinion, this is a good thing,, because it is what I had hoped the G3C would have been. Taurus's 9mm segment needed a freshening up of its frame design; not that the PT111 series pistols were bad by any means, but stippling, trigger, and sight upgrades does not a competitive new model make.

Bought two boxes of Fiocchi (sic) 115 gr fmj, and ran the first 100 rounds with zero malfunctions out of the box. Took the pistol home, and cleaned/oiled the gun for next range session. I also changed out sights for Tru Glo fiber optic sights (my preferred option). Next range session, I’ll try different weights, fmj and hollow points, and Tula ammo. If it continues to run as good as it did out of the box, I’ll get the +2 extensions and add it to my EDC rotation.

The actual people I talked to were fine, and I didn't jump down their throat because they aren't the ones actually fixing/managing things. So now they're sending me a replacement gun and that's fine, but I'm not taking any chances on another lemon. As soon as I get it I'm turning around and selling it. In contrast I sent a gun back to Ruger for warranty repair recently that wasn't originally mine--and I told them that--and they had it received, diagnosed, repaired, and sent back to my home in 7 business days...at no cost, along with documentation telling me what they replaced/fixed and that they had test fired it and even with what ammo they used. And it runs fine now.

Great review, Sootch. One thing that is great and that you did not mention: NO THUMB SAFETY! Yes! Also I noticed almost no muzzle flip. Amazing for a tiny pistol. I was surprised at no optics ready. The stainless steel chassis is very innovative. The slide stop is too. I want one!

@krxwnvxk34325 ай бұрын
Just got mine today and found it for $250 and was blown away. I couldn’t pass up a deal like that. The first pistol I ever owned was a Taurus G2. And I liked my G2 though I knew they could upgrade a few things which it looks like they went over and beyond with this model and the newer ones. Plus the build quality looks way better than that of the G2 and earlier striker fired pistols by Taurus. Did not know it has a lifetime warranty, that’s amazing. Great review as well.

I am really tempted by the GX4. I am fortunate to live near the Geneseo factory for Springfield so I usually buy those. I've only needed warranty work once on a 1911 so I drove over there, explained in person to the guy who would be working on it what my issues were. A few days later when I picked it up he came out and showed me everything he did. All I cared about was that the slide was getting scratched where it disappears inside the dust cover. Well Springfield gave me all new internals (barrel, trigger, etc) and he hand refinished the whole thing and precisely fit it all together. So it basically takes a lot to get me to buy a non-SA gun but for the $$$ I think I might pick up this Taurus GX4! I just hope if I ever need work on it Taurus impresses me as much as Springfield did.
