This is the first time that I have heard about this gun available in 40 cal ... Thank you for the information.

[@SlavGuns]

Quite welcome and thank you for watching! Yes... with 9mm being so popular, people forget it is also avail in 40. The great part is, you are getting 10 rounds of 40 s&w in the same package and size of guns where you get 10 rounds of 9mm. For defensive purposes, this is great! My friend is a huge fan of 40 so I gave him this gun and kept the 9mm.

The only thing taurus needs to do now is make a TAURUS G2C 45 compact and subcompact

[@bigsean2473]

i love my taurus p145 millennium in 45 is the first model of g2 that was out

[@libra7624]

The 40 has a power advantage over a 45 ... A comon myth is a 45 because larger many think has more energy but is actually less then the 40...the 45 shoots softer in small compacts and the 9 mm because they are low pressure rounds...this is why the 40 though size in between the 9 mm and 45 has more recoil....its simply because it is a more potent and powerful round then the 45 acp if you compare energy on all comon cartridges and have equal barrel lengths....for a 45 to keep up with the 40 you need a +P load but even that does not touch a 40 wich is a high pressure round even if its its not + P and even if 45 comes close you still got 40 wich comes in +P also like buffalo bore and underwood ..no 45 is ever going to be as explosive as a underwood 135 grain nosler bullet....shure a 45 still makes big holes but the bullet is not much bigger then a 40 given the size of of how large human body is in relation to the bullet....the 40 is under rated and miss understood because on the table it looks like its a middle caliber between the 9 mm and 45 but not so....the 9 mm and 45 have to fight for second place...the only reason why 40 in compacts is more snappy then a 9 mm or 45 is simply its a more powerful and a higher pressure round wich means more recoil but packs a wollup on any attacker i have a chonometer and have been shooting 1911 45"s since 1986 and my job in army was small are repair .. when 40 came along i thought it was a in between caliber at first and then found out that the facts are a 40 is more powerful then a 45 in every way...a 45 to match a 40 needs more barrel length and to be +P but even then the speer gold dot in 165 grain can still woop a 45

@@libra7624 factually yes a 40 has more pressure and energy. With that said its considerably harder to shoot especially in a compact for the non shooter. I like you reload cast my own bullets have multiple progressive machines for pistol and single stage for rifle. I have 40 cals 9mms and 45s you name it.. You only need so much energy to stop a threat. A 230 gr hollowpoint or even hardball will knock the shit out of your adversary. We all have our opinions with firearms.

[@Clarkecars]

The so-called "snap" of the .40 gives me reassurance that the weapon has cycled. Also at the time of its introduction, the .40 cal was the closest round in performance to a .357 magnum in a concealable compact. At that time there was no striker-fired 45 ACP compact such as the S&W Shield or a light easy to carry 5 shot .357 such as the Poly Protector by Taurus. A Ruger SP101 (great gun) weighs nearly 2 lbs. At that time the Glock 27 was about the only choice. I carried a Glock 27 for over a decade. I now carry a Shield in .40 and alternate between the G2c in .40 and a Poly Protector in .357. If a concealed carry is heavy and drags your pants down you won't carry it all the time. I carry all the time.

So Exactly which brand and type of Ammo would you recommend is #1 for this G2C 40 S&W?

[@MrLeram12]

Got mine and I didn't find it snappy. Great shooter.

[@MrGsteele]

I regularly hear caveats about the .40 S&W being an effective round, but . . . followed usually by an adverse comment on its higher recoil than is the case for 9mm. My experience is different - significantly so. I have two essentially identical Taurus pistols - a Millennium G2 in 9mm and a G2c in .40 S&W. After shooting them both at the same range session, I found the recoil impulses to be different, for sure, but also at odds with anecdotal descriptions. I have since asked 3 different shooters to fire them side by side in an A:B test at the range, and all 3 have come to the exact same conclusion as mine: the .40 is easier to control. The recoil impulse of the 9mm is sharp - leading to more muzzle rise and higher slide velocity; the impulse of the .40 is more like a "push" - and is more controllable, as well as faster back on target for a follow-on shot. It may be my particular gun; perhaps the recoil spring rate; perhaps the ammunition; perhaps the particular grip geometry and polar moment of the Taurus. I don't know - but it is definite, it is obvious, and it is reliably the case to the degree that I willingly forgo the extra two rounds of the 9mm for the controllability of the .40. After all, shot placement matters, and if you don't hit your target . . . I think there are a few things worthy of note: 1, I also have a S&W 4006 in .40 that is much heavier than the Taurus; its recoil impulse, counterintuitively, is much worse. These were CHP issue guns that were discontinued in favor of a return to 9mm. I think the CHP mistake was not in the choice of .40 as their caliber, but rather in the choice of gun to fire it. A more controllable gun might well have resulted in the .40 staying in service. 2, I suspect this observation is extensible across a wide variety of arms. I own a .458 Winchester Magnum bolt-action rifle, made years ago to my specifications. It has a heavy, steeply-pitched rollover comb and a Mannlicher stock - to the muzzle. It is also Mag-na-Ported. I would far rather (were it not for the outrageous cost of .458 Magnum ammo) shoot that rifle than a .30-06 Remington 742 that I also own. The 742's recoil velocity is "snappy" and uncomfortable to shoot; the .458's - again - more like a "push." There's a dramatic difference - at least for me, as well as among those I've shot with who've also compared the two - in the perceived controllability and comfort, as well as "confidence" in the weapon with the lower recoil velocity. 3, and finally, it could also point to an overlooked opportunity in gun tuning, with consequences in competitive shooting or self-defense. Slide lightening to reduce slide cycle time and increase firing rate might well, in certain cases, be counterproductive if it results in snappier recoil. Muzzle displacement upwards is the bugaboo of rapid fire; the further back down that you have to bring a muzzle for a follow-on shot, the longer it takes. A minor flip is much easier to control. Tinkering with the recoil characteristics specifically to minimize recoil velocity might prove to provide a competitive advantage. In a gunfight, that's a life and death advantage. I bring this up because you read a lot about recoil and controllability, but usually the discussion centers on recoil energy figures. I think that shortchanges the very real and perceptible - and perhaps more important overall - effect of recoil velocity. I'd rather be pushed firmly than punched. It seems more in keeping with what a body or nerve/muscle system is equipped to deal with. At any rate, it's at least worth considering and observing, and being alert to the fact that effective, competitive, and survivable use of a weapon is what matters, not numbers in a ballistics table.

ankle carried a kahr cm40 backup for a long time. .40 out of these short barrels has signficantly more energy than .357 out of the same barrel length because of cylender gap, while having a 5+1 and a bigger cross section. just not a lot of interest recently in .40 ever since we decided new 9mm is superior... but i think we have ignored the poor expansion performance of most defense rounds out of these short barrels. larger calibers actually get a higher percentage of their final energy (not velocity! which is exponentially related to energy) out of a shorter barrel compaired to 9mm. i do think that .40 guns tend to tear themselves appart at about 5x the rate as 9mm ones... but thats why this cheap gun might be perfect.... ide go with the stainless version if you can find it, i had my 9mm version rust a lot on me constantly but mostly just surface petna like the sigp365xmacro thx for uploading and cool tnt shirt

[@jaguaruno2885]

can you review the Taurus TH40c?

[@CraigHann-j6y]

I have the nine now I want the 40

[@jerradtuttle6718]

If you buy a g2c 40 slide , barrel. And recoil spring. Could you put it on 9mm. Body

[@SlavGuns]

Good question, I am thinking yes... but have not tried it. I am thinking at this price, just buy a second gun! =)

[@BOOMER-rs5qn]

I looked at doing that for my Glock, but 9mm for 40 frame. By the time I bought all that I'm almost at of the price of just buying the complete 9mm gun.

[@mrsmel269]

Slav great video!!! always like the 40 , 10mm is on the list just dont have any .

[@fumblefingas2157]

Do they even make the 40's anymore. None available.

[@SlavGuns]

Yea they should! Tougher to find for sure because most dealers don’t want it.

[@stevenrucker9890]

I have it in 9mm going to get the 40 next week ASAP

[@SlavGuns]

they have also come down in price and are great values. And I have not seen the G3C in 40 SW yet...

[@stevenrucker9890]

@@SlavGuns WOW!! Keep your eyes out. Soon you'll have one

[@SlavGuns]

@@stevenrucker9890 is Taurus supposed to do a G3C in 40? Have not seen anything on it.... I am picking up another G3C tomorrow... but it is not 40. =P

[@stevenrucker9890]

@@SlavGuns I meant G2. Wasn't paying attention to the full comment 🤣

[@bigdawgtraps7245]

Can you buy drums for these ?

[@SlavGuns]

I have not seen any high capacity mags or drums for Taurus pistols, especially the 40 S&W.

[@robertschweppie5256]

WE ARE FINDING IT DIFFICULT TO BUY EXTRA MAGAZINES FOR THE PT 140 2C CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT OTHER PISTOL MAGS ARE THERE THAT WILL FIT THIS PISTOL. I HEAR SIG FITS THEM IS THIS TRUE .

[@williamdillard8330]

It is physically the same size in your hand as the .9mm version? I know it only holds 10 rounds but that is not what I mean.

[@SlavGuns]

Yep.... otherwise exactly the same dimensions! Thanks for watching!

[@williamdillard8330]

@@SlavGuns ok

[@todddurst53]

I have the g2c 40 and I like it!!

[@502MostGunz]

My edc is a glock 36 45acp everyone has there own preference its about what you are comfortable with some people can hit their targets with a 9mm better or 40 and 45 i dont even argue about which cal has more power and energy at the end of day train yourself to hit that target when the day comes!

[@andrewhanson6053]

Do the barrels swap.? Can you throw the 40 in the 9?

[@SlavGuns]

So it would be more than a barrel swap, you would need a 40 to 9 conversion barrel instead. Better swap the complete slide. In reality though, for around $250, just buy another gun. =)

[@pabloescobar7802]

I own 2 of these in.40 and one in 9mm great guns for the money .. sub 300$ out the door ..

[@joshuahoward2214]

Damn im late i had no idea they had this in the 40 cal I definitely gotta go get this monday

[@timothybyrom5560]

What is length of pull in a pistol. Length of pull is the measurement from the buttpad to the trigger in a long gun . At least that's the way I understand it.

[@workinmanworkinman3889]

I’d rather have a 40 over a week ass 9 any day....

[@micahmarrietta2059]

Pretty sure being hit with either wouldn't tickle

[@Platano_macho]

It’s still dangerous

[@garythesnail1181]

In comparison they are not far from each other in terms of energy & ballistics clearly the 40 is more powerful but if you want some real juice go with a 10mm

[@D-A-1776]

Thinking about getting one for a truck gun found a brand new one for 239

[@semlohde1]

Good price, I got the g3c 40 for 299 just last month.

[@strikingdistance2898]

Awesome review after watching your video, l think l will get both the G2c in 9mm and 40S&W 👍

[@SlavGuns]

Thanks for watching! I am glad you liked the video. The cool part is, they use the same holsters and accessories. =)

[@cottonp20]

I LOVE MINE ! BEST $$ invested !

[@SlavGuns]

Glad you love it!

[@SIX4TALL]

I love my 9g2c but I really like that 40 if it can take those extra extended mags like the 9mm I'll trade mines but no time soon thou

[@SlavGuns]

Thanks for watching!

[@godshelter211]

Make sure it's a double stack.

[@kalanhitchens8782]

I just had a pawn shop sell me a brand new what I thought was 9 mm. Turns out I got this gun, he gave me 9 mm ammo to go with it and I was wondering why it wasn't shooting right.

[@ml-en9gu]

I love mine

[@SlavGuns]

Awesome! Glad you are, and we were just talking about it at the range today!

[@angelaprestwood1351]

9mm is plenty powerful enough not many people walk away from it when shot by a 9mm my thought

[@SlavGuns]

Generally yes. The issues arise when someone is on drugs and their brain does not understand the pain and keeps on going. 40 has more energy... But at a price. Thanks for watching.

[@jasonburns6307]

@Su!c!de Surv!vor it's not like the movies when they are hitting head shots all day.

[@edwardzx7]

Su!c!de Surv!vor couldn’t agree more!!!

[@RedReaper303]

That depends on where the person (who is a threat) is shot at and if he/she is on drugs. Now if you shoot the person, who is a threat to you and everyone else around, in the leg or anywhere where the bullet severed a main artery or somewhere important in the human anatomy. You kill the person for shooting the main artery or possibility paralyze someone. Look at the Jacob Blake shooting. He was shot multiple times and he's paralyzed now.

[@larrywilliams9368]

In winter months in cooler parts of the country heavy clothing can be an issue for 9mm.

[@musicman3158]

True. That's why a beretta .40 (PX4 Subcompact) is my choice.

[@GucchiMillz]

Alwaus been a 9 person but i like 40 45 is just to luch for edc conceal carry my opinion

[@erikback3144]

I’m probably going to get this for my wife she likes how 40 sw and I have like 40 rounds left. I’ll get this and g3. I seen the g3 for about 230 but I’m going to trade in my bodyguard the trigger pull on a 380 is about 9 pounds which is ridiculous

[@SlavGuns]

Has she shot 40 s&w in a compact? G3 is quite nice, I just got that and the G3C for testing... will have videos soon.

[@robertrosenberg6354]

9lb is right where a pocket DAO pistol should be....Its not a target gun.

[@joshuacoomer4955]

just got my 9 mm seems i will be ordering another lol

[@brucemoriarty9964]

Thank you for shooting single handed. People dont realize you could get hit in the arm and can only shoot with one arm . The target shooting stance is rare in most real life situations. Great video.

[@SlavGuns]

Thanks for watching and your comment! For sure, you need to be able to shoot 1 handed, both strong and weak side. Another good reason is that people will have a tendency to limp wrist a gun.
