Springfield Armory Hellcat vs Taurus G2C...Which is better???

[@sterlingmack5394]

My G2C NEVER has jammed once and NO malfunctions and almost 900 rounds have gone thru it. It eats all 9mm steel and brass ammo. Clean your firearms

[@mr.38special65]

As I said in the video it was the first time I've ever had a problem and I know I've had well over I don't know a buttload around of all kinds except for these reloads and this was the first time it's done it

[@YouTalkinToMeBro]

I have over 2000 through my g2c. Only 2 failure to fire, that was with 115 grain. It loves 124 and 148 grain.

[@hondaservicecenter]

Only time my g2c has probs is when you slide release with short flat ammo

[@hondaservicecenter]

If manualy racked no probs

[@bradenclark8505]

Never had an issue with my g2c except operator error 😅, I my hold was too high and the damn slide gashes my thumb, the cartridge jumped out the chamber turned around and racked the cartridge upside down into the barrel, range master had to run a rod through to free it out. One in a million chance.

[@BackAfter10]

I've shot both. And overall based on price I purchased the G2C. I have now 1000 rounds on the pistol. No jams of any kind thus far. As for the laser set up from Taurus. Black Friday I was able to get the Viridian Red Dot w/2 Mags for $100. I'm so confident thus far with the G2C as both a EDC and Home defense that I will probably buy a second G2C just for the house. Good Video Guys! New Sub.

[@CadillacJones]

We appreciate it.

[@Badrs2810]

Just watched this and wanted to give a little tip. When breaking down the G2c, you first need to pull the slide back, slightly, then pull the breakdown pins...the breakdown can happen in less than a second, when you slightly pull the slide back...

[@CadillacJones]

Cool. I'll let him know. I appreciate it.

[@edwardsekera6915]

Just like a glock

[@ChefSaucey_G]

Just bought my G2c Thursday. Get to pick it up this Thursday. First firearms purchase. Paid 245 came with 2 magazines. Looking forward to going to the range after this.

[@AnimeUnitedBR]

As a G2c brazilian owner I shoot almost 1500 round and haven’t seen any bad functions at all. Brazilians usually buys g2c because is more cheap. In Brazil g2c cost 3k and the hellcat cost 12k at least (I’m talking real brazilian currency), any ways. great budget gun. By the way: In Brazil g2c comes with hard plastic case and 3 magazines, not in the paper box as in US.

[@CadillacJones]

WHAT?!? You guys get a box? Is it like a Glock box?

[@thewatcher8345]

In south africa they come in a hard case with 3 mags, great little gun, the g2c is reliable....and yes clean your gun.

[@dion4916]

G2C owner and have never had any problems with the gun and it feels great in the hand and extremely accurate. The Taurus is better in price .🔫

[@CadillacJones]

Price is very important.

[@bu3butler1]

I liked your video on the comparison of the two. The Taurus G2c breaks down very similar to a Glock. ( if not identical to one ). So don't let that keep you away from a G2c. I love mine, and I saved a grip of cash too!

[@CadillacJones]

I appreciate it man

[@timrollins1015]

Mine never jamed after I polished the feed ramp

[@travelingcameraman89]

My G2C slipped up like yours where the slide didn’t go back into battery or resumed normal position after firing the round. The gun needs to be broken in and cleaned for sure. The recommended cleaning is after every range day, however, if you clean it 2-3 times a month (depends how often you go to the range) the gun should move the slide into battery. Nice video! Great comparison!

[@jimmydavis6954]

Changing out the plastic striker sleeve in the G2C will change the trigger travel for the better

[@lenculpepper9150]

The G2C is a great pistol at any price point!

[@gamingaccount1142]

I bought my first gun, the G2C. I picked it up today. Paid $220 before taxes and shipping charges for it on Gunbroker. Mine is OD green. I love it. Haven't shot it yet. My ammo gets delivered tomorrow. I can't wait. The guy at the gun store talked me into getting better sights put on it which I'm doing next paycheck. Trilium night sights.

[@CadillacJones]

Good stuff. Let me know what you think about how it shoots

[@metalbuggy]

If you pull the slide back a little, the two buttons pull all the way down on the G2C

[@CadillacJones]

Good to know

[@crypto1300]

I'm looking at both of these as my first micro compact.

[@CadillacJones]

I love my hellcat. Have you made a decision yet?

[@keithtate1241]

I love all 6 of my Taurus pistols. They are all accurate, reliable and eat everything I feed them. My G2C is my primary EDC. I have no problem field stripping my G2C. Pull the trigger and hold the slide back just slightly with your right hand. Pull down the tabs with the left and push the slide off with the right. If you hold the slide back too far you will need to pull the trigger again. Thanks for the video.

[@CadillacJones]

I appreciate the info. Thanks for watching.

[@andyepps9871]

G2c is easy to take a part, and I got my for 230, and it runs steel really well, love Taurus, great vid

[@CadillacJones]

Can't beat that price. I appreciate it.

[@vinnystx]

Love my g2c I protect it from rust it protects me from bad guys and bear cougar coyotes

[@joaothomazini]

So half the price and is as good as the expensive one? Just because it comes in a pouche it doesn't justify the difference.

[@JameyLane]

Still have my OG G2 that I bought in 2015. It's what I carry. Lakeline LLC makes a good flush base plate for it.

[@kcadventure-m3u]

The G2c chamber is not as deep as most. Mine won’t chamber certain 124gr ammo. The depth the bullet isn’t seated in the case enough. Probably the same issue y’all had with the reloads. You can get the camber reamed deeper but I just check the ammo first by making sure it’ll easily drop in the barrel while taken apart.

[@michaelbetts8379]

I own two love this gun G2C

[@hubiecasteel7045]

My G2C has never jammed not once nor malfunctions. I have fired around 1000 rounds through it. I keep it cleanes and oiled.. I love the G2C...

[@CadillacJones]

That could definitely be the key.

[@ImRickJames24]

looked to me to be more of a grip issue with the g2c. looked like they were limp wristing it a bit.

[@mr.38special65]

I would like to reiterate we were using reloads from the range now I'm not saying they did a horrible job or anything like that. What I am saying is both firearms failed to go into battery due to the reloads. I cannot speak for my friend but I clean my weapon before I fire it and after I fire it

[@nopiatl]

I got mine for $250 with $100 rebate they had the Taurus g2's in Bloomington at the range CI Shooting. If you've never been I definitely recommend the trip they're very clean place very organized and lots of accessories and friendly and professional staff I didn't feel like I was being looked at like a criminal no signs on the doors and pull your pants up

[@larrypenarubia1386]

So u need to pull slide back very little then push both locks down and it will slide foward

[@CadillacJones]

I appreciate that.

[@WES-JGC-2013]

You have to pull the slide back on the Taurus just a little bit then pull down on the 2 sides and when you let loose of the slide it won't go into battery, then you pull the trigger, and it will slide off. I can do mine just as fast as he did the hellcat, and after adding Lakeline stainless guide rod and stainless recoil spring etc. and a small amount of polishing the slide contact points and feed ramp I'd put mine against any hellcat or Glock! Btw when you add the Olight Baldr Mini RL, it has a light and laser built into the actual lens of the light and doesn't extend past the front of the barrel, and with my Workz light bearing IWB holster it is awesome, no print and even has a slot for the Olight magnetic charger to fit in while holstered. I also recommend a Hogue Rubber grip, and even with all that it's still cheaper than the hellcat with nothing! I paid 203, when they first came out and would've paid 450-500! Also, the factory G3 15rd and 17th mags fit, along with Sig p226 mags, and Canik TLR9 mags and they make all kinds of High cap aftermarket mags including a 50 round drum.

[@andycoslet6479]

The hellcat is still waay over priced for what you get

[@bdub0983]

Oil is cheap. That gun wasn't going fully into battery. It's possible it's the guns fault. But more likely the magazines or lack of maintenance. Some people never clean their firearms, aside from just adding oil every now and then.

[@CadillacJones]

I'm surprised people add oil as opposed to cleaning.

[@frank-mm7oo]

The market has an extended takedown part for the Taurus. It sticks out further so you can get it better.

[@AyyooDee1]

When you break down the Taurus top hand pull back, two fingers on the release, and then pull hammer

[@mr.38special65]

Thank you for the insight.

[@realind1v1dual1sm]

I agree and I also have a Taurus G2C. He didn’t do it right when taking the gun apart which is why he failed multiple times. Mine always comes apart super easy and fast.

[@mr.38special65]

@@realind1v1dual1sm I have tried it the way you and him both say and absolutely easier. But still have problems pulling down the release.

[@eduardoguzman1440]

You can do an upgrade to g2c for just $35 replacing the plastic parts and will become a very trusted firearm, on ebay, metal recoir spring for $22, stainless steel fire pin striker $11

[@bradenclark8505]

I have both and i enjoy both the g2c is a compact, the hellcat is a micro compact. They both shoot well no issues on the hellcat, g2c shoots good aswell, but the ergonomics on the springfield hellcat are way better, and i love the stipple on the hellcat. But id trust both to do the job should i need them to. Also the sights are much better with springfield. Got an echelon aswell

[@Walter_Sobchak_43]

I carry a Sig Sauer p365 for EDC but I just got a brand new Taurus G3c for $215 (only 2 mags included tho). After 200 rounds, I feel like I robbed the seller. lol This pistol is amazing and runs hollow-points, rounds, and flat-nose like a hungry beast. It is a Glock 43x for half the price. YOU HAVE TO CLEAN AND OIL THE PISTOL BEFORE 1ST SHOTS!

[@inquiry9976]

Taurus for me.

[@outlawandoutdoorstv9901]

I have the G3C and its a excellent pistol. Im a former army Infantryman or Rifleman 11bravo. I have a few pistols from a glock 48, glock 22, kimber colt 1911 ultra carry pro 2, Canik TP9 Elite Combat, and my Taurus G3c. While all my pistols are excellent pistols the Canik has the best trigger and shoots and runs the best 800$, 1500 kimber is the most high end and you can tell its a great handgun. My glocks are just that glocks dont much need to be said glock says it all. Now that G3C i got 229$ in with 3 mags and its ny EDC and my favorite gun to abuse and shoot the hell out of. Its never jammed or malfunctioned in anyway and ive put some cheap ass ammo through her and not one malfunction outta hundreds if not close to a thousand rounds now. Just a awesome little pistol, its not the the greatest trigger bit its not that bad either boit like a glock. If ya want a awesome stock trigger go with a canik especially the TP9 Elite Combat or the Elite combat SFX or the new mete9 comapq is also amazing and its only about 500$

Bought my G2c and love it. After 400 rounds or so I had no issues whatsoever My EDC gun 2 years now. Total I'm gonna guess I've put 2,500 rounds thru it and the only thing that's ever been an issue was mag springs Best $220 I may have ever spent

[@frank-mm7oo]

Taurus every time. But I own 7 and working on getting the TH10.

[@johngrimm7]

The G2C isn't so bad. It also has a re strike capability. Meaning that if you come across a bad round, press the trigger again and it will send the round down range. You can tap the mag and rack the slide to get rid of the bad round but the re strike comes in handy,also

[@CadillacJones]

Interesting. Didn't know pulling the trigger would get it to go. Thanks.

[@johngrimm7]

@@CadillacJones Sure thing. Run some cheap quality steel ammo like Tul and if doesn't run, press the trigger again to send it down range. You'll see what I mean. Just a fair warning,though. The lacquered steel ammo ruins the barrel over time, though. Regular stuff will do fine.

[@tonypizzutto4163]

I like the G3C 9mm very nice price and reliability too

[@joule7256]

You are doing to takedown on the g2 wrong. You do not have to cock it, infact there is a dead area where you just have to pull it enough disengage the takedown and you can remove the slide without cocking it like a glock. I do it all the time with my g2c, g3c, and g3.

[@quoththeraven7]

I used to think the Taurus G2c was a great gun, people can get angry all they want. But I paid for a training class before, and it was four people in there that brought the Taurus G2C. & one had a Sccy. all 5 of them was having serious problems. The guns was not going into battery, failing to feed, failing to eject, To the point the trainer Stopped them from using the guns in his class, issued them P365's and Hellcats for the rest of day, they had no more issues & two of the people bought Hellcats. I can only go by what I see. And this video confirms that. I went in there with the Shield 2.0 and had zero issues.. Sometimes you get what you pay for.

[@CadillacJones]

Interesting perspective man. Kind of scary that it's not available when you need it.

[@WES-JGC-2013]

Wonder if they cleaned em after buying em before shooting, cause the crap they lube em with from the factory will cause em to do all that!

[@brokeboytactical]

I don't even have to watch this video to know that the hellcat won 🤣. I have nothing but Taurus firearms but I live in the real world and know that a Springfield hellcat is going to be better quality than a Taurus of any kind and that's okay one's a budget firearm and the other isn't. The only way I think the Taurus g3c or g2c would shine over the hellcat is that it could fill the role of a home defense gun as well because you can mount a light. But just solely as a concealed carry option the hellcat wins hands down in my opinion wish I could afford one. Now I'm gonna watch this video and see if I stuck my foot in my mouth 😂

[@CadillacJones]

I agree. I'm definitely a hellcat fan and I think that's who wins. But it comes down to personal preference. You'll have a hellcat before you know it man.

Had a g2c a while ago. Own a hellcat micro now though. For an active person the hellcat is way lighter and way less clunky. My shot was a little better with Taurus UNLESS i have 15 rd and not 11 or 13. Then it's comparable

[@misterj2538]

The Taurus G2C will run just as well as the Springfield Hellcat for half the price. I bought the Taurus G2C as a sidekick. Get the most bang for your buck.

[@gotmylk]

Nice comparison guys. I liked the friendly banter. I've never held or shot a Hellcat. I have held and shot a few Tauraus 9mm. I didn't like any of them. Polymer guns already feel cheap in my opinion. The Taurus pistols I held were rattle traps that felt every bit as $200 guns. I feel the same about the s&w mp2.0. Feels like junk and something I would not put my life on the line with. Best budget 9mm I've shot is the SAR9. Best polymer 9mms I've owned and shot are Glocks. Still not much of a fan. I just trust Glock reliability. A few thousand rounds of cheap ammo and reloads and not one malfunction.

[@mr.38special65]

Thank you for expressing your view points. If we are lucky more to come Glocks I'm sure would be in one at some point.

[@gotmylk]

@@mr.38special65 looks like you guys have a Colt Python 357 on the table in this video. I have a blued 1969 Python 357 myself. It's my all time favorite pistol in my collection.
