Taurus Factory Tour with Select Fire

In this episode of Select Fire we travel to Bainbridge, GA to see how these affordable, crowd-pleasing firearms are created.

[@daphicus]

I love my Taurus pistols. I have a Judge, TX22 and a G3. They are all fabulous pistols.

[@dontme000]

i have g3 and even its cheap price the quality is gooood

[@seanusmc]

Taurus and Rock Island Armory are literally becoming my favorite companies honestly i'm rooting for the underdog. I have yet to have any problems with my guns.

[@Prompiriya_Pimsomboon]

💓💓💓

[@MrFmccarty]

Oh yes! I’m bullish on Taurus and My Rock Rocks!!!

[@ericbergfield6451]

Taurus has definitely stepped up their game in the past 3yrs, & it's blatant to see because their newer models sell pretty well!

[@embrulha_pros_cachorro]

Even here in Brazil their products got better. They used to sell the left overs of the exports, but now they're really are improving, and in the US it seems the same.

[@alfontana6242]

Chris, Thanks for the factory Tour. Taurus has high quality firearms for the price the average guy or gal can afford. I just purchased 2 Taurus TX 22 compact pistols, one for me and one for my wife. Very high quality for the price and they come with 2 magazines as well.

[@Gunscom]

You're welcome Al. Glad it was helpful.

[@johnscreekmark]

I’d like a TX22. And I love that Taurus has brought jobs to the free state of Georgia.

[@faridghu192]

I'm glad to see Taurus earning respect in the affordable firearms market. I'd like to see a Taurus tactical 22lr rifle.

[@Gunscom]

Well deserved.

[@HenkduPlooy-ym3ed]

All my guns are Taurus weapons. It is the best....Love the lifetime warranty. Greetings from South Africa

[@MarvinSheats]

Very cool

[@jamesshenay3426]

Just purchased a gx4. Love it! Micro 9mm with 11+1 magazine. It's light weight and produces a very small conceal print. I've shot 300+ rounds of 115gr and not one issue. For the price you can't find a better quality than the gx4. And Yes, I know there's a company recall on some of the gx4 models, but mine is not one of them. Very pleased with it.

[@nonjaninja4904]

I'd be interested to see their Brazilian plant too.

[@Gunscom]

That would be very interesting.

[@anthonyjackson6470]

That’s what I came to see

[@johnevans1969]

I have bought half a dozen Taurus firearms, Heritage, and Rossi and love them all. Great work Taurus, thank you

[@yuvgotubekidding]

It looks as if Taurus is planning on expanding. The plant has lots of space ready to grow. 👍🇺🇸 Great video. This is how you win over customers. Bud Lite take notes.

[@muff-waggle-b9408]

I’m a proud owner of a Taurus TX22 competition SCR . I absolutely love it

Pena que vivemos numa ditadura socialista do Lula que sequer foi eleito democraticamente. E também não exportamos essas armas . São todas feitas nos EUA

Enjoyable video. I love learning about Taurus.

[@Gunscom]

Glad you enjoyed it Fred.

[@stefanmolnapor910]

Im the never Tarus guy, or was untill i found a G2 in the road. Very nicely built, shoots straight, i am impressed. Not a fan of the politics going on in Brazil tho Holy cow, didnt know they made Heritage!!! Own 2, best for price by far

[@Gunscom]

Great comment. Thanks Stefan.

[@razgvozd]

It's a shitty brand drinking out of corruption and cartel service. Nothing to see here. Brazil makes actually good military items, but these are not backed by the militians hiding in US right now.

[@stefanmolnapor910]

@@razgvozd buy a Heritage, you will change you mind, ive only shot the Taurus i found, on a road, and it is comparable to other entry guns, i.e S&w, Springfield, etc, they have come a long way and most of it is made in USA

[@robertoprimordial2633]

Brasil foi tomado pela ditadura do Lula. Inimigo da liberdade. Sofremos um golpe de estado perpetrado pelo Supremo Tribunal Federal e derrubaram nosso único presidente democrático, Bolsonaro

[@thomashyler6174]

Loved the tour. My Public Defender is one of my favorite carry pistols.

[@Gunscom]

Sweet.

[@edwardmckinney2542]

One of my favorite guns is my Judge--use it for snakes, squirrels, and home defense.

[@Gunscom]

Can't go wrong with a Judge.

[@chipbrenner9981]

Awesome video. What a great facility. Thanks for putting it together.

[@tomhanna2714]

Pretty cool video, although all modern gun factories look much the same. Taurus has always been a bit of a quirky company, and I speak from a reasonable amount of experience here. Most of what I call their ‘legacy’ guns are excellent both in form and function. I’m of course referring to the Beretta and S&W legacy designs such as the PT92/100/908/945 series and the 66/608 and 44 series. All of the blued Tauri I’ve had (66B4, PT945 and PT92) have been excellent shooters. The factory PT mags are kinda cheesy, but Mec-Gar makes superb replacements at very reasonable prices. More recently I’ve had a 608 which was made in Bainbridge/Brazil. Functionally it too was excellent and shot quite accurately. I just couldn’t bring myself to like the plain stainless finish, however cost-effective it might have been. I think their biggest ‘problem’ over the years hasn’t been so much quality/reliability but aesthetics. Since I’ve never had one of the more modern guns I can’t speak to their performance (a friend has a TX22 and it shoots great tho) but I just can’t help but think Taurus tries a little TOO hard styling wise, too futuristic, if you will. Maybe they’ve decided that’s the demographic they want to pursue. I’m just not one of them though. And there’s nothing wrong with that either. Variety is always good. I think a 66B4 or 66SS4 Executive model would be simply spectacular if they’re willing to invest enough time in getting a nice finish, be it blued or stainless. Let’s make it so, please!

[@scottsmith4710]

I have over 11,000 rounds through my TX22 and it shoots great. I never had a problem with it or the G2C, G3C pistols. Taurus is really putting out some great pistols.👍

[@Gunscom]

Yes they are. The TX22 in particular is awesome.

[@612ZtoMhS]

I've owned and fired many pistols but I love my G3C .. the amount of detail on a budget gun is crazy 😊 I love it

[@MarvinSheats]

Good Stuff. Proud owner of a Taurus G3XL.

[@rbm6184]

The US made guns for sure have better quality control than the Brazilian made guns. The G series pistols, TX, and GX particularly. I recently got an 856 Defender three inch revolver and took several days looking it over before buying to make sure it had no defects or damage. I passed on one from another dealer that had timing problems. A bad timed new revolver should never have left the factory. Taurus could also do a better job at thread locking their screws. I have a G2c and an 856 and a Rough Rider. The Rough Rider had a marred muzzle crown that I missed and I had to do a crown job on it and thread lock the screws but I got the RR before Taurus and Heritage moved to Georgia so quality control has gone up since then and since Bret Vorhees has taken over as CEO. My experience with Taurus customer service has been good for a parts replacement when I lost a part that was my fault. My first Taurus pistol was a PT92AF when Taurus first began making them back in the 80s. Great pistol. Wish I still had it. Thanks for sharing.

[@Gunscom]

Thank you for the comment RB M.

[@gamesforthewin]

Can't wait to get my hands on a Taurus 500

[@hectorperezphotographer]

We have the GX4 at home , tell ya, really like that little thing. Glad was not on the recall list.

[@leandrogodoy-amigos1659]

Congratulations to Taurus and your products!

As a street cop in San Antonio, I carried a J frame stubby that was 100% titanium for 24 years.....never used lifetime warranty.

Good evening. My plan is to own this company one day. When I do, you will have this position if you are still interested. Take care Kevin

[@frankwrogg2515]

They need to bring back the Nylon 66 as a clone of course

[@christianholden1278]

The owners manual for the tx22 says it's a limited lifetime warranty and that only the original owner can get a warranty fix and must have proof of purchase and date of purchase and have to register for warranty up to 30 days after purchase.

[@brandonnevarez8417]

Ive owned and shot severally taurus revolvers and semis, some were great some were hit or miss and i had 1 that jammed constantly, for a budget American made companys , RUGER and M&P and other smiths are best way to go in quality reliability and durability

[@cliffcollins2497]

Great tour! Take care

[@gordoelkis]

Man I’ve liked okay LOVED TAURUS a long time. Now they are causing me to think before I look at anything else! Are they open to public. I have one I need to send back and I sure would like to see it done!

[@rv003yt]

Official warranty is only to Original Purchaser. Customer service will tell you RMA is 4 weeks. I guess whats in this video do not speak on behalf of Taurus Corp.

[@telesniper2]

You know that Johny Cash song "One Piece at a Time".... yeah that's what it'd be like if I worked there 😁

[@hmiranda71]

He said a 3 day turn around period for warranty service? I called Taurus, got me in hold for 35 minutes, and they said it would take 4-8 weeks. Taurus CS is the worst.

I have a g3c and I sent it twice that the repair because it didn't work well it was embedded they gave it back to me and it didn't work well and they didn't give what it was until they realized that it was the trigger and it wasn't the ammunition because I tried it with different ones I was disappointed

[@rudedawg5087]

I am a Taurus fan owning several models including a PT99AF, a .38spl and a .357 snub nose revolver, a Judge and a Circuit Judge but am really disappointed that in over 10 years still cannot obtain a rear sight assembly for my wife's Circuit Judge. The plastic sight assembly literally broke into pieces the first time we tried to adjust it. I have contacted customer service countless times being told the rear sight assembly is not available and they can't get it but to keep checking back. I was wanting to add a TX22 Competition SRC to the collection but am hesitant.

[@vanpittman5034]

I have the g2c and it is a good pistol 🔫 for the buck I have made a video for it and done some improvements to also plus used the g3c t.o.r.o slide on the g2c frame 😉 and it works perfectly so if you have a g2c from Bainbridge Georgia then the g3c t.o.r.o slide will work but I wish 🤞 that you guys 👦 can change the trigger on this one 😉

เรื่องอะไหล่Taurusที่หายากยังไม่ใช่ปัญหาใหญ่ ที่เป็นปัญหาหลักๆคือโควตาที่กฎหมายประเทศไทยจำกัดการนำเข้าค่ะ ที่ทำให้ปืนมีราคาแพงเวอร์ การจะนำอะไหล่เข้า บางอย่างถึงขั้นนับรวมกับโควตาปืนเลย หมายถึงนับเป็นปืนอีกกระบอกนึงเลย ทำให้ร้านปืนเสียโควตา ทางร้านถึงไม่อยากจะรับผิดชอบในเรื่องนี้เท่าไหร่

I'm holding out on a GX4X toro. The GX4 TORO with a G3 grip. 15+1.

[@TheRange7]

It's called the GX4 Carry. I want one but it isn't available without a manual safety which makes it a no go for me. I know many think that's the wrong approach, but it works for me and that's all that counts.

[@jirasaksitthiwong4119]

It seems good but here in Thailand we bought Taurus 6 times price up from USA but we do not have any your spare part here even your Thais brand ambassador, he had to find for Transfer Bar done by local maker instead of factory parts. It is our suffering too much though we favor on your brand too much.

Sent a Taurus back for service in 2000, took months to get it back. There excuse? Were having an issue getting the part! Haven't bought a Taurus since. Only other firearm manufacture that was even worse? Remington. Taurus quality control is a joke, having recall issues since 1997 which is still happening in 2024 with some of their GX4 pistols. If Taurus can't fix it they need to stop making firearms or lose their licenses to make and import firearms!
