Taurus G2C G3C Comparison Review EDC 8 Key Differences

I have carried the Taurus G2C for the past 2 to 3 years as my EDC Appendix and pocket pistol. I have been wanting the G3C without the manual safety and scooped this one up from Bass Pro Shops used for only 179. Here are the 8 Key differences I would like to talk about.
#1 Safety
#2 Front Serration
#3 Sights
#4 Trigger
#5 Grip Texture
#6 Loaded Chamber Indicator
#7 Price
#8 Compact Size Pointer & Hollow Points
(Not so much a difference but a scrambled together pointer to keep in mind)
If interested in the G3C or G2C Light Compatible holster I did a review video on it here and the link is in it's description.

Thanks!

I like the G2C better just because i like the loaded when up plus i like where the SN is located instead of a cut out on the side like The G3C has I've seen alot of people who carry it get alot of dirt stuck in the cut out which is a pain to dig that out not to mention the look of it

179?!?!?!? That’s the steal of the year right there 😂🤙🏽 at my bass bro they got for 270🤦🏽‍♂️ I’m still thinking about picking one up I haven’t been to the store but I just saw it on the website

[@Shredderundergod]

Hahah no joke I wasn’t planning on buying a gun that day but how could you pass up such a good deal!? Oh wow I would keep an eye out for a good deal but in my opinion it’s easily worth 300. But for that price might as well spend a hundred more and get a Glock. Either way tho it’s a great little pistol so you won’t be disappointed. Check some pawn shops as well as lots of people sell them cheap. The older series like my g2c are just as good if you buy a keep tinkering trigger for 35 bucks

I have the full size g3 the spectrum the g2s and g2c I bought a new g3c and didn’t like the fact it had issues loading th digging crown I carry sold it to my gun smith for 100 bucks all the rest of my Taurus fire a m are completely reliable and I carry them when not carrying my xd9

[@teddygraham8194]

A BULLET GO OFF WHEN IT WAS IN SAFTEY AND YOU STILL KEPT IT ? NOPE U JUST SOLD ME ON NOT GETTING THAT THANK YOU

[@Shredderundergod]

Can’t argue with that. If I didn’t like its ergonomics so much I would sell it myself. The safety is the only problem and the g3c that I have doesn’t have one which removed that problem. But yeah it should be impossible for the g2c to shoot while on safety no matter how hard you pull the trigger

[@sebastianjiao1871]

I was wondering where did you buy your G3c for that low? Was it an online purchase? Thanks!

[@Shredderundergod]

It was sold at bass pro shops in Katy mills mall in Katy Texas. It looked brand new. I would def recommend used guns from bass pro shops.

Polish the feed ramp and it will cure the critical defense feeding issue with a full mag.

[@Shredderundergod]

OK awesome. I did polish it just last night as I was giving it a good cleaning and was seeing how shiny I could get it. I'll have to test it out. Thanks!

[@allenbolen9705]

You might want to try to order ammunition! I payed less for 50 rounds of Federal HST +p than the 25 CD. Free shipping if you order 200$ worth. Outdoor limited

[@Shredderundergod]

Thanks I’ll def grab some!

[@marvinsaintpreux4468]

The indicator on the G3C is on the side

[@Shredderundergod]

My g3c just has a hole on the top where you can see the bullet. Nothing on the side. Guess they change it up or something. Not sure what year mine is

[@rbm6184]

I won't buy or own a striker pistol without a manual safety. Something can snag on that trigger when its least expected and with a light sloppy single action striker a negligent discharge is more likely. I will say my G2c has never had any problems feeding hollow points or any type of ammo. I have heard that also about the G3c having feeding problems with hollow points. As far as holster fit I use leather so the manual safeties don't bother me like a rigid plastic holster would nor does leather poke me. Leather is more comfortable to me and its quieter and less bulky depending on the holster. For my G2c I use a Galco Stow N Go STO286 leather IWB that also fits my Bersa TPR9C that is my favorite sub compact. For OWB I use a Bulldog leather slide medium belt holster and it also fits both. My micro compact SIG P365 also has a manual safety and I use a Kusiak signature minimalist leather IWB holster. It will also fit in the OWB Bulldog slide holster just pushed down a little farther until it stops. I have a BugBite neoprene calf holster for the 365 used for large legged dress pants if I want.

[@Shredderundergod]

That sig is nice I would def like to get one. The stow and go looks like a good option and I will have to see if they have a light compatible version thanks again! I see what you mean about the safety but for me it feels safe to know its snapped in a good holster and that it is always ready to go warning me to be more careful when it comes to the safety. But to each their own. I still like the G2C but I just love it without the safety. The trigger is a bit harder to pull on the G3C as well. Wish I didn't have that hollow point issue but I will have to do some research and try a few different brands of ammo.

Never ♉️ Smiths are as low as you go for an reliable budget hollow eater,I’d stick to all the old hinge triggered smiths new/used (SD9VE 🪶👑/2.0 MPs/🛡,🛡+ )were tanks I don’t trust the newer smith/glock 🤣,the best budget EDC combo out SD9VE/🛡+TS but always MP/Glock for .40/.45/10mm, however the MP 3.6 2.0 compact/SC 😴👑 especially in .40 over glocks anyday, and the TS models best for niche carry/🚫holster situations but always keep few mic holsters,and the SD9VE tlr fits all MP full size tlr holsters

[@Shredderundergod]

Not gonna lie That sd9 ve looks like a decent pistol. Haven’t heard of it but yeah looks like a good comparison and I agree smith has a good name. I’ve owned 4 Taurus pistols for a while though and after so many trips to the range and so forth I really like them. I found the g3c for only 179 so at least I could put a few gallons in my truck lol. I’ll eventually upgrade but I can barely afford to pay attention at the moment. Try to find somebody review the g3c and not admit they like it. Hard to explain but maybe I’m just a cheap ass

[@kenshin034]

@@Shredderundergod never Taurus lowest you should ever go is S&W,the OG SD9ve is best new $350 max /(used $250 max + 2 mag )or an used MP 1.0/2.0s compacts/3.6s/🛡s are far better options than ♉️cause ♉️G3/3C + HST x🩸🐝Critical D =🚮🤣,leave them stock internally just stipple the untextured grip/finger rest/trigger pad/half-underguard, lights n sights shoot it till it’s smooth,that stock trigger is best don’t call SDs trainer glocks for nothing, it wears in perfect and safer for noobs/grapple fights/falls

[@kickadams8908ass]

If a round went off while the safety was on? I would never have a around in the chamber while carrying that firearm, which means that’s a firearm I would not carry

[@Shredderundergod]

That happened when I intentionally pulled the trigger hard though testing if the safety would work which it did not. That's why I switched to the g3c because the safety can't fail if it doesn't exist.

[@b3n10boyzyessah5]

Do they use the same mags? Thanks in advance

[@Shredderundergod]

Yezirr! They are exactly the same mags. That’s one of the nicest things about it. Now I have 5 mags ready to go. You can buy an extended mag which works for both as well if desired

[@b3n10boyzyessah5]

@@Shredderundergod Very nice. 👍

[@ArielSalinaspena]

What holster is that for the g3c

[@Shredderundergod]

I did a whole video review on it here kzbin.info/www/bejne/oZ-lXmSOaZise9Usi=tRJH2n_Vv6G4dfda and here's the link to buy it www.amazon.com/Holster-Valkyr

[@Shredderundergod]

If you go to that video and click the link from there it works but doesnt seem to work from this comment. Hope that helps tho. It was only 20 bucks on Amazon
