Taurus G2c is the only gun you'll ever need, it truly is a masterpiece.💯 #Masterpiece

It's one of the best in It's class, but a masterpiece is definitely stretching it.

I have had the PT111 G2 for over 5 years. It’s been to the range many times without any FTF or FTE. It’s been worth every penny spent! 😉 love my Taurus! ❤️

[@blankeny]

When the G-2-C came out, I purchased one just because I liked the fit and price range. I didn't need another subcompact 9m.m. but it was attractive to me. After taking it to the range, I fell in love with this little weapon. . .

Have had mine for about a year...slide was not returning forward completely at first. Took it apart cleaned and lubricated the rails, fires flawlessly now. I noticed when I first took it apart it was dirty and pretty dry..love this gun

[@richardlahan7068]

Yep. There's always a qualifier if it's an affordable weapon that works the way it's supposed to.

[@CoastShuttle]

Compared to Sig Sauer, it most definitely is way more affordable. If you get your panties in a twist with someone pointing that out, that is your own personsal issue. Not sure what else to tell you, cupcake.

[@jamesdixon6332]

I just bought the G2c as my first gun. Going into it, I wanted something that I would enjoy using and that my wife would be comfortable shooting as well. Needless to say, after we both have fired several hundred rounds with it, we both love it and I know I didn't make a bad choice with this gun. Thanks for your review and stay safe out there.

[@houstoner]

I love my G2C for daily carry. I have a few other guns I carry as well, Glock, Kimber, H&K, but though it is the cheapest in my collection, the Taurus has been the choice for about 4 months now. It's small form, easy to conceal, comfortable, fires smoothly, it's all around a great little gun. Also being on the thin side (I'm 6'6 and weigh about 160) it doesn't dig into my hip and I can wear it all day and I forget it's there. Older vid, the G3C is out now, but 2022, you still can't go wrong with a G2C. One tip, oil it right out the box, mine felt 'dry' but after a little Hoppes it slides smooth a butter.

[@ohiobassangler8781]

A lot of people might think I’m crazy but I absolutely love the trigger on this gun. Bought this gun for $240. A lot of fun for a little price. For all the people who don’t own this gun, I would highly recommend it. Don’t let the price and the brand turn you away!!

[@sonofmandalore]

Buddy of mine bought one, I tried it and fell in love. Its a quality firearm that can compete with more premium handguns in its class but cost half as much. Needless to say I am getting one for myself very soon.

[@ptrax8468]

Obviously the new people at Taurus took the best of everything around them while rounding out the G2C. It's a Glock + S&W with a 1911 style safety. 12 rounds. And it shoots well! The long trigger take-up to the wall is exactly what I want in a carry pistol. Re-strike capability. Conceals very well. Pricing this pistol around $200 was genius move by Taurus...they are snatching up market share with undeniable price point value.

[@j.k.2224]

p trax you are the man! That's exactly what is needed for carry, for the many! Hopefully fast resets like I seen on videos is also real. Very impressed at fast shooting rates down range on some videos. Waiting for my new one. $189.99 plus tax. Can't pass that up even for carry for my wife!

[@j.k.2224]

p trax Does it fire fast with short trigger resets? It looks like it can be cycled very fast on videos.

[@ptrax8468]

Yes, very fast. The reset position becomes reflex. And the recoil absorbs well with the springs, weight, and balance. Taurus did their homework with this pistol.

[@KSGunGuy01]

Well said. It’s a great gun indeed. Thank you and cheers!

[@josephpacchetti5997]

Great video, I was sold on this gun before I ever got it and you reinforced my decision. Thanks, Keep up the good work. Pacchetti out.

Purchased the G2c after looking at a lot of videos and am extremely pleased with the quality I received for a very low price. Thanks for your excellent review of this very nice gun!

[@MyJoker1967]

I purchased the G2C about 4 yrs ago. Installed the stainless steel guide rod, stainless steel striker guide and a stainless finish barrel and I love it. Put over 1500 rounds without any hiccups. Awesome gun!!! 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

[@dtmjax5612]

You have to dry fire it just to field strip it, so no worries there. I’m a Glock guy, and I still am, but this is one of the most impressive pieces I’ve come across in a long, long time...especially considering it costs about half of what my carry gun G-43 does. So impressed, I’ve got two of them in the safe.

[@rickstephens4490]

I got my G2c about 3 months ago and have about 300 rounds through it so far. I love the gun. Fits my hand well and is reliable; no jams or undo stoppages. Would recomend to anyone looking for a smaller gun on a budget; a tick over $200 new in the box.

[@KSGunGuy01]

That’s awesome! Thank you and cheers!

[@kingbaldwiniv5409]

I have a PT 111 gen 2 and it has been a gem! It is the same pistol. The trigger dingus is fairly particular, you really need to be sure to depress it. Do NOT get the ProMag 32 round magazine, it is inconsistent functioning from pistol to pistol. Although the sites themselves are plastic, the exterior frame of the rear sights is metal. A lot of outlets sell these for $200. I have been very happy with mine and I probably put just under a thousand rounds down range with it. As far as I'm concerned, for the price, size, weight, trigger, safety, capacity, and reliability, this was the pistol of the year. Of course, since it was an expensive and a Taurus, a lot of guns knobs just turn their noses up at it if they even knew that it existed. Those of us that are cost-benefit shoppers were aware of this, gave it a shot, and were rewarded with a great find.

[@KSGunGuy01]

Well said King! I agree that more people should give it a try. I think they would be pleasantly impressed as I have been. An excellent pick up indeed. Thank you and cheers!

[@jlogan2228]

I admit I was the same til I borrowed a friend's and carried it for a week and did some range time and drills. I was gonna buy another Glock or mp to keep in my glove box full time but I ended up buying two of these instead one for the car and one to keep hidden in my living room in case I couldn't get to the ones in my bed room My brother gave me some grief and talked about how how o had one failure to ejects out of 500 rounds (note that it was near the very end of that run and probably was something with the round itself) and I'm like dude...when the hell do you expect me to get in a 500 round fire fight with a rinky dink handgun ? Better yet when do you expect me to NOT have a clean and oiled carry option?

[@kingbaldwiniv5409]

@Apple Lysol, mine requires that you hold in the bottom of the magazine, it moves a quarter inch up, then it will cycle rounds. I keep it in memoriam to never buy Pro Mag products.

[@troy9er]

Nice video, I enjoyed it so much I had to watch again. I bought my PT 111 G2 actually in 2015 it has been a really good gun. I preciously posted that mine was 3 years old, actually I think it’s almost 5 years old!! Been very happy with it. Shooting off the super short reset is sweetness! What a great gun.

I just got mine the day before you published this video and I shot it today. I put about 150 rounds of 124 gr. and 115 gr. Aguila, Magtech, Perfecta and Herters (all brass ammo) through from 4 different magazines without any problems. Two of the factory, Taurus magazines I bought from Academy for $54.00, delivered, for both mags.. They are marked made in the USA, while the magazines that came with the gun are marked, made in Brazil. The American made magazines have a more seamless, seam in the back, but otherwise are identical. Like you, I'll be putting some more rounds through it before carrying it.

[@chadho54]

looks like a great little gun with just the matte black. stainless is a nice option too i love both looks

[@FacultyFan]

This is like the Glock, but actually perfected. I have *NEVER* been a fan of the "No Safety" feature of the Glock. I know, the tactical folks will tell me that will "get me killed" but I'm far more likely to shoot myself with an accidental trigger pull (either by the trigger being caught on something or just pressure applied to the trigger area accidentally) than I am to die from a 1 second flip of a safety switch when I draw the pistol. Plus, I learned on 1911s, so this isn't a foreign concept to me. Everyone seems shocked that Taurus makes good guns. My father owned their revolvers, I own a 617 and have never had any issues with them. While they are "budget friendly" that sure as hell doesn't make them cheap. In my mind, maybe it means we are being over-charged for similar pistols with similar features.

[@caseywarren7426]

@@FacultyFan Combat veteran here, You are mostly right. I had my rifle on safe when I went out on patrols. Never did I regret having to flick the safety to start firing. its a split second slower. but it can save you if for instance you fall or stumble or have to jump a ditch and the gun lands wrong.... Its a personal choice. Most of the "Tacticool" guys have never been on a 2 way range in any meaningful way.

It's a fabulous firearm! I have the PT111G2 and it straight rocks at the range. You won't regret the purchase. I bought mine for my wife. She picked it out and then said that it was to big for her to carry comfortably, so I happily took it over. I thought it was a bit small at first and it took some getting used to the long trigger, but after a few mags I was hooked.

This is a great gun. I had a couple rounds of Winchester steel case ammo stick in the chamber (did the same thing in other guns as well), but otherwise flawless function after getting close to 1000 rounds. The rear sight kept losing elavtion adjustment so Taurus sent me a new one, but I went ahead and bought the Lakeline fiber optic sights and have forgotten about how terrible the factory ones were. I have complete faith this firearm will work if I ever need it to. It works, it's comfortable, fun to shoot and the triggers on comparable guns at twice the price are far from perfect as well. What's not to love?

The G2C, for the most part, is the same as the G2. The main, and best difference, is the lack of that locking system in the slide. They ditched it completely on the G2C. The little things are the roll marks on the slide and the grip texture is a little more aggressive than the G2.

[@gordol66]

Newbie here, the G2C (silver slide, TEN round mags) is my first firearm, I got it a week ago, so the only comparisons I have are range rentals before that, a couple of Glocks, including the 48 and a larger one I don't recall the model number. I like the G2c. I liked the 48 too, but at a significant price difference for the same performance? Being a newbie, I have no real experience to compare the triggers, so to ME the trigger is mostly fine, and my theory on the long travel is due to the double-strike capabilities: to allow the double-action without needing a heavy pull. The wall, or breakpoint is well-defined, I was able to quickly pull to that point to be ready once I centered my aim. My only complaint after some range time and dry-firing, is actually the safety blade in the trigger. It doesn't sit flush when pulled so it does feel like a blade after a while.

Taurus needs to fix the magazine pricing. If this is going to be a carry gun. Most recommend cycling the mags every 6 months. I would even prefer a spring option but wolf springs doesnt make one for this gun. I think this is a mitake considering the popularity of this gun. $60 tp replace the mags and I paid $179 for the pt111 g2. Other guns have much cheaper mag options.

Just bought one yesterday just waiting on BG screen it will be my first handgun can’t wait to take it to the range I paid $276 after tax

[@longbow60]

I have found that my 18 round canik mags also work with my PT-111.

[@KSGunGuy01]

Great to know! Thank you and cheers!

[@garageguy879]

Aren't those mags made by Mec-Gar?If so,that's an even better deal.

[@OriginsOfSymmetry010]

If sig226 mags work in the taurus g2c would the 226 mags work on the canik?

[@ColeDedhand]

Funny I never thought to try my Canik mags in my G2C. But yes they do fit and feed. They don't lock back on empty and they don't drop free. So not perfect but usable.

[@deanriver9388]

I noticed the same thing. Bonus

[@francisdrake8742]

hey $200, 12+1 second strike capability, the right size and takes all kinds of ammo. I would love an aftermarket trigger but it is a good gun.

[@KSGunGuy01]

Well said! Thank you and cheers!

[@j.k.2224]

Do a google search for Taurus G2C upgrades, there is a carbon trigger replacement for $20 right now. It's supposed to remove at least 20 % of the huge take up on this pistol when you install it. Also nice replacement stainless steel spring assemblies and springs. I forget their name, something like Lakeline. I think their in Florida, not sure though.

[@francisdrake8742]

Jim Kosz Excellent ,thank you. I got the guide road from LakeLand but I was not aware of the new trigger, I will look into it. Thanks a lot for the info!

[@j.k.2224]

Your welcome! Pull the trigger on it now (HA, HA) for $20 introductory offer now cause it is back to $25 soon they say.

[@j.k.2224]

@@francisdrake8742 It is quite a bit of disassembly work to change it out, but install videos are good to follow. Only have to do it once. Should be a very noticeable change they say...20% difference I think. Good Luck, waiting for my new G2C to arrive next week.

[@JHENDRIXROCS]

Excellent review and demonstration!

The striker guide is a must, trigger pull will be extra silky,Very smooth.

I don’t get winks when I buy my fingernail polish. I need to step up my game. I have Gen 5 G19, P365 for edc and now I think I found my truck gun. 💗

Haha!! The G2C would be a spot on truck gun indeed. Been thinking of revisiting the G19 Gen 5 and just may pull the trigger on it. They are excellent guns. Thank you and cheers!

Beggars can’t be choosers and choosie Mothers choose Gif!! I love the trigger on my 3 year old PT111 G2. Mine has been perfect since day one!!! Best $270.00 gun purchase I have ever made. I bought my mine before the price dropped and I still think I got a great deal.

Love my G2C. It's my little buddy it goes with me everywhere !!!

[@josecolon7087]

Hi KS, I like to start saying that, although the G2C is fairly new to the market the PT111 is been out there for quite a while and there are tons and tons of reviews about it. I bought one some six months ago and before I did I watched every video on the web, so, at this point to talk about measurements and texture of the grips is out of it. By now the main issue is reliability and craftsmanship. Is it well made? It’s reliable? Can it become anyone’s EDC? It is obvious that a S&W, Sig, Colt and many other brands enjoy a far better reputation than Taurus, but, is this particular gun doing the job, yes or not! Well from my point of view and experience with this tool it has demonstrated to be 100% reliable after 400+ rounds with out one hiccup using all kinds of amo, cheap and expensive ones, and is it still in one piece with minimal to none wear on it’s components. The trigger, definitely it is not the best, nothing I cannot live with but is it not the greatest. Something people have to stop saying in the reviews is “for the money “. I think that this is an awesome gun, no matter how much I paid for, it’s got very many features that not may expensive guns in it’s category have. 12+1 in a very small, shootable, double strike capability, Reliable and concealable weapon it’s a lot. And you get all this in a very affordable package.This gun is worth every penny you invest in it to make it better, that is if you want to, I can live with mine just the way it is.

[@kingbaldwiniv5409]

Agreed, it is flat better than the Sig 365 and every other sub compact as far as I am concerned. . . considering the price. Remind me how many rounds you get in a PPS, G43, or 9mm Shield. . . that is what I thought. It has already been proven to be more reliable than the Sig, that much is obvious. It holds 12+1, a pretty impressive package. I replaced the guide rod and recoil spring. I need to buy more of them.

[@KSGunGuy01]

Thanks for the feedback. Clearly you like the gun. Although you have experience with the PT111 and G2C, others may not, so giving the stats is not “out of it”. And, the G2C is fairly new so it’s even more relevant. I try to consider all aspects of guns I review so it can be as universal as possible for a wide audience. As for “for the money” it’s important that people understand this is a budget gun, so the features become more critical and it’s good to highlight the positives as I did in the video. I stay unbiased and transparent in my reviews to ensure accuracy and limit criticism unless it’s unavoidable. Cheers

Being a Taurus I was apprehensive, but so far my G2c seems to have been a good purchase. On ebay you can buy a flat floorplate for your concealed carry magazine.

[@liamalepta8003]

I own a pt111 G2c, love it. Every single firearm buff say the same exact things about this pistol, they love it and have never had any issue like misfires or ejection problems, every single shooter has found it to be extremely reliable and of course a very fun fire arm at the range..probably because they can just fire away with out the cursing about jams. I have several different CC , but this Taurus has become my #1 always goes with me.

[@KSGunGuy01]

That’s awesome! Thank you and cheers!

[@liamalepta8003]

!!!!! WARNIMG !!!!! Dont do what i just did today at the range. I went to shooters world, nice indoor range here inner city Phoenix, I was to choked up on the handle, as the carrier recocked in mid fire, the bottom of the carrier, the carbon fiber plastic, is very angular sharp, as my pt111 fired, the carrier, skimmed across my thumb knuckle. Cut me pretty bad, most other firearms, this area is not as jagged sharp. Ive fired over 1000 rounds in this firearm, never had that happen before with this pistol. I did something similar when in the military with the M-16, cut the hell out of my hand with lower retriever trying to field strip on the range..I bled lots, but hey, im military, had worse in my butthole LOL, BUT HEY GUYS, watch that carrier...or SLIDE ASSEMBLY, if you notice the bottom, how it catches on the slide of the frame, the plastic track, it will come right across your bare thumb knuckle, its very sharp, i may file it down some for safety, most fire arms have some kind of system like this, but not so sharp. I learned to choke it up for the best possible grip and steady my firing position, always two handed, never fire a 9mm luger round with one hand, its way to powerful for one handed.

Incredibly smart of TAURUS gun company to knowingly sell a gun worth well over $400 for half the price.. Results? Controversial and impressive results.. In turn, quantity over quality income for the company while all happy customers for an under priced gun that performs like a much more expensive / higher end gun.. In turn, a win win situation.. everyone's happy

There will be reports on almost any firearm out there, just hope not to see them en masse like the P365 has had. Teething problems with a Sig at that price point is not so good, though.

[@marksmindofsurvival5346]

I've had 3 Taurus' with the PT111 G2 my most current and its my EDC. I stand behind Taurus who sells quality without brandnameitis. That's an inflammation of the price (substantially over quality) because of the brand name stamped on the side. Ok, I'l say it...the Glock craze is over rated. The fact that military selected a Sig doesn't make it better than a good deal the government got. If you want the right price point for a quality firearm, Taurus is the brand. And no, I don't work for Taurus, don't get free stuff from them and I'm not looking for anything from them. Just giving my humble opinion.

[@KSGunGuy01]

Very good points and thank you for sharing! Thank you and cheers!

[@jlogan2228]

Glock is like the iPhone of the gun world. Every new gen is almost the exact same thing as before and they rely on the legacy of years ago and brand loyalty. When the gen 5 came out I looked at it I looked t it's price and I'm like...hmm I can buy a MUCH better hk sig etc for this price or I can see less money and get roughly the same gun out of a sw or Springfield Glock is getting into dangerous waters where it's not going to be high quality enough to merrit its cost compared to other options in that price range But it's going to be too expensive when compared to the guns of similar ergo and out of the box options that are hundred of dollars cheaper Yes they are reliable but how often do you find yourself in a situation where you're going to shoot 1000 rounds without cleaning or oiling your gun? How often are you going to dunk your gun into a mud puddle and have to shoot? How often are you gonna drop 500 bucks on a gun that you then need to drop more money in after market parts to make it's erognomics or aesthetics match the next cheaper option? Much like iPhone people are waking up realizing just bc it says Glock and costs $600 doesn't mean it's automatically the best

I'm in the market for a CCW/ range warrior and this came up in my search. The length of the take up actually sets my mind at ease that it won't go off unintentionally. I'm strongly considering it.

[@stephenwelch3173]

Recently bought a G2C - my first handgun. Had problems with the first 150 rounds using Fiocchi FMJ. Called Taurus and they acknowledged the pistol can be a little picky about ammo. One of their recommendations was Blazer Brass. Shot 150 rounds of that through it without a problem. Had an experienced shooter fire some rounds with it - he really liked it. I have found it easy to shoot accurately, really like the trigger and I think the sights are very good. It's a little large and heavy for CCW in central Florida given the heat and typical Florida uniform (shorts and a tee). I'm getting a Kel Tec P-3AT for pocket carry. The G2C will be for home defense and fun.

[@ILeftRules]

Stephen Welch .. I use blazer brass in mine and not had a a problem. Also, Winchester white box works good. And I can get the Winchester at walmart.

[@ohiobassangler8781]

Federal premium is really good too. Although I prefer blazer brass. Sometimes I’ll get a box of both and go to the range. Not one failure yet. 200 rounds in

picked one up a few days ago, not bad at all. put 100 rounds , only issue was the loaded indicator that comes up, when rapid firing it blew out and up, was still in the slide with the pin, took it out, left it out, another 50 rounds, not one problem after that.for the price and able too be an EDC, very happy. thanks for the review and keep up the great work.

I have the G2C and I love it! I think that this is an improvement over the PT111 or the G2 in that it DOESN'T have the Taurus locking safety system on it.. I was never a fan of the safety system and am glad that the G2C was built without it. The pistol has performed flawlessly and it is a real good looking pistol for the price. Very happy with mine and very impressed with your video!! Subscribed... keep up the great work!
