Taurus G3c Initial Impressions Review and Upgrades

[@sirhumanoid4174]

I love thumb safety. Just another measure of security and safety which treasures less than a second to deactivate but can be lifesaver in case of user mistake or oversight.

[@countrygrandpa]

Totally agree. I have thumb on my m&p also. I've trained to take the safety off as I'm pulling my pistol from The holster

[@kayemkm1703]

I absolutely agree, I previously mentioned that I couldn't picture having a pistol without a safety on it, that's just crazy to me (from a safety aspect) to each his own of course🤷‍♀️

[@kennethcurtis1856]

There's a reason the military requires thumb safety's on their handguns.

[@tommyivison7423]

@@kennethcurtis1856 I was thinking the exact same thing. I learned from my old Army days that the safety is your friend. Most people who rant agiest thumb safety's have never been in a gunfight.

[@cdle007]

Because military personnel are dumb.

[@jayteefishing1543]

Just so everyone is aware, the reset on this weapon is much better than he’s claiming and showing. It’s actually super short and honestly just as good as my glocks stock triggers. This weapon has the ability to double strike so in the event you have a light primer strike, you don’t have to clear the malfunction but rather just pull the trigger again. That acts like a double action but only if the firing pin hasn’t been reset. That’s my understanding of how this weapon works.

[@terryeibeck8036]

Hell not only that the other day when I was buying my daughter a G3c I checked the trigger pull on six or seven different g3s and I couldn't believe every time I picked one up the trigger pull was LIKE BUTTER the best trigger I've ever pulled on any pistol under $500 Four or five years ago I bought her a Tikka T3 25-06 which has a tremendous trigger the surprise I had then is the same as I had when pulling the trigger on those G3c counting the one I bought her HELL I got out the door with $280 spent and a $50 mail in rebate still to come 😁 all around PS I walked in the store knowing I was going to buy a G2c but I swear the trigger pull on that gun had to be close to 8-9 lb$ Needless to say there was no way I was going to give that to her

[@jayteefishing1543]

@@terryeibeck8036 Right. I agree with you there. Very good buy and an even better value. It’s hard to beat this little gun that’s for sure but in my opinion, the g2c is a better all around gun than the g3c. I own both and I like the g2 better. It has better sights and I like the frame better but other than that, they’re the same damn thing basically. Taurus has done what any good company would do, they listened to the consumer and they delivered. Lately, Taurus has really stepped it up and impressed the hell out of me. A few years ago, I wouldn’t touch a damn Taurus. No way. I gave it chance though just because of multiple good reviews and I’m glad I did. I’ve put it in the hands of quite a few new gun owners who love it.

[@dustydav9816]

I agree.. I'm actually a big fan of taurus because when I started really getting into firearms I was big into CC on a budget. I carried the G2 PT111 for 5 years. I now own the G3 & G3c along with several other taurus guns. But I agree that the reset is better than mentioned. Not knocking this guys I like his videos.

@@dustydav9816 they’ve stepped up their game lately. I’ve been impressed.

[@terryeibeck8036]

@@jayteefishing1543 I agree with most of what you said but if you got a g2c that is equal to or anything close to what the G3c is then you ended up with a UNICORN because I swear I could not find NOT EVEN ONE out of the FIVE or SIX I picked up that had a trigger that would allow ANYONE to be accurate at the range Until the last 7 8 years I could care less if I ever owned a pistol my love is LONG RANGE SHOOTING and hunting / taking VOMITS and or DEER @ EXTREME DISTANCES. That said you can't have a trigger like the g2c has and become a great shot NO WAY‼️ And if you don't think it translates then here's an example years ago when Bass pro shop opened their new facility in Cincinnati Ohio back in the 90s I believe it was I went there on opening day they had a simulated pistol accuracy shooting display setup got winner got $100 and I OUTSHOT EVERYONE that came through the building that entire weekend That's coming from someone that knows how to squeeze a trigger & at long ranges watch the animal FALL going one further I only owned One pistol up until that time and it was a cheap little 22 revolver that had been in my sock drawer since I can remember I don't think I ever even shot a box of shells through it the entire time I owned it Like I said earlier they never peaked my interest I lived in the country & didn't worry about break-ins and other than killing a chicken / turkey off the farm for supper that's about as much use as I had for it

[@webeewatchin1977]

I would rather have the thumb safety and not need it than need the thumb safety and not have it.

[@ItzyaboyLandyn]

i love the thumb safety what i do when i go out and train is as im drawing from my holster as soon as my hand goes on the grip i flip the safety off as im pulling the gun up and forward. You just need to train and get use to it and your muscles memory will kick in👍🏻

[@jamesnelson6513]

If you’ll measure the trigger weight after you rack the slide you’ll find it’s about 1-1/2 lbs lighter. The way your checking it. Is only the weight you would pull in the event of a light hammer strike or dry fire session.

[@blakebickel8117]

I'm glad someone said this

[@kylejohnson1308]

Yes I couldn't believe he didn't figure that out. I mean good God!!!

[@Logan-te3iq]

The reset is actually rlly short you just have to have the trigger still pulled then Rack slide to feel the reset.

[@alanwhitsitt5196]

Glad you mentioned that. I was about to. The actual reset is very short. It's one of the things I loved about the G3c. The "second strike capability" requires the trigger to go almost all the way back out.

[@nimbly1693]

You'd think someone who feels they have something to offer the gun community to the point they'd make a KZbin, and has used a G2c as well would know that.

[@taeedeniro]

I was about to say the same thing, the reset is actually short af. Great review though

[@Martin_Steven]

You'll never feel the trigger the way he tested unless you're dry firing the gun 🤣....gotta love educators that aren't educated

[@rudyv6100]

Yes…the actual reset is short and a very light crisp trigger pull…it’s tons better than any other firearm I own other than maybe my Canik…

[@gunsnrosas2154]

I despise the "fine motor skill" argument against a gun safety. The M-4 /AR-15 also has a selector switch (safety) that you need to engage to fire a round. Speaking from actual combat experience, disengaging a safety as you simultaneously raise your firearm to the ready is quite doable, even as you're getting shot at or moving to cover. It's how the military trains it's soldiers to fight. So train how you'll fight, and you'll fight how you train🤷

[@ericg7183]

You are measuring the trigger reset incorrectly. Squeeze the trigger until it breaks. Maintain constant pull, and rack the slide only 1/4 of the way. Then you can release the trigger slowly to measure the true reset point. It is VERY short.

[@williambotts635]

The reset is short after the slide puts a new round in the chamber. Also you checked the trigger pull in double action, you should check it in single action.

[@kylejohnson1308]

Exactly. SMH 🤦

[@dfwii]

Regarding your comments on the "loaded chamber indicator", I respect your preference. But there are two things to consider. 1) I don't believe the goal is to be able to see it while aligning the sights on a target and 2) you stated other manufacturers use an indicator at the end of the slide to tell you a round is chambered. Actually that indicator at the end of the slide, found on other guns, tells you the striker is cocked and not that a round has been chambered.

[@keithtate1241]

Well said.

[@tylernicholasroberts]

Yup!!!!

[@tfleedsjr]

Loaded Barrel Indicator is GREAT for what goes bump in the middle of the night. Imagine you're in a low / no light situation or you don't want to take your eyes off your current focal point, etc... run your support hand across the top of your slide and you instantly know if you're chambered or not. 🤔

[@kaostheory2940]

On your problem with the light digging into your thumb take your little needle files out and just clean off the edge of the lever to round it down so it's not digging into your thumb that's what I did with mine works great

Great review, answered a lot of the questions I had about upgrades.

[@Ian-yw9ur]

Sao trigger from keep tinkering. I use the pseudo backstrap on mine and it's great for bigger hands. Has a nice travel and I've put several rounds with fast shooting and normal. Not to mention that if you get a dead round it's easier to rack and keep going opposed to smashing that primer over and over. I'd also suggest lakeline llc for the recoil spring upgrade and firing pin guide. Makes this a solid cc protection piece.

[@scottsmith4710]

I feel the same way you do. I like to have a lot of mags too. That’s why I bought the G3C to go along with the G2C because the mags work in both and I shoot the bill out with either pistol. Awesome pistols and great shooters! Awesome review buddy!👍

Your review was helpful in making my decision. There is one thing I would disagree with you on your review. Using the second strike feature to dry fire train is not realistic. The trigger pull is not the same of course and the reset is much longer. I have also noted that the striker hit on the second trigger pull is not nearly as strong as a first trigger pull.

I'm old school trained on holding the pistol with both hands. I haven't embraced the whole thumb resting on the slide method so I might be okay. If it's a problem, I'll put it on my much larger S&W M&P .40 I was gifted when I retired from LE in NC. All in all, I'm satisfied with my G3C even with the slight increase in recoil compared to the 9mm.

I've never seen one without a safety unless it's one of those hybrids like the G3c XL or whatever.

[@stephen489]

This is my opinion, but the light isn't the problem when it comes to it hitting your thumb. Your thumb shouldn't be there. That pad is for left handed shooters to rest their trigger finger on until they're ready to move it to the trigger itself. It's called the Memory Pad. You can see it's on both sides. Just suggesting trying a different grip.

[@rcollins1202]

My new G3c has several problems right out of the box. I contacted Taurus and they said to send it back. Taurus does not provide a shipping label like other companies do. You have to pay the shipping back. That starts to eat up any savings I got over a S&W Shield. ☹️

I would like to see g3c odg with toro slide with optic on it

[@iokepa611]

You can purchase the toro slide with mounting plates from Taurus for $149.99

[@bobbydynamite]

Thank you for the video. Well done. Very thorough.

[@jimdriscoll5146]

I have a G2 and G3 and prefer the G2 loaded indicator because in the dark I can confirm camber loaded with a simple touch. Also, you didn't assess the trigger pull accurately at all. It didn't bother you at the range because it was probably only ab out 5 1/2 lb if you rack the slide. Also, the reset is very short after the slide is activated. I carry with one in the pipe so it is cocked, so the pull is about 5 1/2 lb. Also, I like the manuel safety and have my thumb on the safety anytime it leaves the holster so it is automatic and I don't have to think about it.

Lake Line does trigger upgrades for G2C and G3C

[@edctvbytommyviola9119]

Love your channel

[@dustincantrell5078]

I actually just bought the G3 In desert tan with a black slide it was my first gun purchase I can’t wait to shoot it

[@Jadegoodman15]

Your judging the reset way wrong. Keep your finger on the trigger after to work the slide then go forward you will see the real reset is very very short. Now most people will not be able to do that in a live fire fight I’m sure.

[@kylejohnson1308]

He doesn't have a clue. And he says he already has the G2c gun. 🤷

[@ThatGuy-zt6po]

Taurus is screaming to you all that you don't need to spend 6 to 700 dollars on a concealed carry. Mine just feels better to me than my P365. The feel, and once I made my unnecessary upgrades using my Dremel and orders from Lakeline LLC. I felt like I was king fish of concealed carry at the range. Feels better than my Glock 19 too. For the price and a few minor tweaks this baby is a steal. Don't overthink it.

[@edledoux2788]

Even though the loaded chamber indicater is not visible when aiming, they allow you to check the chamber status by feel, which could be helpful in the dark. Also, the red dot on the rear of a Canik shows if the striker is cocked and does not indicate whether or not there is a round in the chamber.

[@MrGsteele]

The only thing missing in the Taurus DA/SA guns is a decocker; that would be ideal: rack, load, decock, and you are ready for a double action first round without having to remember to release the safety. Perfect.

[@raphaelmiguel9202]

Mine is having light primer strike issues. Great video by the way. Liked and subscribed

[@Giitzerland]

When I go to the range, I just move the Baldr forward, zero issues.

[@markcunningham6086]

Ok....im 2 years late but i did do all those upgrades except for that front sight. In an adrenaline rush encounter, the front sight is the last thing im looking at. No time for that. Bang Bang first, target hit or miss, cover next, its not target practice. Oh well....just me. Fun at the range.

[@Raphael-eu7cw]

I own g2c i had it cut and colored for holosun 507k love it in bronze. Short flat Trigger upgrade along with Lakeland upgrades. Love it. I also own G3 Toro. Ah hate the plate system i would have got a normal cut. Its probably getting put in an MCK anyway. Exelent: Galloway Precision Asmund Short Stroke Trigger

[@ionracer3284]

Make sure you disassemble, clean and oil before using. Somtimes there are lil casting debris in there.

[@Bill23799]

Thanks for the informative video sir. I am considering buying Taurus G3C. My local sporting good store had them for $249.99 and Taurus this month has a $25.00 mail in rebate. I have never owned a striker fired pistol . I have been more of a 1911 and revolver guy. The Taurus G3C just seems too good a deal to pass up. I do not a weapon on my body as I have always felt my appearance was enough to ward off evil doers. Like Don Cervantes , Man of La Mancha, I am a knight of the woeful countenance.

[@antonchigurh7820]

I have the G3 and G3c and love them both...

[@johnholcomn8560]

Excellent video. Thanks.

[@crd1105]

Gr8 content! I'm new @ the gun 🔫 world! Movin frm nyc to tn ..but I'm lovin this firearm..for my new home ! Thank u

[@dhoff82]

so i can get the g3c for 299 and the Toro version is only 350. which would you go for out of curiosity it will be a ccw my first so not sure how much a sight would be needed

[@fat_basturd5345]

I got the G3c toro off of gunbroker for $255.00. Shop around.

[@VonGoth]

@@fat_basturd5345 A G3C Toro for 255.00 is a great Value no other manufacturer can dream of getting close to.

[@andyseitz3051]

If you shop around, you should be able to find the G3c for around 250. I got mine for $240 out the door, sold off the 3 10 round mags it came with for $75, then added 12 rounders since they're legal here. I already had a bunch from my G2C anyway.

[@lastoutcast1099]

I've put about 500 to 600 rounds through mine with only 4 malfunctions light primer strikes, likely ammo good affordable gun

[@Lord_darkside74]

Question where did you get the lazer flashlight combo with the apindex holster?
