Got me one and I say honestly it’s by far the best Taurus pistol out there and it’s got a good trigger and a much more solid fit and feel than other models. Glad I ordered one.

[@twrol]

Saw the thumbnail and totally thought that was the double stack bersa I had been wishing for.

[@Lorenzo-fw3gx]

I had the same thought! Someone tell Bersa they need to make a BP9 double stack without messing with the trigger

[@greyman0000]

The TS9 has been available here in the Philippines since 2019, initially selected as the official duty sidearm of the Philippine National Police before it later became available in the local civilian market. The manual trigger safety can indeed be quite stiff out of the box, but it works just fine after activating it a few times.

[@GBGuns]

I've felt the Bubits safety on the BB6 and Canik TP9, this appeara to be just a piece of filler plastic and not an actual safety

[@greyman0000]

@@GBGuns I think the manual safety on your gun is defective, you should talk to the vendor about it. Or not, since it's just a redundancy.

[@leonardosesti2938]

Actually the safety is optional and your gun have only a cover

[@scottmackey4182]

Graham, I just want to thank you again for the amazing content you bring to the channel. You have the most unique models and brands than most of the KZbinrs out there and your reviews are consistently unbiased and helpful. Keep up the great work The Taurus TS9 is a nice piece! Glad it’s now available in the US.

Thank you

I'm excited. I hope this sells well and is another hit for Taurus.

[@rbm6184]

These are over production pistols so there won't be many available. Limited numbers of them.

[@JD-tn5lz]

No. There are just too many little things about this one that says that Taurus is slipping into their old bad habits.

[@rbm6184]

@@JD-tn5lz I disagree since this pistol has been out long before Taurus got new management in the US. Nor is this pistol a Taurus USA made pistol. It is a Taurus Brazilian made pistol.

[@GBGuns]

@rbm6184 correct

[@benretherford5194]

I believe the little hole at the back of the slide plate is the locking point keeping the plate held up. Same on the Mako and BB6 if I'm not mistaken. A punch to push it in should let you remove the plate and get access to the striker.

[@TocaFita]

Ts9 in Brazil is the go entry for us Brazilian in the IPSC/shooting sport, and the g2c got very popular due the price and size for concealed carry (only option for civilians). Great all around out of the box. For optics, most of the times we change the back sights for a sight plate for it.

Thanks I bought one for 260 great firearm and smooth action I practice takedown on the pistol it’s involved but not too bad

[@OperadorBR]

First review in the US for this gun I´ve seen so far.

[@paulbarnes2752]

I bought one a couple weeks ago (haven't shot it yet). Mine came with a manual. And it's one of those "rattles when you shake it" guns.

[@abovebeyondandforever6571]

"rattles when you shake it", uh oh! 😳

[@FernandoChaves]

Thank you! Great review! READ THIS PLEASE, SEE BELOW REGARDING YOUR MANUAL SAFETY. I have yet to read your article on this pistol. Mine did come with a manual. I believe your pistol should have as well. The fact that your pistol has a scratch and is missing the manual shows your pistol had been out of the box and handled a bit for some reason. The gap under your "safety" indicates handling as well. See the following. The ambidextrous slide stop/release and the manual safety are optional. My pistol is identical to yours. If you look at the tag on your box (there should be a tag), it will say "NON-MAN SAFETY". That's a polymer insert to cover the space where the safety would go. I spoke to Taurus and was told they aren't currently making any with the manual safety. AFAIK all the pistols that came to the US have no manual safety and have the ambi slide stop/release. I have seen a few of these blank inserts slightly bent, with a gap underneath like yours, probably from users trying to operate the safety. I RECOMMEND NOT TRYING TO FORCE IT AS YOU COULD FURTHER BEND IT OR MAYBE EVEN BREAK IT. The TS-9 is much more like the BB6 than it is like the Kimber. The TS-9 shares the modular striker assembly design with the BB6, as you demonstrated, while the Kimber uses a more common design similar to Glock et al, with a striker riding in a machined channel within the slide. Any pistol that has this was touched by Bubits design. If the Walther has it as you said, the patent was likely licensed from Bubits. As I understand it, the design allows the machining of the slide to be simplified. It can be done with a single type of milling machine instead of two or more types. The indent on the rear cover is the same as the BB6. Depress it with a punch to remove the cover and pull out the striker module. This is when you will realize that this pistol is almost identical to the BB6 in design and features if you take the BB6 slide apart as well. I have a video from Bubits himself showing exactly how that comes apart on the BB6 as well as explaining the design benefits. Yes, Bubits did intend to have no open space under that rear cover, like the BB6. Yes, it is intended to keep crud out. You will notice that there are no open slots on the bottom edge of the slide all the way around it. This is done with the same intention. I have a video of him talking about that as well. Incidentally I dry fired the heck out of mine for days before shooting it. The trigger definitely benefitted immensely from this, so my trigger was much better by the time I took the pistol to the range. Thank you again for the wonderful review. Your work is excellent and well appreciated.

[@stoegerstewie8351]

Love my BB6, wanted the TS9 to get here since I got that BB6. Will get a OD green TS9 soon.

[@funkla65]

The safety delete kinda reminds me of the original Steyr M9, with the non-safety version still retaining quite a bit evidence of the safety. Bubits does seem to have a thing for trigger blocking safeties.

[@GBGuns]

@funkla65 and he worked on the M9 too!

[@whatsup24_7]

That's a really nice looking pistol. That aggressive grip texture Taurus has is awesome. I'm a little irritated that they gave you one that is scratched. That shouldn't have cleared quality control. And you should've received 3 mags

[@GBGuns]

When I bought it I don't think they knew it'd end up on the channel, but I like it that way: no cherry-picked false impressions.

[@DavidMoser-tr7vy]

The hole in the slide plate is where the pin is accessed to remove the slide plate. That pin has the striker spring riding on it! Push in the pin and remove the plate. Caution that pin is under pressure! Also according to Taurus the trigger safety has been made in operable in USA. Probably because someone would do something stupid and get hurt and want to sue!

[@Juno_Beach]

Gotta love that BB6

[@robertcampbell1911]

My manual safety doesn't work either but I believe it's intentional. I think they wanted the pistol too be as glock like as possible and simply deactivated instead of removing it which would probably involve making a new mold - always a big expense.

[@heavycreamjl565]

I have the ts9...the non safety versions have the plastic plug in that spot that looks just like the safety. It's not supposed to move. Though it looks like it should.

Hello, I enjoyed this review! I have one of these pistols and was curious to know how and where you found the manual online? I have looked all over on the web. The manual Taurus has for download on their website is for the PT92 not the TS9. Thanks for any info you can share. BTW, the box mine came in says "No Manual Safety" on the lable. So basically the flipper in the trigger guard on my pistol won't move either. Thanks Again!

It was a pdf file I found be searching for "Taurus TS9 manual"

Own two of them, one I needed to send back. One of them had the wrong color frame and wrong color on the label?1? One was suppose to have a grey frame but all black and what I ordered on line.

Now they need to send a green one which I didn't want, pay a transfer fee and do the paper work all over again!

[@hopewilliams6705]

@@rbm6184 That is what I meant... Did they base the TX22 on this style pistol cause they are a lot of similarities

[@funkla65]

Another advantage of the side ejection port: would help keep crud off an optic, and virtually guarantee brass wouldn't impact the front lense, too. Speaking of which, if they see fit to offer a TORO version of this, I may get more interested in it.

[@JD-tn5lz]

I have one firearm with a side ejection port. It is NOT a benefit. It is ever so slightly (maybe one in a thousand) more prone to stovepipe than any of my other firearms and because it does that to the side, it doesn't immediately block the front sight post...so it's just that extra half moment to see and clear. No, small ejection port and side ejection is a bad bad bad idea.

[@avatargunner6776]

did you call to make sure they didn't goof up and left out one of your magazines you were supposed to get?

[@farklestaxbaum4945]

Are the manuals really such a big cost that they cant include a paper one? My APX didnt come with one, it said "request a paper manual at such and such site" which I did and they never sent. Point being that gun is actually quite hard to disassemble and it comes with no manual

[@swamphawg1]

Great informative review . YT has a problem with pushing a pin out on camera ? That is shameful.

[@GBGuns]

Yes, their policies are poorly written by folks who don't understand firearms and then enforced by people who understand neither the policy nor firearms.

[@scotteger6271]

It seems like the right side slide lock was sticking way up during most of the review. I saw that inserting the mag made even the left side slide lock lift a little but it was still pretty much in line with the slide stop cutout, but the right side looked like it was lifted. The takedown is weird…seems like you need an extra hand. It’s different and good to see Taurus bring new (kind of) guns to market…but the QC doesn’t seem as good as the US made Taurus stuff, maybe? Guess it’s a sample size of 1.

@@GBGuns it's too small, if something goes wrong while feeding it's too hard to insert a finger there. In my first session with a TS9, january 2021, I had two feeding problems. With my G2C I also had two failures to feed but was much easier to solve them due to the large port. I have a problem with reliability, maybe that's why I have a five shot 38 as my primary gun (jacketed bullets only, since lead between barrel and cylinder can jam the gun - I have a second 38 revolver with misalignment problems and that gun jams with soft lead bullets, I will fix this 34 yrars old problem as soon as possible). I read somewhere that one of the firrst modifications on the 1911 prototype was a port enlargement to improve ejection. I don't have reasons to doubt. I have a PT92 and that gun has no port. Taurus advertised the small port as an advantage to prevent lint and sand from entering. Since they make the 92... wich one is the crappy one? Large or small? As a brazilian, I don't trust anything from taurus.

[@GBGuns]

You can be reassured that this gun was not designed by Taurus, it's one of Bubits' designs and he's a well-established and accomplished engineer having designed for Walther, Caracal, Steyr, Glock, and others. This is also a completely different action type than a 1911 or a Beretta 92 so the energy required to operate efficiently is different.

@@GBGuns I know, when TS9s became popular in Brazil many shooters posted links to BB Tech reviews. Wilhelm Bubits designed a pistol with a tiny ejection port... ok, but I don't want one.

Good video but an easy NO on this one. Seems that Taurus stepped back into their old habit of slopping a pistol together. That's too bad because it seemed like they had turned a corner. Plus it's a 9mm, so it's only a plinking round as far as I'm concerned. Other thing, and call me a pedant. It's a big issue for me. Not that it happens often, but I shoot alot and I shoot in adverse conditions in rural Alaska. The one other firearm that I own that has an abbreviated side ejection port has a serious issue with unreliable ejection, like, maybe one out of a thousand. Not only does it seem to occur more frequently because of the small port, the fact that the brass isn't right there blocking my view of the front sight slows down the clearance. Again, if one out of a thousand (or maybe less) is okay with a shooter, then GTG for him or her. Just that it's ever so slightly slower to clear is significant to me. Good video, thanks for dealing with that pistole. Hopefully the workmanship on this one is a one-off and Taurus isn't backsliding.
