The Most Under Rated Firearms in America: The Taurus PT92

[@gymshoe8862]

I bought a used pt92 for 200 bucks because the wood grips were skinned up and the finish had worn badly from rough treatment--it looked bad. One of my "friends" called it a junker (he owned a Beretta) I am a woodworker hobbyist, I sanded the grips and rough spots on the frame and slide til they were smooth as a mirror and touched up the finish with cold blue and "aluminum black'. I polished all internal metal to metal parts, added moly lube and it had a smooth greasy feel it didn't have before. It was shooting perfectly. When compared to the friend's Beretta it was easy to see the junker was the better gun. It only took a little sweetening up from me.

[@yrsued]

You did a great buy, for the money, you made out!! You know Hogue makes superb G10 Grips for it, you should replace the Grip Bushings when you put them in, I did a Video on it!! For $200, you made out!!

[@tonydiego5827]

My first gun out of the military was a used Taurus PT92. I traded it many many years later for my first Colt AR-15. They gave me $50 more than I paid for it......but I regretted getting rid of it almost immediately. 3 years ago I bought myself another PT92 for my birthday. I love having it in my collection.

[@yrsued]

I sold mine in 93, Now I got this one, I missed not having the pistol, very happy to get it back!!

[@SoloFan87]

I just recently Purchased a Brand New Taurus PT92, I must say I do not regret it at all. I'm a first time gun owner and Always had my father and uncle train me with a Beretta 92fs. However a Beretta is just not an option for my budget and I will be honest Girsan Regard was a nice gun but the Taurus PT92 just was my prefrence when shooting it and handling it. The Frame Mounted saftey was another winner for myself as well along with the Decocker. Glad to be apart of the Taurus PT92 Club :)

[@yrsued]

You made a superb choice!! Too bad it doesn't get the credit it deserves.

[@dagees1793]

[@INDOMINION]

This pistol is stupid accurate and dependable as a light switch. Can't go wrong with this classic.

[@yrsued]

I'm glad you're enjoying yours as much I did mine!! I have only two more changes I would like to make, above the Front Sight and the Safety Lock... I wish the Mag Catch was more like Beretta's and maybe, a Beretta Style Rear Sight Notch...

[@yrsued]

@BILLY THE KID IMHO, the best dang pistol for the price!!

[@scottrackley4457]

Agreed. While not a target type, it's very solid. Shoots like a sewing machine. I have an H&K .40, and it is better, just not triple the price better.

[@vincedee6607]

I have a PT 99 Af, had it for more than 30 years, maybe 40. Great gun ,smooth shooting and accurate. Been carrying it lately, comfortable with a leather IWB. I broke the ejector recently, sent it back to Taurus in GA , they fixed it, put 20 rds through it, oiled it and I had it back in 4 weeks. All no charge. Lifetime warranty!!

[@yrsued]

YUP, you can't beat their warranty and service!!

[@caribbeanaviator1964]

I've owned a Taurus PT99 for over 30 years now, I have owned many guns over the years but this one I have kept and it is currently my EDC. It is big and heavy but with my Alien Gear IWB and a good belt I carry for hours on end without discomfort. The only problem I had with this pistol was related to the original magazines so I recommend higher quality aftermarket ones. Thousands of rounds over the years and no problems, just change the springs every decade or so and keep it clean and very light motor oil here and there and that's it, this thing will cycle pretty much every ammo, every time!

[@yrsued]

The new Mags from Taurus are actually very good, They are MecGar, so they are good!! I do agree, some older mags were bad, but the new MecGar are great!! You can also buy several models of MecGar Mags directly from them. I miss my 1992 PT92!!

Thanks for your review. In 1990 I purchased a used Taurus PT99, same as the PT92 but without adjustable sights. I have since purchased a PT92 made in the mid-1990s. Neither pistol has the locking mechanism. Over the years I have purchased most of the Taurus handguns and have had no failures. It is a fantastic value! I'm pleased to say I've owned Taurus pistols for more than 30 years.

[@yrsued]

I wish I still had my 1992 PT92, that was such a good pistol, I sold it back to the dealer I got it from and got a Beretta 92FS, that was such a waste of money.

I have this one and a Taurus .357, not a thing wrong with either of them. My PT is nearly 30 and shoots like a sewing machine still. I think it's jammed twice on me, both due to shitty ammo I bought. Looking at you Federal.

[@shannon6815]

I got my pt92 about 8 years ago and i love it. It is alittle too big for my small ass to carry but its an awesome home defense gun as it holds alot of rounds and the weight alows it to have almost no recoil so easy to get multiple shots on target.

[@yrsued]

That is why I think is so under rated, this is a GREAT pistol that never gets the recognition it deserves!!

[@rbm6184]

After my Thompson Auto Ordnance 1911A1 the Taurus PT92 was the first wonder nine I owned back in the 80s but did not have the decocker or rail back then. Fantastic trigger. Better than a Beretta trigger. I liked the frame manual safety way better than the slide manual safety on the Beretta. Mine was more accurate and out shot Beretta 92s. I miss that pistol.

Got my very first gun yesterday and it was a PT92. My dream gun(and had to be my first gun) was a M9 Beretta. Got to the gun store and saw they had a brand new one. Picked it up and saw it said Taurus on it and I was very confused ? Learned the history behind it(it's basically the same gun with a different name) and I bought it !! One of the best decisions I've made. And I'm so incredibly happy I was able to get it as my first gun.

[@yrsued]

And Taurus's Warranty is SO MUCH better!! If you ever have an issue, which I have never had one, Taurus will take care of it, no questions asked!!

[@pHixiq]

@@yrsued that's super good to hear ! I got some crap from some elitist on why I got the pt92 over the M9. Turned out Half of them didn't know anything about the history and the other half couldn't get past the Taurus name. From all the stuff I've seen and watched these past few hours, not a single thing could be found on this gun being horrible. What you told me about the warranty just solidified my feelings with the gun ! Especially as a First time owner !

I have a very early model Taurus PT92 that has no rail and no decocker. I love it. The wear it shows is from being in a holster in a dry box I took hunting all the time. It's been loaded in the gun safe for a long time and will empty the magazine every time. It stove piped once. Surprised me but I found i had let it get very dry and had not cleaned it in a while. I cleaned it and oiled it and no more problems.

[@donaldslayton2769]

thanks for the mention bro! yep, the PT92 is a great handgun, no arguments here on that

[@felipe-nt-d]

Here in Brazil Taurus used to sell their 92/100 pistols to law enforcement agencies and the military, but the company never bothered to make those pistols easy to upgrade by making it possible to users to replace the sights and so forth because it would make the weapon more expensive to the buyers. Taurus should pay more attention to the 92 market, specially when there are excellent companies that customize the Beretta 92 in the USA. I'd really like to see night sights and a centurion sized or carry sized PT92, just like the Berettas customized by Wilson Combat. Maybe Taurus could offer options on their PT917 model as well!

[@yrsued]

I know how you feel, at lest we have Hogue Grips, Grip Bushings and Grip Screws here!! But I know how you feel about the Rear Sights, I would love to see a Novak Low Mount Rear Sight for it, with no Dots!!! I blacked out the white Dots on this one and works for me. I would also like a Dovetail Front Sight, like in the newer Berettas!!

[@johnroberts6695]

The Taurus PT-92 AR is great, especially the stainless steel models. When the military began having problems with cracking slides (only the military models), Taurus advertised that its PT-92s had superior metallurgy than the Berettas. No Taurus 92 ever had slide-cracking issues, but at the time the Taurus, while it was as reliable, it simply didn't have the accuracy of the Beretta, so I didn't keep them. In the early 2000s I bought a stainless Taurus and, to my delight, it was as accurate as my Beretta, and I have it still. And it's frankly a better gun than my Beretta. The cock and lock safety alone is worth buying it. The S&W 659 is another underrated gun in my view. People love the 5906, but you almost never hear anything at all about the 659. I have two of them and a 5906, and the 659 is my favorite.

Good test I really like shooting with that pistol I bought mine here in Brazil I do not wait for the time that it arrives for me. Here in Brazil, despite having a large factory of pistols and tactical weapons, we have great difficulty and bureaucracy to have weapons.

[@yrsued]

But I heard that your new president was about to change that for you?

[@viniciusmartin]

@@yrsued Hello Friend. In short, until 2003 it was possible to buy weapons in Brazil as in the USA, with documents and money. In 2003, the disarmament statute was implemented and shortly thereafter, I think that in 2005 there was a referendum on the topic, and even with the citizen's vote in favor of weapons, the president at the time did not release it released (Luiz inácio Lula da Silva) In 2018 Bolsonaro was elected and one of his promises was to revoke the disarmament statute. He really has been working hard on this, but ... the left parties and even the Supreme Court itself have been working hard to hinder the changes that Bolsonaro has been trying to implement. So, whenever they can legalize all the changes proposed by the current president. Regarding the acquisition of weapons, we have two paths in Brazil. 1 - Through the Army (we have had many improvements) 2 - Through the Federal Police (has not evolved much) In either case it is necessary. 1 - The realization of a basic course of shots and weapons 2 - Written test 3 - Practical test 4 - Psychological test But it's one thing to get possession (authorization to have a gun at home) Another thing is to get the Porte (authorization to move with a gun) this is practically impossible.

I bought a PT 92C in the early 90's it doesn't have an internal lock thank God! I still have this stainless steel with wood grip panels with a gold Taurus emblem seated in the handle plate. It's a real looker. I love the gun so much I just bought a brand new PT 92AF it has the rail system same as the one shown in this video and I'm still impressed with Taurus hand guns, love both.

[@yrsued]

I had one in late 1992, I miss it, I wish I'd kept it!!

[@stevekafka]

Bought my first one for 464.00 at a gun shop , now own five, I didn’t know that Taurus did away with their lifetime warranty , I recently sold a blued one to a friend for 400.00 with pachmeyres , and he was happy to get it. The story that I heard is that several soldiers had the slide break free while shooting their beretta 92 and were killed by the slide going through their eye sockets, one of the reasons that they were dropped. This has never happened with the Taurus clone to the best of my knowledge. I’ve never experienced anything wrong with any of the five that I owned, also from Phx Az.

[@yrsued]

LOL, That broken slide issue is pretty much old wife's tales.... I've heard tons of them, I know Beretta's DID break due to use, but I doubt any service members were killed due to that!!! We need to get together one fo these days!!

Well, NOTHING is readily available now, that is a fact we all have to deal with. They are being made, they are making their way to distributors and I know the distributors don't want to hold on to them when orders are piling up from retailers. The problem is they sell as soon as they hit the shelves in the stores and more often than not, they NEVER hit the shelves, they are sold once they come off the shipping box!! IF you want a brand new one, my suggestion is to become friends with someone at a Gun Store!!

What should the barrel front play be in the slide?

[@yrsued]

This is DEFINITELY NOT a Competition Pistol, so it has a fairly loose fit. But it's accurate enough for Minute of Bad Guy accuracy at 10-15 yards, I would avoid engaging a bad guy at 15 yards, but I bet this pistol is more capable than I am.

This weapon is amazing.... i just got a 32 round pro mag and its not cycling its jamming does anyone else have those issues

You have to be lucky with Pro Mag, My P320 Mag worked fine, but I've heard others that didn't do as well, seems like you're one of them!!

[@MilfHunterActual]

hey my guy just a lil tip i learned in the past, promag is not great stuff wouldn't recommend buying it as its a gamble each time of it will work or not, sorry yours doesn't work but i would sell the promag or return it or something if u can and go and buy Mecgar mags for your pistol they are really good quality and ive heard alot of success with all types of guns so they most of the time work flawlessly, tho im not sure if they have a 32 round mag but u should be able to find some good quality flush mags that can take a couple more rounds. hope this helps

You're going to have to send it back to Taurus, they will fix it in no time, call them, they will pay for the shipping. Nobody sells Taurus Parts, that is a problem, but Wolfe Beretta Springs should work fine in your pistol if you want a lighter spring!! Get an 11-12 Lb Recoil spring!!

Is this pistol marked Bainbridge GA on the slide? I'm trying to understand now if the pistol (at least in part) is made in GA now, rather than in Brazil.

[@yrsued]

OK, this requires a long explanation, but here it goes. Taurus USA is in GA, it used to be in Miami, the older guns were marked Miami, FL, the new Guns are marked Bainbridge, GA. I don't think Taurus makes ANY guns in the USA, they import them. But, Glock for example, makes the Glock 17 in the US, frame and slides, but most small parts are still made in Austria. That happens with many companies that sell guns to the US Government, they have to make most of their guns in the US, like Beretta, SIG and Glock. back in the early 2000's, some Glock parts were imported, like slides, but the G17 Frames were made here, in GA!!! Furthermore, all imported firearms MUST have their US Import Marks on the gun somewhere, that is Federal Law, so that might be the main reason you see two different manufacturer places. Springfield Guns are either Croatian or in the case of the 1911's forged in Brazil. The 1911's have final assembly in the US, the Croatian Guns are imported complete!!, they still say Croatia and Geneseo, IL

[@ofidiotabagista5259]

@@yrsued According to an interview with Taurus CEO I watched last month they make many guns in US and they're moving towards producing even more. Gun regulation in Brazil is too strict and all new guns require years of bureaucracy and army trials to be released here(we still don't have the G2S, G3, G3C, and we never had the Curve, e.g.). They plan to produce all new guns in US and import them back to Brazil, as that'd make the bureaucracy way easier(imported guns don't have to undergo the years of trials if they're approved in their country of origin). My understanding is they only produce their old guns(Beretta clones, Revolvers, Winchester clones, etc.) in Brazil, everything else is made in US.
