This Pistol Surprised me! The Taurus G3C as my new EDC!

[@zebariahgilley1998]

I just bought a Taurus g3c Toro I love it so much best carry I've ever owned and I've been thru a lot of them including sig p320. I dont understand how anyone could hate on them mine been reliable right out the box I carry federal punch ammo.

[@DEAMcN]

Same here. My wife and I both have Taurus G series pistols and I carry a G3C every day. I have a G3 also and man is it nice to shoot and super accurate too. I have nothing but good things to say about my Taurus pistols!

[@AbeDehili]

@@zebariahgilley1998 same here too. G3C is awesome. Runs all types of ammo. No issues.

[@TaurusUSA2k24]

I know for a fact the g2c and g3c and g3 and gx4 are all awesome firearms

[@AmmunitionDepotOfficial]

I need to get my hands on a Gx4 next!

[@rbm6184]

@TaurusUSA2k24 The G series G2c is where it all started replacing the Millennium series G2. Interesting that the GX4, TS9, and TX22 are not part of the G series. The G3 line has just grown by leaps and bounds. So has the GX4 and TX22. The G2c has become the Taurus benchmark pistol. Got my G2c in 2018 for right around $200 and its accurate and still flawless. I stop counting on my pistols after 600 rounds. The G2c just eats everything. Not ammo picky in the least.

[@brianshuler6951]

The Taurus prior to the G series pistols was a totally different company, different management, different facilities, different philosophies. I have owned the Millenium Pro, the G2c, and the G3c, shot thousands of rounds through them, and had no mechanical issues with any of them. For me, they are in the goldilocks catagory of size, features, and reliablity.

[@coryc42]

i absolutely agree with you they are phenomenal guns for the price.

[@seanw.p8514]

Taurus certainly got onto a better path after acquiring engineer's from SIG Sauer!

[@stevenromero5065]

⁠@@seanw.p8514yessir they gotten some m&p engineers as well reason why their quality has gone up forsures

[@AbeDehili]

Fully agree with you. My G3C is awesome.

[@KZIGGYZIG]

I've had the G3C for three years. I have never had a single problem with it in well over 1500 rounds. I travel extensively throughout Florida, Georgia and Alabama and carry it with me everywhere I go.Great little gun, great price and great reliability in an EDC.

[@superserial1]

I’ve had a OD green G3C for 3-ish years. $250 out the door. Love it. On my side as we speak with a 15 rd mag. Great compliment to my EDC lineup.

[@garryrenshaw3882]

I have the G2C, and I love it, it's my EDC.

[@PalmerNoDrama]

that's actually what I carry

[@treydaypnw]

I've shot almost 2,000 rounds through my G3C TORO, and I've had 1 failure to go back in battery. It's a good pistol.

[@Etruscan70]

G3c is my primary carry, modified ported barrel, aftermarket striker fire mechanism, aftermarket trigger , steel guide rod, and night sights. It shoots like a dream for under $500, and I really prefer it over my Glock, and my sig.

[@frost8077]

I'm in South Florida too with a G3c as my first gun. The stainless steel version isn't completely rustproof if you get body sweat on it, so be sure to wipe off sweat and apply a little oil. My G3c came really dry. I suggest getting a good amount of oil into the trigger bar and other internals, but if the trigger pull still feels too long, Hogue grips helps a lot to fill up the hand.

[@AmmunitionDepotOfficial]

I've definitely upgraded my holsters to have sweat guards living down in South Florida!

[@laughingpain3006]

Before firing it make sure to oil it up. You may also need to get the G2C barrel to properly feed JHP.

[@jotoportillo7128]

My carry is a G3C, and it's an awesome pistol....❤❤❤👍👍👍

[@jimgarvey48]

Great review- very informative - thank you.

[@totoytacticool]

If you want to minimize that grip, get the Lakeline llc flush magazine plate. I also recommend there stainless steel guide rod.

[@finaltouchautodetailingllc]

I love the tarus, it is a daily back up for my G19.

[@CoreyFPiazza]

Great pistol. Mine took a bit of some break in to perform well, but I haven't had the old issues in the past couple of range visits it attended. I'm planning on getting the TORO upgrade, but keeping the old slide for when we throw the CAA MCK on it. Great way to turn that G3C into a little PCC for better home defense capability.

[@curtisbarrow7650]

I got my G3C on Black Friday at Cabela's $199.99 price, price matched at Sportsmans Warehouse because Cabelas was out already. Same price the last two years. I find it strange some people carry a compact pistol with the extended magazine in it...mine carries with the 12 round mag, and my reload is an 18 round Mecgar SIG P226 mag with a sleeve. The Mecgar is 2/3 of the price of a Taurus 17 round mag, and made by the same people! I am putting an XSSights night sight on my G3C, so if I want to use an optic I will just have to put the slide from my G3 TORO with the green dot on it. I use Hornady Critical Defense/Duty ammo. It is not always the "best" in tests but it is always pretty near the top, and it feeds reliably even in guns that don't like hollow points, not that any of my G's have that problem. Anyway, Summer is here so it is time to shoot up all that "old" carry ammo and buy new stuff! {!-{>

[@AmmunitionDepotOfficial]

When I carry my G3C, I carry the 12-rounder and keep the 15-rounder in the pocket for the reload. Ughhh. I hate the G3C's hollow point feed finickiness. I carry Speer Gold Dot 124 gr just because I carried it as an LEO. They cycle in the gun just fine, but hand-cycling them can be an issue.

[@thetattooedguy1413]

Hey warriorland has a great holster for the G3C ( for $127 you get a mb2 light/laser and holster ) I have them for my Glocks and love them. They are on their website and Amazon

[@michaelfusco7446]

I enjoyed the review, a lot of great information not a lot of fluff and didn't drag on in too many details! I have the G3X and enjoy it, trying to improve the accuracy with it but may have been more of a cheap ammo instance. But overall I am crazy about the gun. I look forward to more videos

[@AmmunitionDepotOfficial]

Thank you!

[@guynall4025]

I own a spectrum a g2c and a g3 went out today and got the g3 c to add to my collection also have the g2s I carry the g2c and g2s as much as my sig p365 great video I did on a Glock g43 got rid of it didn’t like the feeling n the hand.will be adding the g3c to. My rotation. Great video by the way.

[@AmmunitionDepotOfficial]

Any updates on your G3C? How have you been enjoying it?

[@theoriginalOSOK]

I love my G3C. I have a JX Tactical 'Fat guy" holster for it and love that too. For a person needing/wanting a ccw on a limited budget, they can feel very well protected with this 12 round, 9mm option for under $300. I'm not going to say you are wasting your money paying more for another, 'sexier' pistol, but I will say you just don't need to to have excellent protection. Comes standard with 3 mags! Great review - thanks!

[@shortyp]

Get you an ECO leather holster. I have one for my G3C t.o.r.o slide, which was really once a G2C

[@davidwarring1572]

Lakeline ported barrel , and stainless guide rod, will make it shoot softer less muzzlae rise

[@seanw.p8514]

After upgrades to the guide rod and striker, the only downfall ive found with the g3c(g-series) is the finish on the slide

[@marksoldier4640]

im here to determine whewther an upgrade is nearby. ive used a few g2c models since 2018. the latter years of production seemed less quality. however ive heard the g3c is much better quality with much better trigger.

[@67volksrodder]

Did you replace the plastic guide rod. I did. Love the gun.

[@AmmunitionDepotOfficial]

Not yet! It's in the plans just to have one less plastic part. :D

[@MrBuckeye63]

I own a G3X … absolutely great pistol Check out the $210 TS9 Incredible pistol … parked my APX-1 in the safe

[@RheddFire]

I have the G3C and 43X MOS. I really like how the Taurus shoot, but the Glock is just lighter and slimmer

[@ronaldopedroso]

… and triple of the money.

[@captainJack1960]

its my EDC also! actually I prefer it over my sig p365 or my S&W shield plus simply because I shoot it straighter....Which I no is weird but for me it's true. thanks for the video

[@anthonypickens3236]

There is a mag that you can get from sig saur that is a 20 round that fits this gun. sig p226 fits g3c 20 rounds

[@MarvinSheats]

Great review. WOW a 10 yr. band of FB???

[@AmmunitionDepotOfficial]

Yep! They started sanctioning my personal account and gave my company a 10 yr ban! And we didn't even break the rules.

[@jamescanfield6615]

So does it jam alot cause I am looking cheap 9mm for work? I have seen issues of jaming?

[@fotz4k]

What pocket holster do you use for the 43? I love my G3C for carry

[@AmmunitionDepotOfficial]

I've been using the DeSantis Nemesis and Super Fly pocket holsters. They protect the trigger and have a slightly grippy texture outside that keeps the holster in your pocket on the draw.

[@fotz4k]

Thank you for the info much appreciate it

[@cmonnowtv910]

Also look into changing the recoil spring and a metal fire pin sleeve. Adds to reliability and a better feeling trigger

[@burttackleberry8872]

I have the same night sights you have. Does yours shoot real low with the sights?

[@Mach141]

The Taurus magazines are SIG compatible

[@leemp337]

What pocket holster is that?

[@pistolpaulie4871]

Bro it’s a great gun! You just have butter hands!!!

[@brandonhowe6387]

Only thing that freaks me out about my gc3 is owners manual suggests not to carry with round in chamber. Basically gun could go off at any moment

[@AmmunitionDepotOfficial]

I wonder how much of that is so they can cover their rears?

[@AquaLady153]

really?

[@big0bad0brad]

@@AmmunitionDepotOfficial If you're really paranoid you can get a round in the chamber without the firing spring cocked by taking the slide off and putting it back together with a round in it. The trick is when you push the barrel back into place, you have to have the rim of the cartridge slide under the tab, so you gotta get the bullet part way out of the barrel for that to fit in its spot. The first trigger pull will be full spring until it fires tho, so you won't have that wall before it goes.

[@carlosvillanueva9088]

1,300 rounds on my g3! Whatever ammo I put in It runs flawlessly.

[@jdock32778]

Of all the research, the videos, the articles and the comments, every single gun make and model has issues - all of them. It can be difficult to choose what's best. The 'G' series seems to be very reliable. Research... There are lemon guns with all the makers.

[@AmmunitionDepotOfficial]

Well said!

[@kslegnd6000]

What red dot you put on it?

[@joshuahornburg557]

This pistol has restrike and you dont have to keep racking the slide everytime you pull the trigger..

[@roderickosborne585]

My mag is hard to Load...

[@larrylinn1221]

Subscribe to Taurus and you be amazed of supplies for your pistol. In the engineering of Taurus I read that a Walther fellow is working for Taurus . I have a G3 TORO and TX22 and they have been awesome. Great Video

[@AmmunitionDepotOfficial]

Thank you!

[@elderg1510]

I’ll still never carry this weapon. Had bought one for myself and had failure to eject/failure to cycle issues. Not only that, my sights came off loose when I shot it a few times first trip to the range! Maybe I was an extreme case, but I’m a believer that a product needs to be functional and effective,if it’s marketed as such, right out of the box; and I will not be bringing my business to Taurus anytime soon.

[@jarvisrutherford289]

Algorithm defeated

[@Scooter3194]

That thing is ugly I would never put my life behind a Taurus. Get a Glock 43x with psa dagger magazine holds 15 rounds
