I "need" another full size 45, something in a polymer frame, hi cap, with a rail. I checked out several at the local fun show today. Never liked the feel of a Glock, The USP just felt wrong. I know it's nice - just not for me. Narrowed it down to the Taurus 24/7 or the Springfield XD45. I liked both equally. The Taurus is $130 cheaper, I can put the extra cash toward an M6. Need pros and cons from people who own/shoot both. Thanks |
| IMHO they are not even on the same playing field. The XD is a much better weapon. Better made, better customer service, better ergonomics, better sights, better finish, better trigger and I could go on. Forget about the Taurus and go with the SA. Wait a little longer to get the M6. |

I've owned both the XD and a 24/7 (mine was in .40 tho). Both are excellent weapons. Very similar. I also debate the idea that Taurus has a lesser CS. They have a lifetime warranty, and the company was very helpful with one small issue I had on another Taurus gun. If it came down to buying only one, all over again, I would choose the Taurus on ergonomics and feel - less recoil, more comfortable grip and I'd choose the XD on trigger and upgradability. Both are so much alike it's a tossup but I happen to shoot the 24/7 better. YMMV. |
