| I know that tuarus has had a bad reputation in the past, but $200 for a new 9mm I just had to buy it.. I am not going to do some big review. just saying I took it out of the box, I didn't even clean it. I put 150 rounds through it and zero problems. feels really good and accurate.. I hate to say, I really like this gun.. trigger takes a few rounds to get use to , but not bad.. |

Quoted: Not a bad deal at all considering the easy lifetime warranty that Taurus provides. I just wouldn't rely on it for self defense. When was the last time you sent something to Taurus for repair? I've done it a couple of times and "easy" isn't exactly how I'd describe the process. More like "Useless" or "Tits on a hog" or maybe "Might as well sell it for 10 cents on the dollar". Of course I haven't done it in the last 7 or 8 years, these days I won't even take a Taurus product as part trade unless it's an older 92. |

Got a free shipping lable and got the gun in back in 6 days. That said, a lot of people love their Taurus guns, but Taurus is certainly a riskier investment, without a doubt. |

Well, maybe they've changed in that regard. And the good news is the only direction they could go was up. Still, no matter how good a warranty is, the last place you want to have to use it is on a self defense gun. It's the same with tools, I know guys who have $20k worth of tools in their garage, but their emergency tool kit in their 4x4 is all Harbor Freight. That's always seemed pretty damn backwards to me. I want my best tools in my emergency kit, at home I can always pop another beer, go back inside and order a new one. Not so much when I'm stuck 50 miles from civilization. But for me personally, I don't really care who buys what, it's their money. But when asked an opinion I give it, and I'm not shy about sharing my experiences. |
