I recently picked up a Tx22 based largely on your review. This gun is great. Thanks for all your honest reviews. #1 gun reviewer by far!

Who’d have thought Taurus would make a better gun than Glock.

I was looking for a .22 and was getting ready to buy the Sig P322. Stumbled across this video last week and went out and bought the Taurus. Absolutely a fun gun to shoot. When I get the itch to buy a gun, I check the Honest Outlaw's videos to see what Chris thinks. He is by far the best reviewer mainly because he does not waste time and speaks quickly.

He said he would appreciate it if they "came out with a model with the safety removed." Just want everyone to know that they do, I own one. Got about 1,000 rds through it, only issue I have is, if I use the loading tabs on the mags, I get nothing but feeding issues. If I load it like a regular 9mm mag, it runs flawlessly.

Based off this review, bought one at my LGS and 8 mags in March. Four months later and roughly 4k rounds through it (several brands and grain sizes). I have had 5 total failures [2 ftf, 3 fte] and all occurred during a range period when I didnt clean the gun after a 650 round range session [2 boxes of Federal Lead bulk 36 grain]. The gun is legit the best .22 handgun and I'll wager a solid edc item if rimfire is a consideration for you. Only real complaint is the finish on the slide is cheap but the internal shows little wear. 10/10 gun, thank you sir for the recommendation!

Taurus has been knocking the s*** out of the park, lately.

Your first impressions video convinced me to buy one about 3 months ago. It is the best 22 pistol I have ever owned! I've always historically stayed away from Taurus, but this thing is incredible. Highly recommend.

Taurus has done a real 180 with the TX22, G2C and G3. Excellent handguns that run better, with better triggers and better quality than some guns three times the price of the Taurus.

So far, this is the third pistol I’ve purchased based on your recommendations. I have yet to be disappointed. A great video. Very informative. Thanks.

Bought a tx22 about 6 months ago, comes to every range trip. Fun little gun, excellent training pistol. Taught all five of my kids with this pistol.

I've had my Taurus PT940 since 2008 as my carry, love it. Good to see them still doing their thing.

I just bought the Taurus 22 day before yesterday and went to the range today. Wow, what a great, fun little gun to shoot. A terrific plinker. I was just using bulk ammo of different types that was thrown into a bucket all mixed together. I didn't have a single failure of any kind. Amazing. Taurus finally got something right! Will be a good gun to practice sight acquisition and trigger control without breaking the bank on ammo.

I had my choices for a .22 semi auto narrowed down to the M&P or the Walther .22. After reading and watching a lot of reviews about the ammo pickiness of the Walther specifically, I kept searching. I bought the TX22 for $250 and am glad I did. The capacity is great and you can also get a +3 extension. It also reliably shoots every brand of ammo I've put through it with only a couple of failures.

I agree. I’d love for them to make this in 9mm. The Taurus TX-9

In the last 5 years Taurus has really upped their game and I couldn't be happier, I have 7 and planning on buying more

Hadn't thought about access to the chamber being a bit limited. And THIS is why i subscribed to this channel. To learn! Thanks, man!

Excellent review as usual. Taurus has really come a long way. Watch out Sig, Glock, Smith and Wesson, and Springfield. You now have a real competitor in Taurus - and for less money. That is impressive.

3 malfunctions in 1000 rounds. Outstanding performance. Thanks for the content. Great video

Just had mine to the range this week, flawless and very accurate. Shot around 300 rounds in no time, not one jam. I have a Mcfadden lightning loader with the TX adaptor on it. Load a mag in less than 10 seconds. These loaders are great and I have an adaptor for my Walther PPQ.

We bought this gun and love it, both my sons operate it without issue with over a thousand rounds of bulk ammo with minimal failures (10 and 13 yrs of age) Good review btw

Taurus hitting them all out the park TX22 and G3.

Got this exact pistol & color. Absolutely love it.!.! Perfect 22lr trainer and plinker with awesome features and price point.

Saw this review when you first posted it, and I've wanted to buy the gun ever since. Just went to my LGS earlier today and they had a pristine condition used one with 5 mags and original box and docs included for just $299. Couldn't pass it up and now I can't wait to get it to the range!

I'm convinced. I've been agonizing over a .22 handgun for some time. I want to have one in my collection for new shooters for training purposes. This vid has helped me make that decision for the Taurus. Thanks again mate!

Have one just like yours. No malfunctions. Bought about January $178.00 out the door from Davidson’s through local dealer. Amazing pistol. Haven’t seen any available for months but Glock 44 available.

We got ours for $180 during the $50 TX22 rebate they did last year. Favorite gun in our collection by far.

I bought one of these after watching a BUNCH of .22LR pistol reviews and comparisons. I LOVE it. I was just out shooting this past weekend and we were shooting at 140yd with rifles and i decided to try my luck with the TX and after figuring out where to line up the sights i was actually hitting about 40% of my shots on a torso plate. Great gun for the cost.

Great review. 1000 rounds is quite the real world review. I bought this gun about 2 years ago. I've really enjoyed this gun my son has a number of different caliber guns, but he tells me this gun is his favorite. Lol, but it's mine. I happened to run across your review. Someone with as much experience as yourself, you gave it quite the positive review.

Picked one of these up last year while they were offering the $50 rebate and the price couldn’t be beat! It’s been one of my favorites at the range and doesn’t break the bank to shoot. Forged tec holsters makes good kydex holsters and mag carriers for it and Tandemkross makes a great fiberoptic front sight, extractor and magazine loading tool.

I just bought this same color pistol on gunbroker for $279. After taxes and shipping + ffl fees I'll be into it for about $345. I hope it's as good as all the reviews. Just bought a rossi rs22 black Friday and this gun should pair great with it.

I just took my tx22 to the range today, and put 200+ rounds through it. 4 different brands of ammo i didn't have one failure. However i polished the feed ramp and chamber beforehand. I absolutely love it

Thanks brother. I bought this gun off of your review and I couldn't be more pleased. Excellent weapon.

And it has a threaded barrel and shoots very well suppressed. Great video!

My favorite pistol and I own many pistols from all different manufacturers. This one hits the mark for me especially when it comes to range time.

I saw one of these at my local shop, and it might be my first non 9mm handgun. I love the ergonomics, love the look, and I love the price. Thanks for the review.

My wife has one and we had a few problems with the mags at first but with 700 rounds thru it now we are pleased

Its my favorite 22LR. Awesome gun. It fires all ammo. Almost cant miss target. Great trigger!

Very glad you did this review. I love my TX22! I’m surprised you forgot to mention it comes with a threaded barrel adapter to run suppressed. And it runs suppressed very well at least in my experience.

I bought the TX22 based on your review. Thank you so much for the review.

I love your reviews! I want to hear the good and bad! And in a clear concise way! Good work and thank you!

Glad to see others are enjoying this pistol. I really enjoyed my TX22. A friend who is an FFL let me borrow one of the first in the shop to test it out. Put almost 1k down it. Only issues I ever had were related to the mags and how I loaded them. If I ignored the couple that dipped down or up thinking they would straighten out, then they would usually not feed. But if I made sure they loaded fine and didn’t go wonky on me then it ran great. I went ahead and bought it because I enjoyed it so much. Put a light and was my truck 22 for a good while. Got plenty of skunks, raccoons, and snakes with it. Only got rid of it cause a coworker just had to have it and offered a little more than I paid. Upgraded to the beretta 92-FS in 22lr. Great as well

This is my next 22 hand gun, love taurus guns.

Excellent video. I’m buying the TX22 tomorrow. I’m also buying the Taurus G3B full size 9mm. I almost bought the Glock 44, but too many malfunctions. So happy I found your video on the TX22.

I own 9 Taurus pistols older models and new models , never had any problems. Love Taurus 👍👍

I feel like it's a new review every day!!! I love it!

I was just considering this for my wife's first training pistol. So glad to see a new video on it.

Turris closed in the ejection port for shooting suppressed, and suppressed is where this gun shines the most. Great review, keep up the good work. 👍👍

I have this same gun and I have had zero problems with it. Even mounted a RMR on it and it still runs flawless. Best money I've spent on a gun besides my 1911's.

I bought a new TX22 recently. It is very accurate. It’s soft recoiling. It weighs nothing. I was going thru ammo so quickly that I bought some more mags.

Just bought one this morning after watching this. 👍🏻 best .22 ever

I own 3 Taurus pistols,the big judge,G2 and G3.no problems with any of them,no jamming at all,great great guns for the price, but price has a consideration,but I love the g2and G3 ,I love the safety system. I pocket carry the g2and love the safety on it.I consider a gun a tool like a hammer or tape measure. I don’t need a $500 gun when I can reliability out a $280 gun that doesn’t jam, my wife has 2 s&w m&p east side , both have jammed .thank you, love your channel

Just bought one yesterday for $299 at bassproshop in illinois and will pick up after 72 hour wait period. Got it because of this review.

They do have a non-safety model available. I purchased one through Big Daddy a few months ago. I have north of 2000 rounds through mine without the first malfunction! I had two failure to fires but it was Winchester Wildcat and both were struck very well, not a gun issue.

I'd give the Taurus a try. I have a G2C 9mm and I love it.

Just purchased a SW M&P 40 after watching your video for conceal purpose. Definitely like this .22. Might be my next one.

Absolutely love the TX22. So much so that I bought 2 more to share the fun with the family. I have a dozen or so 22LR pistols and this is definitely the most fun. Maybe Buckmark for accuracy

Im at 4000 rounds in mine so far with 5 malfunctions all while using remington golden bullet, any other ammo ive ran in it has ran flawless, ive got 4 22lr pistols and the TX is hands down my favorite but also me and my brother both said Taurus needs to hurry up with a 9mm built exactly like the TX22 and call the the TX9 il buy 2 of them too just like i bought 2 tx22s lol

Aside from having to check my barrel after every magazine to make sure there aren't chunks of lead stuck in the defective rifling, the TX22 is the best .22lr pistol I've ever shot. I Love how they did the threaded barrel. Mine can technically fit in a glock 19 kydex holster in a pinch, but not very securely. Good enough to train with though. There are not many (1 or 2 at most) aftermarket sight options available as of last month when I last checked. I bought mine December 2019 and it was one that had the defective barrel. There are chatter marks down the entire barrel which can (and has) shred off chunks of lead that'll get stuck inside the barrel, leading to serious catastrophic damage if you don't check on it often. There was also uneven rifling and some keyhole issues. There still might be some defective barrels out there. DO NOT BUY ONE unless the gun store employee lets you inspect the rifling with a flashlight. I probably have another 4-6 weeks minimum to wait on them to send me out a new barrel. After a notably bad customer service experience involving at least 90 minutes of total wait time on the phone, and being made to jump through a bunch of hoops to even get them to agree to send me out a new barrel, I requested someone who handles complaints to call me at a later time so I could express just how crappy my customer service experience was. To their credit, they offered me a 15 round extended magazine for my G2C to help smooth things over. That definitely made the apology feel real, and I still cautiously recommend them as a company because of that. I'm not going to say, 'don't buy their guns', but I do highly recommend that you do more research than you normally would and inspect the shit out of the gun before you buy it. At Taurus, they like to include the customer in their quality control process, so make sure you do your due diligence while saving money on relatively cheap guns.

I bought a ruger 22 because i could put a brace on, my 2nd choice is/was the Taurus. This gun is well reviewed. Nice job by HO.

Just got one today thanks to your reviews its going to be a good addition to my walther p22 and gsg firefly keep up the great work

Just make sure you check your barrel for chatter before you purchase. The older run of guns had that issues and it's a pita to get in touch with customer service atm from what folks are saying online. With that said, the only issue with Taurus is the haters/trolls. That's it. The tx22 is absolutely amazing.

Everything about the tx22 is great. It’s a fast shooter too. More aftermarket pieces would be nice though

Thanks for the review! It was very helpful in making the decision which .22 pistol to buy. These are sold out almost everywhere, but I was able to snag one locally tonight.

I have the same model/color as you do. I absolutely LOVE mine. No problems whatsoever!

I totally agree with everything you said and you’re the only other person I’ve heard say that I wish they would make a 9 mm version of this gun I would buy it in a heartbeat.

I don't like striker fired handguns but this one has a couple of mitigating factors. 1. It's cheap. 2. it has a manual safety. Worth considering. my only concern was the trouble you had clearing malfunctions.

I picked up one of these back in September, and have put a little over 1000 rounds, mostly Federal, through it with zero malfunctions. This gun has been nothing short of surprising considering the past record from Taurus.

I've been looking at this for an affordable plinker. This video has sold me on it.

Yes Taurus needs to bring this exact setup out in 9mm! I agree.

SHOT was cancelled this year but I guarantee after the popularity of this model, Taurus was planning to unveil the 9mm model. And I'm in line for it.

Just bought one today looking forward to shooting it! Thanks for the great review as always

You obvious got really lucky in getting that gun. No malfunctions from gunnitself in 1000 rounds. I've seen Taurus Tx22's fail in the first mag, but that was an issue with the gun itself. I have a Ruger sr22 and 6 10 round mage showing up in the next couple to 3 days and CAN'T wait to get it out to the range. I currently around 17000 rounds a various brands that I have had anykind of failures through my Ruger sr 22 rifle. LET THE PLONKING BEGIN!!!!!👹☠💣🛶🔫🔫.

I absolutely love my TX 22 and everyone who shoots it loves it. It definitely has some break in issues till about the 200 round mark but after that it’s ran flawless. With over 2200 rounds and about 1600 suppressed this thing RUUUUUUNS

Been using mine to get used to shooting at 25 yards it's a lot of fun.

Nice, thanks I’ve been waiting for you to do this one!

Ah, I was waiting for the full review! I bought one a few month months back, and it has performed similarly -- a couple failures early on and no problems since. Just a fantastic gun at a very good price, and so much fun to shoot. I put on a green fiber optic front sight -- a very useful and inexpensive upgrade. Great review, thanks.

Oh pistol is awesome runs everything trigger good accuracy is great when clean . Love it 😍

I absolutely love mine! Have over 1,300 and any failures I had were all due to ammo.

Wow a 10 that's Awesome I am a big Taurus fan I have a couple and never had any issues I need one of these 22s.

Thanks! Love my Stars and Stripes version PSA and added extended mag base pads, also Taurus sent another better quality barrel for backup!!

Sad that this gun is over 3 years old now and it costs more than when it launched...

So far this year I've purchased two 2011 Staccatos (C2 & XL), two Sigs (365 & 365XL), a Canik TP9SFX Blackout, two 1911s (S&W SW1911 & Dan Wesson Vigil), two Glock MOS Gen 5s (17 & 34), and this Taurus TX22 based on watching your reviews. I obviously value your opinion and your judgement. That said, please stop reviewing guns before I run out of room in my house!

Excellent review, a LOT of information in there. Keep up the great work.

I love this review, and have been looking at one of these for my wife but here in Kentucky they are bringing around $350 bucks.

Love this pistol - actually had 2. My sister liked the first one so much, I gave it to her and got myself the non safety version as replacement. Both have been utterly reliable except with some old moldy ammo and some 30 year old steel cased greasy Russian ammo. They occasionally fail to fire but I put that on the ammo.

Thanks a lot.. now I've got a TX22 on the way lol

There is a non external safety model available, I have one and I love it. I also have the +3 mag extension from Galoway Precision which makes it a 19+1 pistol with is really nice. I have 4 mags and it really saves on the reloading time.

Thanks for the thorough review, as always. I’ll have to pick one of these up.

100% agree got one from my dad for Xmas or b-day when ever they came out, love it! I have 12+ mags and plan to buy more (only 16-20 bucks) most reliable 22 pistol 🔫 I’ve ever shot! Plus love love love the 16 round mags, it’s what the Glock 44 should have been.

I have the burnt bronze one Sportsman's outdoor superstore (black w/ bronze slide) and it runs great.

Just purchased a TX-22 Today in Black though I wanted a TDE but I took what I could get.Looking forward to getting out to shoot it.It goes well with my G2C,G3C,& my wife’s 856.

I bought mine a year ago. I have about 2000 rounds through it. The first 300-400 rounds I had a numbers of failures to feed and quite a few stove-pipes. After that I cannot remember a single issue. I don’t attribute all of the initial issues to pulling the tabs down too far when loading, but some may have been. I think some of it was just break in because I can be pretty careless about loading now and the thing just runs. My advise: if you have trouble try loading it with the autoloader but most importantly wait 500-600 rounds before making a judgement.

Just bought a safetyless version 2 days ago.

You didn’t mention that the TX22 comes with a threaded barrel so it can run suppressors that’s also a plus for the price point I love my TX22 With a silencer co-sparrow

Great Video @Honest Outlaw - one thing I noticed in this particular video (you may have figured this out already), when you're cutting your VO in, you should turn the VO track to mono to avoid what happened in this video (heavy left bias). Always enjoy your reviews, be well!

Just picked up a TX22 and I gotta say it runs like a sewing machine! Sights were off but they are windage and elevation adjustable. Quick sight adjustment and it was ringing steel at a blistering pace! Great trigger also. I ran about 500 rounds thru it right out of the box. Field stripped it, cleaned and back together. No wear issues noticed. Great deal at $259!!

It looks like a CZ P10C. Would love to try it out and see how the trigger is.

this looks like a perfect gun to train new shooter's kid's or women without intimidating them....great review!

Love the review, been sitting here all night trying to figure out which 22 auto to buy in my budget.. gonna pick one of these up right now. With ammo prices these days this things gonna get a ton of use. I'm also one of those people who agonizes over a gun purchasewhen its for a purpose.. so I have high hopes! But I love my taurus revolver and I'm rarely disappointed.

Looks like a fun little .22 pistol. Thanks for the review.
