In 2014, Taurus Armas changed hands. The company CBC, a manufacturer of civil and military ammunition (which sells in the USA under the Magtech brand) took control of Taurus, bringing new guns, new safety standards, G3, GX4, TX 22, better finishing, etc. An example is the TH line, an improvement on the 800 line. A Brazilian gun channel (1 M subscribers) reported that the TH series, successor to the 800 line, had 21 points of improvement and design changes aimed at robustness and reliability. Thanks for the video! 👍👍

Taurus has stepped up its reliabity game over the last several years. The Taurus for me fills the role of my Casio vs Rolex argument. I need a reliable gun that I am not afraid to loose, get banged up, or stolen if left in a vehicle, yet it must go bang without issue like a Colt or Sig/Glock. They do that.😊

I have exact revolver and got it bc I'm new to the CCW life and needed something to discipline myself on carrying and needed it to go bang without technique and can say I'm glad I got it. It's light, easy to conceal, and has gone bang with all trigger pulls. It does have a kick, but the more you practice the more you'll get used to it and can targets better. Only thing is the grip. Even though it fits good into the hand the shape can be little hard on the hand. So I ordered a Hogue or Hogi soft grip model of Amazon for like $30 and switched it out very easily, now it's DOPE. I RECOMMEND this revolver to the CCW community.

When I was working retail, I sold many Taurus revolvers. The only one we ever had an issue with was a tracker in 44MAG. The crown of the muzzle wasn't completely milled out, so it was shaving lead. It was ever so slightly not completely finished. We sent it back to Davidson's and we received a new one in the mail. No issues. We did have to send a Raging Judge back, but that revolver had seen many rounds and was worn out from honest use. We sent that one directly to Taurus for warranty and we got it back after a month or so. Besides that, Taurus has been awesome from my experience. I had far more issues with S&W. There was a year and a half period were it seemed like every other S&W revolver was not up to my standards for my customers. If you spend 1,000 on a revolver; it better be in time!

I just recently purchased a new Taurus 942. Revolver in 22LR. It was defective out of the box, would not ignite any primers. Sent it back to Taurus, after waiting 3 weeks for an update they finally answered their customer service line. They said the frame was so defective they would need to destroy the firearm and issue me a new one, replacing the serial number. Wait 8 weeks for delivery and I have to do an FFL transfer AND pay for it. Just a heads up. Still waiting 6 weeks later. I also had to send the Taurus GX4 back to them TWICE for repair.

Lifetime buyer after that. I’m the kind of guy who will buy those sights because they are on sale and then buy the firearm later 😂. I have a set of grips for a gun I don’t own yet but they were sold on a limited run and I knew eventually I would own that specific firearm, so I bought the grips.

Bought an 856 Executive (3") a couple years back. It had timing and lockup issues out of the box. Taurus took it back, twice in the end. Timing was fixed. The lockup is still too-loose for a brand new gun for my liking, though I have still kept the gun. The trigger is decent, and I own several classic Smiths and Colts, and some newer Rugers, to compare it to. I would be hesitant to buy another Taurus revolver without fondling it first, though. But, on the bright side, Taurus makes warranty returns easy.

I've tried all types of ammo, 3 mags, and routine thorough cleaning... The thing just doesn't work! And from what I've read it's not a unique problem to my specific example.

I have a few Taurus firearms. Like most brands that have been around for a while they have fluctuated in quality over the years. At one point I was thinking about getting one of there .44sp revolvers and looked at a few, all of them had the barrel screwed in too far, canting the integral front sight to the point that the sights were useless. I'd recommend inspecting any firearm closely be for completing the purchase.

I’ve always had a positive opinion on Taurus, but I only owned their revolver and I was always realistic about their finish and over quality compared to Rugers And SWs. I would say their older products had a little more quality in the finish department. I had an issue with a 44 mag Tracker that I was able to send back for free and get back in a couple months and it was an easy process. Taurus is a great entry level revolver for those who are wheel gun curious, if you already own some smiths, colts, or Ruger revolvers, they are still a great by but have realistic expectations.

I've got the 605 .357 mag revolver and its...ok. its a great carry gun, I carry it in a pocket holster but the trigger is veeeeery long and heavy compared to other revolvers I've shot and mine is the old version with non removable fixed sights so I wouldnt shoot beyond 7 yards. But at the time I bought it, I was in a low paying job and it was the cheapest handgun I could get at the time that wasnt a Hi-Point. I know many talk down at Taurus and rightfully so but the gun shoots so it was good enough for me. Also its fun to go by a box of the most powerfull .357 I can get and get massive fireballs out the front of it!

Don't worry too much about your lack of accuracy. A 2" snub is one of the hardest guns to shoot well, and it sounds like you don't have much (if any) experience with them. Also, the XS Big Dot sight is designed for quick target acquisition in a self defense situation, not accuracy at the range. I have been shooting nearly 25 years and only recently would I say that I have become a good shot with my snubs. I have several Taurus handguns. I'm not a big fan of their polymer center fire autos, I have had a Taurus PT140 Millennium Pro that hasn't worked for over 10 years that I haven't sent back to Taurus because if they can't fix it they replace them with a "comparable" gun they make now and I have no interest in their autos. That isn't to say their revolvers are perfect (I've had a Taurus made Rossi that had issues, and I have a 431 with light strikes, though with a 30 year old used gun it could have easily been something the previous owner did). However, their revolvers are usually pretty good guns, if you get a bad one their warranty will take care of it, and if you don't want to rely on the warranty you can buy two Taurus revolvers and still save money over a similar S&W or Colt. That said, I do have a Tx22 that is a terrific gun, and I've heard nothing but good things about their PT92 and other older (discontinued) metal framed pistols. My old Taurus 85CH and my Taurus 856UL (I've had it for about 4 years) have been terrific guns. I may replace my 856UL with a steel version, but only because my thinner S&W 442 that it was supposed to replace pocket carries better (the thicker 856 is fine IWB, but I'd rather have a heavier steel gun for IWB). I'm strongly considering replacing my 3" new model Colt King Cobra with a 3" Taurus 856 Defender (same cylinder release and similar trigger reset as my other defensive revolvers which are all Taurus or S&W instead of the Colt's release and trigger reset which are both different), and the 905 Defender, 66, 941 in .22mag, and others also have my eye.

Taurus seems to have always been hit-or-miss with their guns. The best snubby I ever shot was an older Taurus model 85. It belonged to a friend, and I tried hard to get him to sell it to me, but it was a keeper for him. The worst auto I ever shot is a tie between the Taurus 24/7 in .45 and the original release of the Kel-Tec PMR-30 .22mag (This includes every manufacturer I have ever owned or shot)

I daily the 605 (and I’m a huge Ruger fan boy). I will say, it says “357 Magnum” on it, but you run true green hot 41,000 PSI 357 mag loads through it and it’s not pleasant for anyone. It’s really a 38 that can shoot 357. My wife’s K6s is much nicer, but it’s also heavier and 3 times the price.

I was just curious. In your previous video, you talked about feeding it a steady diet of hot rounds and seeing if it could handle it.

"Women an wheel guns". LOL. Wifey wanted a gun for carry and for her nighrpt stand. I suggested several really good semi autos. Nope, she wanted a wheel gun. She tried a dozen from S&W, Ruger, Colt, and others, 2 inches to 4 inches. She decided on Ruger GP100, 4 inch if I remember, which she cant carry, hates the grips, and can't stand how heavy it is. Tried for days to explain how it was too big for what she wanted. Now she wants a snubbie. Looks like I have another gun...just for me.

Taurus always gets a bad rap, I don't know why. my EDC is a PT101AF .40 S&W Taurus, and it is a very dependable and powerful bing pow. I love it and prefer it over my Glocks

My two cents on Taurus. My first firearm was a G3C. It definitely had a break-in period, as it barely got through a mag the first hundred rounds, had to loctite everything, because pins and screws walked out, including the front sight, but once we got past all that, shoots without issue. The Taurus TX-22 is my favorite 22, hands down. We just recently got the Executive Grade 856, and, again, screws walking out, things coming loose, cylinder fell out, so, you gotta loctite everything. It's a budget pistol that needs some break-in and a lot of loctite, so... you get what you paid for. I'm a broke Oregonian who shoots however and anyway he can, lol.

My first gun was the P40 and I hated it, jam-o-matic couldn't hit past 15yds and definitely couldn't follow up quickly. I don't know if there was anything wrong with it because in hindsight I was the point of failure 😂 The Gx series i have since tried seemed worth every penny and the wheel guns are solid.

I have 2 Taurus revolvers (669&905) both have had failures at the range that required a gunsmith and parts to repair to get them to work again, both had less than 500 rounds through them. I had to send one back to Taurus loaded because it totally locked up. Buyer beware when it comes to Taurus products, They're inexpensive for a reason. I'd never carry one let alone trust my families life to it.

Time for gun tubers to quit talking about Tarus of the past . They make great fairly priced firearms now. They are as good as anything on the market . Nuff said .
