Nice review. I liked the points covered and the flow of the video.

Im glad you bought one or testing one. Not to often you see Guns coming out of Montenegro. They caught my curiosity cause gotta know how their aerospace engineers do. Since Montenegro is known for aerospace engineering. lol

I keep seeing these online for a good price. Glad you covered it. Another one I see often is the SAR.

I like the added metal in the frame and at first glance reminds me of a M&P.

Looking forward to the dinner test. Thanks as always.

I love the sound that Nosler match grade round made when you dropped it into the chamber! It was so addicting I replayed it a few times lol

Having a lot more rounds through mine now I have to say it is a remarkable pistol. What I noticed examining mine again today is how tight the frame/slide/barrel assembly is when locked up yet how smooth it is to cycle. Really remarkable. So I came back to this video and noted that you noticed the same thing. I don't have any other pistol that was not custom gunsmithed that is that tight yet smooth.

I don't collect guns, but I do have a Tristar T-100 with an MCarbo trigger spring. DA 10lbd SA 2.25lbs. Absolutely love it.

Thanks GB. Great job.

Great job GB👍👍👍👍👍

The way I got the mag change tool out of the grip was by placing a small optical screw driver under the lanyard rod from inside the mag compartment and prying up. It came out . The tool actually works well if you don't have your punch set to knock out the upper pin to release the grip panel. Strange, but I found you can't level the replacement panel without putting the grip tool pin punch back in first.. Follow the manual and push the pin out from left to right. Having been a arsenal officer hated resorting to prying anything out, but this method worked. Did not damage anything. Good luck it is a witch to do the first time. But the rest of the grip change is easy. Everything went back together fine. Even the pin punch tool is reasonable to pull out without being lose.

Anxious to see you shoot that. Pats and warranty should be interesting.

Noice! Been waiting on this one mate.

Yeah I also luv to buy these kinds of oddball non mainstream guns. Seen these and want to get one but haven't pulled the trigger yet. Keep up the great videos and thanks for covering guns other channels leave out.

Took my Tara to the range today for the first time and I was impressed with the performance. It did take me some time to get used to the trigger but the gun ran smooth, no issues with the ammo. I'm surprised you didn't mention how low the upper rides on this gun. Overall, a unique addition to my gun collection.

I just got mine two days ago. I can’t wait to shoot it. I had the same problem with CF but they said they were busy moving to a bigger building. Mine took a month to ship.

I own one and was pleasantly surprised !!because I’m not a Glock boy I prefer hammer to striker I love the trigger have around 500 rounds through it and it has smoothed out nicely Also order metal to polymer but I’m enjoying this a lot

I have the first gen. Some importers here in the states got them around the time Canada got theirs in. I Paid 219.00 plus shipping through a dealer on GB. I can only get mine to do that weird non reset when I trying to dry fire it multiple times. It disappears when you rack the slide in between trigger pulls. Some of the Canadian guys said the same thing. I got mine over the summer and have shot it maybe 500 times. I cast and load a powder coated Lee 125 TC bullet of a mid charge of titegroup. It runs fine and you get used to the first trigger pull. Seems to be a well made gun. Probably as good as my Caniks but with less Magazine selection. Extra factory mags are nonexistent. I ended up just going through my hoard of magazines and found the Ruger sr9 full size mags fit and function with a groove made into the front of the mag face. I show a How to on my Channel if you want to check it out. I used cheapo Promags because that is what I had . I had already ran them in my sr9 and they ran just fine.. I liked the pistol enough I took it as a trunk gun on a road trip to Florida over the fall. I used it at a range down there when the wife and kids were shopping. :)

Classic firearms takes forever.

I like the understated design. I like pistols for their own sake. I almost bought a Boberg recently just out of appreciation for the weird feed mechanism

I buy most of these off brands based on your reviews. Of the many you have reviewed in the past, my favorites are the Canik TPSFX and the Bersa TRP-9.

I really like how high of a purchase you can get on this. I believe it closely resembles the Arex Delta.

I request youtubers to do magazine release test from slide locked open. I have a gun and magazine combination where it makes a difference: magazine is ejected easily when slide is closed, but not when it's open, which is when I want to reload!

In Canada you need a gun license to own any gun. A PAL for most rifles and a R-PAL for pistols or other restricted firearms. I received my R-PAL two days after the government announced the freeze on handguns. Stores literally sold out in those two days, but I did manage to buy this TARA 9MM for $320 Canadian I could be happier. It has proven to be a good little gun for such a low cost.

I've been eyeing this gun lately and no table top review till you came with this gun. I like the trigger and very safe. Had the same problem with classic firearms . It took 3 weeks and 2 days to deliver . They just moved to a new warehouse in North Carolina and their headquarter is in Geogia. They already clean their act and will deliver in few days. Your whats for dinner test will make me decide . Yes Sir , theres a gun website that sell this gun for a hundred dollars less, on clearance.

Classic took well over a month to ship my shotgun!!!!

Me Want! I am with you about Classic Firearms. Last Summer they had a whole pallet of closeout Remington R51 lemons that they were pushing as a GREAT GUN, and at a not too small price. No word if they actually sold. I always noticed that when the younger salesman who had too much caffeine in him was shooting, you never got to see how far he was from the target? Always separate cutaway shots of him firing, and of the target impact. Uh, huh. I stopped desiring to try them for a purchase............................elsullo

Is this the lowest bore axis browning action you've seen? Looks pretty neat! I was hoping it was a archon clone by the outer looks!

Looks like a great gun

Schmeisser was going to bring a version of it to the U.S., but it never happened. It was called the SLP-9 I think. I believe it was at the 2016 or 2017 SHOT show.

Looks like many favored features from other firearms.

hey graham- to get the tool out you have to press a push down tab on the inside of the mag weld facing toward the rear grips. Took me awhile but i finally got it and man it is pretty nifty lil tool.

been looking at one of these with my taxes... glocks are over priced right now and I'm half between this and a polymer80 knockoff.... May go that route for holster and after market support

Have a Gen 1 tara for how many years now. Some glock springs work with it and have glock mariner spring cups installed. Also got a threaded barrel for a can.The trigger, oh boy you will hate the trigger but once you've gotten used to it, shooting most pistols will be a breeze. Really a good gun to master the fundamentals. Ask me if you guys have any questions with it

As to holster fit - Glock 17 and 19 (with an open bottom) holsters will work. The TM9X seems to be a third generation iteration - you can pull up vids on KZfaq going back to 2013. The main differences seem to be stylistic changes to the slide and grip. The earlier editions lacked forward slide serrations and contouring while the grips only have front and back texturing with smooth sides.

Very interesting

We've learned a bit since this video. See the article: www.gbgunsdepot.com/post/teya-s-review-of-the-tara-tm-9x

Looks like a CZ

Hi I m Adil Khan from Islamabad Pakistan, today 26th june 2022.i saw your video about Tara TM9 I purchased the gun for my self defense, do you suggest this gun to carry all the time. It's 17 shot mag capacity made in Montenegro. Plz inform me about thanks

Yeah they are cheap. bought one 3 weeks ago & went to the range had some cycling issues on the first 2 mags full. BUT after 2 boxes never had any issues. Some guns need to be broken in using different types of ammo. For some crazy reason my pistol LOVES the steel case ammo. I went last week and put 4 more boxes of steel case ammo and never had any issues. The only thing I don't like is the long trigger pull. hope this helps for you guys thinking to buy one.

I have one of these great pistol

I like the look of these. Externally they resemble a Glock with a few nicer touches. Given the unique country of origin I may pick one up as it's certainly interesting.

Still trying to find a dealer that has the Grand Power P380 or LP380 .... called Global Ordnance and they keep telling me they are getting them but haven't seen any ...

Excelente

I like it .

So the assembly tool, marked as #19in the manual, is useless?

Does the trigger feel like a Smith and Wesson M&P?

Why can't I find the safety button?

Good looking pistol. Too bad about Classic Firearms CS. They're a bit pricey about things lately.🎩☯️♠️

Hello Graham. Have you herd any news on grand power cut slides or accessorie

Just bought one today. Can't wait to shoot it

Import is banned in Pakistan guns and pistals are very expensive here so please inform me about the Tara TM9 to carry it all the time for my self defense.

I picked up a Girsan mc28 with the optic in tan. Never heard of the company. Never seen them before. Just walked into Atwood's and it caught my eye. Figured it would be a fun little shooter. If it didn't fill a void in my life then I'd pass it on to a friend for a good price. I'm excited to actually shoot the thing once this hullabaloo settles down a bit.

I love oddball purchases ...

They have a few of these at my local farm store for 399. I almost got one. I’m thinking I’ll go back tomorrow and grab one. For that price it seems good.

Nice review ! You just get mine like and subscribe! Greetings from Montenegro!😉👍💪

The real question everyone's waiting to hear the answer to is when are you going to break out your Viking ax and shield and do a review and demonstration

Classic...riding the greed train.?.you won’t see me sitting beside you.enjoy the ride!

Looks like S&W and a glock gad a baby... good looking ergonomics.

Not to ask an obvious or dumb question, but did you remove the upper pin when trying to change the backstrap?

Just ordered one for the collection. $350.

So when is the arex delta gen 2 m,x or L model gonna come through the channel??? I've had my ADG2 M model for about a good min now and it's just an obsession for me at this point now..lol Like tbh the ADG2 is by far the best pistol I've ever ownd and shot Its retired my g19 officially and I have no desire to carry my p365,my 43x with shield mags,p10c or my fn509c mrd. The DG2 totally just renewed my love for guns and shooting.. highly recommend you give it the run down..

mnp and glock 19 had a baby lol!

Classic was also moving to their new warehouse and I’m sure that caused some problems.

When is dinner scheduled

yea classic screwed me on an ammo order. shorted me by 1 box of 50rd. and no resolution to issue. I will never order from them again. I really like them but after this and a magazine order that was screwed up never again.

Great video. But just like me you couldn't get the grips off.

Never noticed your intro music has a very Megadeth feel

It's more HK (SFP-9/VP-9) than Glock. Nice touch with the backs- straps at that price. In the previous reviews I watched, the earlier gens had too much play, with the slide rattling loosely when you shook at and the trigger had way too much play, which is why even at the low price I took a pass. Until now, so I thank you for your review!

For 479.00 bucks it is everything a Glock should have evolved into. I caught the shooting impressions video and it seems as though Teya enjoyed shooting it and was rather accurate on paper in both of your hands. While you may not have popped the center in the accuracy segment on the first shot your group size says that with the right load it is a tack driver. Classic shows having 4 left in stock at the above mentioned price and to be honest it comes well packaged with 3 mags, backstraps, and carrycase so it is not a bad pricepoint. However, not being able to access the company for the spear trigger kit and other support makes me a bit leary on purchasing one. It is a very interesting piece and if the company goes into full swing and the support is there, I would definitely give it a more serious consideration for a duty purposed pistol.

Where did you find it for $100 cheaper?

I'm Hungry "What's for Dinner"?

Palmetto Had them for $399

I think Century Arms imported or imports these pistols

The way you remove the pin underneath is there is a button just inside the mag well. You need to push it and up with a screwdriver or a punch.

Great video. I keep seeing comments that their web site is down. tarapistols.com/ I have spoken to people with Tara both in Montenegro and in the US. I have both the TM-9 and TM9X. Though they look very similar, there are many differences. I have fours mags for the TM-9 and three for the TM-9x. They are not the same mags as has been erroneously said elsewhere. Almost everything on the 9x is upgraded. For me, they both function flawlessly. Both are very accurate for me. I have a couple thousand rounds through the TM-9 and only a hundred or so through the 9X. I can say for sure the 9X is extensively upgraded. Both had gritty triggers that turned very smooth with a little use. For those that cut their teeth on old DA/SA hammer fired "wonder nines" the trigger makes sense. Think S&W 659, Sig 226, Beretta 92F, etc. If the compact comes out, I am getting one. Remember, the gen 1 and 2 are different. Don't be fooled. I was dumb enough to try to interchange the slides. If you do that the slide will get stuck for a different reason depending on which way you try the swap. Frustrating, but easily dealt with if you think your way through it. The barrels are different too. Some of the parts, like recoil rod and spring are interchangeable, but the x got a stainless rod with double springs. Definitely looks and feels like an upgrade. I got the spring dimensions and rates from the manufacturer for the striker, striker recoil, and recoil rod springs in case I experience a failure. They were very nice when I asked by email for that information. In fact, I felt like they really tried hard to take care of my questions. They actually sent me part of the design specs, looks like it was copied right off the actual design documents. Parts are always a worry on such pistols. These are not my EDC, SHTF, nightstand guns, or other such thing, they are range toys. I am very happy with them. For those that need a pistol like this and it will be their go-to weapon, get a S&W, Walther, Glock, or other such mainstream reliable pistol. BUT...as it stands, with a couple thousand rounds through one, I would trust it if I needed to.

Where did you find it $100 below Classic?

Наши славянские братья собрали совсем не плохой ствол. Обзор на ура Грэм. Респект и Уважуха! Удачи Грэм

To remove the back strap look at the back wall of the magazine wall - you'll see a little square. Use a screwdriver or something to depress it and lever the disassembly tool up and out. They forgot to mention that in the manual. There's a vid on Full30 that shows it. Easy as pie once you know the trick.

Where did you get it from

Super simple and seemingly quality, but nothing I could justify buying after that trigger unless they were basically giving them away.

remove the backstrap, looks like you need to remove the little silver pin near the beavertail.

the improved design of Tara gave me an inpression that they are lost in the purpose of the gun - service or sport.

The exact same thing is happening with me and classic right now. I've been a customer in the past they've always been a bit slow but this time I contacted him a couple of days after placing the order and ask them to cancel it they said it was too late that the order was already in shipping I waited a couple more days but never received a shipping notice then I received an email saying they are weeks behind on getting product shipped out so I contacted them again and said the orders nowhere near shipping you can just go pull it off the shelf and cancel it and they said sorry we can't do that it's too far along I said well then it should be shipping any day now please give me a ship date and I never heard back from them and it's been over a week and it still has not shipped so for a company who claims to be a Christian company I think there's some very dishonest things going on and I will not buy from them again

Classic Firearms.....He's called dishonest Ben for a reason. Quit buying from them a couple years ago.

Why haven’t any guns come with changeable front and back straps?? I know the VP9 has those side panels, but the majority of the pressure you are putting on the gun while shooting (at least with your dominant hand anyway) is going to be on the front and back of the grip.. Maybe they could have one front strap for those who like finger grooves, another for those who don’t, and maybe one in between with milder finger grooves like those that are present on the VP9. I dunno... It just seems like companies might be losing out on an opportunity to innovate a little..

The trigger is very much like a Taurus G2c or g3. But of course Taurus doesn’t start double action.

I like Classic Firearms but they have the worst shipping department in the industry!

I had the original tm9 and the mags were complete garbage like complete trash they would not cycle for shit I ended up trading it in for an FNX 45 even tho I only got $80 for it 😂😂😂 but damn that was the most trash mags ever luckily I bought it on gunbroker for 245 woth FFL fees and everything so not a complete loss taken

Classic has been shady, for a bit now, IMO.

SHAME ON CLASSIC FIREARMS!

I have to ask, and it has to have been asked before: have you ever reviewed a Steyr GB? Not named for you I presume. Wow, talk about a "golden fleece" cult gun.......................elsullo

Screw Classic. They are one of the companies that import and sell so cheap they will drive local stores like mine out of business. In my area, the local FFLS are banding together and have agreed not to accept FFL transfers from these larger corperations. If you want a gun from classic, Atlantic, or Prepper Gun Shop.. your driving 35 mins.

this was truly a plesure to watch ........ please excuse my horible spelling

3:57 I'm not buying it, you can see trough LOL

Skip the manual, show the Gun already.

$470+ right now on gunbroker. No thanks. There are too many battle proven designs for that price.

Well since I live in country Tara is in, I can tell you safety record of computer is shity. Don't know about guns.

Classic is terrible.

Weird, classic firearms running a dogshit company? What a surprise.... good thing they got vids up daily tho....
