Has anyone owned a Taurus 9MM pistol?

I once owned a Taurus 40 and for the money it was a good pistol. They are big but not shit like Hi Point.

Never had one, but I've talked to near a dozen gun sales people and they all say they same. The revolvers are good (not great) everything else, NO!!! LT Brad McInnis

I have a Taurus 22 ankle backup pistol. Never had a problem in like 15 years.

Look for something else.

I had a Taurus .40-cal. years ago. It was a good gun. Never had a problem with it.

It's a decent handgun. It's no Colt or Glock but it's not a Hi Point either. At least in most of the gun shops around the house, you can get better quality for similar money.

Had 1 years ago- ok gun, worked well, was happy, till I got my Springfield Armory .45

New ones are fine. Taurus was the licensed manufacturer for Beretta in Brazil and still makes a clone of the 92/M9 that IMO corrected the shortcomings of the 92, including a frame mounted safety that works in the right direction. I have PT101 in 9MM (92 Clone with adjustable sights) and the follow on to the PT24/7, the OSS 24/7 in 45 ACP. Both are fine pistols, although the OSS requires a break in period not uncommon in modern handguns. The 101 was never ammo sensitive and after about 300 rounds, the 24/7 eats any junk I load in it. I have not got to shoot the current G3 series pistols yet.

One the revolver side, most models are S&W clones, with the exception of the tracker series. Quality isn't Smith & Wesson, but still decent. They make a number of six plus revolvers, including an interesting 38/357 that has a replacement 9mm cylinder.

Get an S&W M&P or Springfield instead. Taurus makes some decent stuff but you can get better for about the same money.
Just my 2 cents.

Not sure if this helps. I am normally a Sig Sauer guy, but I have a Taurus 1911 that has been a great gun. My Sigs can be a bit particular about the ammo they take. The Taurus gobbles up anything, steel case, aluminum or brass from any manufacturer or any reloads I have thrown at it. I have shot somewhere around three thousand rounds out of it and never had a jam or a stove pipe or failure to fire. No where near the most expense or prettiest, but if it failed tomorrow I’d buy another.
