I have the PT809 and love it. I have to admit though, it had to go back to the factory 3 times after I bought it so quality control is still a Taurus issue. Recoil wise it’s better than my XDM 9 but accuracy, not quite as good. Seems to be touchy on some cheap, steel ammo about igniting the primer like Herters from Cabellas. Overall, I’d give it an 8 to 8 1/2 out of 10. Only paid $329 for it shipped. That’s $200 less than I paid for the XDM 9,? great deal.
@DennyRec My Springfield XD9 has had almost 5,000 rounds put through it, and it has never had one hiccup. Not one failure to feed, not one stovepipe.? Not one.
an yes most taurus guns have a? decocker usely when u push down on ur safty swich
i have a taurus PT 24/7 G2 9mm everytime i use wincheater mine jams up? alot so i use remmington 115gr hollow points lil hard to get 147gr hollow points around here
I have to agree with you. That every semi auto gets? jammed sometime.
@SHOOTERNW you seem like a very happy person haha?
@DennyRec and hey don’t you notice thats the only problem they say about Taurus? Every gun gets a? jam eventually my friends glock even jammed thats almost un heard of
I know people give Taurus a bad name vi bought this gun and it jammed or Stovepiped take it home clean it well. Hold it tight and slowly squeeze the trigger.? You have site it in using all three the the front to target it, sure how to explain it. The Taurus an excellent family of firearms. Great review.
@tac94540 i know, i don’t get it because all sa/da hammer fired handguns have “seconds strike” lol the striker fired design as? in the 24/7/pro/oss they are unique because they are striker fired…..don’t quite get it
I had one of these and traded it off…..I? miss it a lot,Taurus really made a great gun with this one.
can you machine gun that 840 and does? it decock?
Where the Hell can I find A left hand SMALL OF BACK For my? PT840??? I been lookin everywhere !! Some told me a 24/7 will fit the 840 , but I got 3 holsters now and I ain’t buyin’ any more till i git the right ONE!@!!! PLEASE HELP!! goldinfla@yahoo.com
i like the review but why do people make such a big deal of the second strike capability? nearly every sa/da pistol produced has? the same feature, the only reason taurus ever made a splash for having the second strike, was because they introduced it in a striker fired design.
Made in Brazil, we are proud of it.?
they are banning air soft and other guns on campus because cops/college police shot and killed a student who was pointing an air soft gun at faculty, students, and then the cops they did their job and defended themselves and others and shot the student who later died!! I’m an avid gun enthusiast and completely believe in? gun rights, but you need to research the NRA more before you push for others to join, they only care about gub=n saftey and some rights but not the right to carry which is #1!!!
Great Review! Taurus? usually has a free 1 year membership to the NRA included when you buy one of their handguns. Just a little add-on for those who may not know.
Really liked this review striaght talking and helpfull i’ve being thinking of getting this firearm and i think i will now after watching this review.. And Yes sir i will be joining the NRA?
how much total? my dad carries a g21 .45 that i shot (and love) but he wants a new pistol and i showed? him this vid and he loves the gun and is pretty much tempted to buy one
@clydethekiller neither man, theyre good pistols but if ur gonna ccw go with something A LOT lighter and? smaller. if ur doing a lot of runnin and such a big blocky pistol will drive u nuts. check out a kel tec pf9 or another sub compact. the only gun that with save you is one that u actually have with you… i think u may end up leavin this guy at home IMHO
imlooking into buying this are the taurus 24/7. i skate and run alot? and this will be my ccw. please help me out wth what one to get.
