Taurus TUC


I ordered this one just now. It's a novelty gun and won't ever be carried so it doesn't need to be "perfect". I've just always liked tip-up barreled guns and the color struck me as different. The YouTube reviews seem to indicate that they're ammo sensitive but once you find what it likes they're pretty reliable.

They don't seem to get much love here though. Who has one and what are your thoughts on it?

Not personally but my sister bought one. There was a MIM part that failed after the first couple of magazines, the safety if I remember correctly. I ordered one and installed it rather than sending it back. Might have been a fluke but it was a poorly made part as MIM goes. She bought it on her own judgement.

I like the color. With all the Beretta rebates I ordered an 80x. That Taurus has been around a long time I think but I’ve never seen one in person and never ordered one for a customer when I was selling guns.

I also ordered a Seecamp .32 and got a  beater .32 Iver Johnson revolver from a coworker today. Apparently wee little guns are a thing with me now.

Bought one last year with the purty stainless slide and blue laminate grips.  Works great with CCI SV.  Much better than a Beretta I owned many years ago.

22TUC does not have a safety.  You may be thinking of one of the earlier Taurus .22s.

I just picked it up. Hopefully I'll get it to the range soon, along with the Sig 322 I picked up.
