Well let me just start by apologizing for the amount of profanity that will follow………… but I cant help myself………
I have pretty much badmouthed taurus pistols for quite some time
Because of the problems I’ve personally had with them…..around 1991 I had one of their 92’s the berretta knock off….. And the locking lug ”not sure that’s the correct term” at the bottom broke off….. Locked the pistol up…..
I had owned several taurus pistols up to this point probably 15-20 different ones … just figured hey everything breaks but gradually got rid of all of them as my interests in firearms changed but owned a few more over the next few years from different deals I made….anyway around 1998-2000 not sure I bought another new one a taurus 357 ported……well it would unlock and the cylinder would partially open when I shot it ….not every time but on average at least half the time……I tried my damndest to clean it thought something was in it well never could get it to work…..
I sent both of these pistols of to taurus……… they fixed both of them….
But that broke me of the habit of buying them pretty much…..
Well last year a friend of mine bought a Raging Hornet taurus against my recommendations and guess what the screw that holds the cylinder in will losen while its firing and when you open the cylinder it will fall out if you aren't careful……I laughed my ass off cause I told him so…..
Well I’ve been wanting a S&W 317 snubby 22 for the last 8mnths or so but their 4bills dealer cost…
The taurus knock off is 245…..that’s a lot of damn 22 shells right…….
Well everyone always tells me its just bad luck you've only owned 30-40 tuarus pistols you just had bad luck or on the net they basically act like I’m a fucking liar if they don’t know me and the guys from the OK Home town forum always tell me I’ve just had bad luck……when I go to bad mouthing taurus….
So what do I do you ask well being able to forgive and forget and save a 160bucks I say what the hell givem a shot it’s just freaky coincidence…..
So I buy the Taurus for my Christmas to myself and today me and another guy that post’s in the OK HT forum go shooting….. Well I got to shoot my Christmas present right…..
It fires the first 9 no problem reload first shot I feel something hit me on the left side of my face……the 8th FTF……9th I get hit in the face
Long story short the more you shoot it the more shit slaps you in the face…. Jeff shot it and was laughing like a madman while he got hit in the face …..
The moral of the story is don’t buy a fucking taurus they are fucking junk and I don’t give a fuck what anyone says they are junk junk fucking junk……
And I’m a dumb motherfucker cause I bought this one knowing better….
I almost lost my eye with a Christmas present……..and to think people say a red ryder is dangerous they don’t have shit on a taurus….
Good news I took my franken 4 that I just built out a rra lower with a stag upper I bought from teknik and it runs like a fucking race car fast and furious……although it was hitting a foot low…who ever put fsp in screwed it all the way down…..
I put 600 rnds threw it today
Did I mention taurus sucks
And always where safety glasses .......you could loose an eye
