I always liked the grip on these and they look like durable guns. Any input?

I have a bunch of Taurus guns and they all work great for me. From prior experience, you can expect to be laughed at, ridiculed, and insulted if you buy one, so make sure you have thick skin before you do.

I'm the same way, Over the years I've had 5 or 6 taurus handguns. None had any problems.

My father had what i beleive was a millenium pro?  in .40.  It had the worst trigger.  Very long pull with what felt like a mini break half way throught.  After maybe 100 rounds he promptly sold it and put the money towards an AR.

Same here! I did have one minor problem with my PT-140. Sent it in for warranty work on Monday and had it back on Friday.

Nuke, bring one to a LAV class. Every gun or accessory he points on in class and says will fail, usually does. When he was at Metacon we had a guy with a Taurus and yep, he had problems with it.

Perhaps at the range having fun is one thing. Running some of these guns in a class is another story.

Ohh.. LOL, I wouldn't take my taurus PT145 to an actual combat course. The thing is a compact handcannon with 10+1 of 45acp, but kicks quite a bit. I rather take a glock or something similar.  8)

running 1,000 rounds through a pistol class wil usually reveal a pistol's flaws.
