I just got off the phone to Taurus and found out two things.


1) The new M905 won't be out until lat summer, probably August sometime!!!!

2) Taurus no longer has a custom shop!!!

I'm bummed!! :mad: :(

Is that the 9mm?

[Brian Williams]

There are S&W 940's around cause I found one for $317 out the door...


Try it You'll like it!!!!

I love mine.

[denfoote]

Wondernine, Yup!!! :D

Perfesser, I still dislike Smith and Wesson for political reasons!! :mad:

[Brian Williams]

denfoote , Then get one pre agreement or from a closeout source like CDNN or SOG IIRC all of the 547's and 940's are preA.

I might have to do that!! I, never in a million years, would have thought that I would own a Smith!! I'll give it a look!! :what:

denfoote,

If you're looking for a five shot revolver in 9mm, keep you eyes open for a Ruger SP101 in that caliber. They have discontinued them but I see them for sale used occasionally. A good friend of mine bought one on my suggestion and loves it. He carries it every day, all day long.

For reasons I can't completely explain, 9mm looses very little in performance out of short revolver barrels - much less than 38 Specials do.

I think it's because the 9mm 115 or 124gr loaded to high pressure needs less barrel to reach max velocity.

Rather a sweeping statement, there are more factors involved than caliber and barrel length. I have some .38 spl loads that only have a 30fps difference in a 2" vs. 4" barell.
