I carry a Taurus .357 five shot snubbie. One time at the range my buddies were bitchin' it shot all over the place, be-littling my carry gun. I stepped up and rattled off a quick 5 rounds and retrieved the target... "see" they said " your all over the place", laughing. I ripped down the target and held it up against his chest... there were five little red holes where his t shirt showed through... " Bingo", I said... end of conversation.

If you ask a question about a gun, car, tv. u are going to get both sides.
If your taurus works great for you, then defend it as those that don't work right will also hammer it.
I sold guns for aliving for 40 years and we never sold any bad taurus that I can remember of.. Alot, and I mean alot more pro's for taurus than cons that is for sure...
good gun,just shoot it like u stole it.

not necissarily, I mean when you pay good money on a gun you have a certain expectation of it (even if its not a high expectation) and if it doesn't meet that standard which varies from person to person you may get upset.
Just suppose if your pt1911 had been a miss you may not speak so well of taurus either. I can see why all the bashing, people have just been having worse luck with taurus then some of the other manufacturers lately.

Like Kimber, who evidently has decided to do Beta testing with the buyers?

Well I owned 2 Kimbers that jammed all the time new out of the box so I dont buy Kimber anymore.
Ruger is having a lot of recalls on their pistols right now so maybe we should not buy those either even though hundreds of thousands of other Rugers have been fine.
Colt made really crappy 1911's in the late 70's so we should not buy them either even though they have such a huge following.
My chamber seperated a tiny bit on my Springfield 1911 and even though it shoots great I should not get another one since it's made in Brazil too.
My brother bought a Hipoint and brought it out to show me how it would out shoot my Colt and Springfield for 1\3 the price, the slide fell off his Hipoint on the 3rd shot and I still wont let him live it down.
I hope you guys see where I am going with this, everyone may make a bad one and if we believed everyone who flamed over 1 gun we would be out of options so I buy whatI like and if it dont do what I need it to do I sell it and get something else....
