There's that S&W superiority again. Take a loooong look at the recalls in the link.
That and the fact that S&W was sued over the SIGMA by Glock and Glock won.
Those links can be brought forth if needed.
Since the Taurus users actual use trumps others who have no Tauri then anything else written about them would seem irrelevant.
S&W builds good guns. They do not have the corner on the market for overall assumed superiority.-------------------------------------------------------
The above is from another thread at TFL forum. This is from a dredged up ancient thread about a year old that some one felt obiliged to add their 2 cents worth to. Why after almost a year the advice was tacked on we can only guess at.
The OP had or would have made his choice long before that. Nor did he say which way he did choose. We wish him the best on which ever choice he made.
The same thing happened there as here.Those who had little or no direct experience with the product were either saying something else was superior when that was not the proven case. No hard data don't you know. Or the "anointed ones" who feel they are superior to everyone were to take their word as gospel over the owners who actually used the product and it ws found satisfactory by the msjority of users.
Rossi builds good ones,too. Their users have the actual experience with the guns. No one else does.
So look all the evidence over that is put forth and then decide wisely.
What ever fiits you and your needs better is the one to pick.
