I just bought a new Taurus 905, stainless steel. The gun is exceptionally well made. Fit and finish is superior to a famous domestic gun maker. The cylinder lock up is positive with no slack at all. The trigger is smooth in D/A and crisp in S/A. Exterior finish is flawless, can't say that about a couple of my domestic revos.
Now for what I could find wrong. Obviously Taurus took the easy way out and simply used a .38spl cylinder with forcing cones ( I think that's the correct term) starting about midway into each chamber in the cylinder. Consequently there is almost a half inch from the tip of the bullet to the end of the cylinder. I guess that's not a bad thing, I just didn't like it. If they had redesigned the gun with a true 9mm cylinder, the gun would have been much more compact.
Second thing is the OEM moon clips that come with the gun. They really are a POS. Of the five that came with the gun, only three would hold my Speer GD's the other two are useless. The material will rust quickly and they bend very easily. There are some brands of ammo that the case is about .0001 smaller and they fall out of the clips. Taurus sells moon clips for $9.00 for five and they really are of poor quality. I have inquiries out to several moon clip makers asking if they make clips for the 905, no answers yet. If anyone knows where I can get moon clips for this gun please let me know. It is really a shame that the gun itself is one of the best Taurus revos I have seen and owned, the component needed to make the gun work, the moon clips, really are poor.
