Taurus G3 (Good or Junk)

This guy has the defective mag catch issue:

Difference is in the numbers of complaints,49 complaint on Beretta, but 249 with Taurus. Also, reading the complaints they show Taurus holding guns indefinitely as common, and not fixing guns so the customer sells at a loss. It's clear Beretta took care of problems after they were made aware.

Beretta's BBB rating is based on times they simply did not respond to complaints.

I am still waiting on Beretta to "take care of problems" after a direct complaint (ignored), a complaint through the BBB (ignored), and a complaint through the state Attorney General's office (finally got a promise of action ... and waiting).

Right, where Taurus was 6 times higher......

I hate gambling, but 6 times the odds against you seems that you'd run away fast

For about the same price as a Taurus G3 or G3c, you can get a Stoeger STR-9C, which is a much better gun:

They are good pistols except for the fact that an entire batch of STR-9 was rejected by the Italian Banco Nazionale di Prova (National Proof Bench) because the pistols did not pass the proof test.

No; you are trying to compare different things.

Beretta was rated on "Failure to respond to 11 complaints filed against business" while Taurus had "Failure to respond to 3 complaints filed against business."

Taurus also listed total complaints and unresolved complaints, while that information was not provided in Beretta's rating.

If only Brazil had a Banco de Testes Nacional Para Armas Pequenas e Munições Comerciais, maybe the defective Millennium G2 PT111, G2c, and G3c guns wouldn't have made it out of the country.
