My son bought a Taurus Millennium Pro in 45 ACP eight days ago. It seemed to work well at first except for that funny DA only trigger pull. But today on the second trip to the range, after only about 125 rounds total, pieces started falling out of it.
It failed to fire and Matt popped the mag. A small piece of broken steel fell out of the bottom of the mag well. He racked the slide and a second piece fell out.
Apparently it had something to do with the striker because the DA trigger pull now does not work. The piece was broken along clean lines and was clearly brittle cheap steel.
I've had Taurus pistols before and they were great. And many people are happy with even this model. But Matt and I have fired a lot of weapons and this is the first time for either of us we had broken pieces fall out of a gun.
Maybe Taurus is resting too much on its old rep?
