Taurus PT-58 ?

[RonGoode]

Anyone have one or know about them? I'm curious as to size. How it compares to a pt 92 as I figure they're very similar. I'm thinking of getting a .380 and I like Bersas, these (the Taurus PT-58) and the Berretta Cheetah. Are the Taurus and berrettas so big that they are comparable to a 9mm made by their respective companies? I found a Taurus PT-58 on gun broker for 300.00 and it really catches my eye. Thanks.

Yes, and those of several other companies. I have a Beretta 86 (a similar gun but with a single-stack mag, tip-up barrel and selective double action), and it is the same overall size as a Glock 19, an 11- (or 16-) shot 9mm.

How do you like the tip up?

One guy warned me it got loose.
