Sorry, couldn't resist the alliteration
Ok... Taurus hate/love aside. I've shot one of the "perfect" Tauruses..(Taurii?) anyhow I know that flawlessly functioning ones DO exist, just not this one.
9 shot Taurus Tracker .22 revolver.
My old man picked this up about a year or so ago now, and from day one, the dang thing hates to be used in DA. 1-2 times a cylinder, the gun seems to lose it's timing, and locks up the cylinder out of position, and freezing the trigger in place.
The gun went to Taurus within the first 2 weeks... was returned with the same problem untouched.
The gun went back after a conversation with the local Rep... came back and while not quite as often, still has the same, easily reproducible problem
We'll be trying to get it sent back again at no cost to my Dad, ( I'm about done with this little brat of a revolver)
Anyone else having these sorts of issues with the 9 shot Taurus? Other brands of lower-end DA/SA plinkers?
This one can't have even 200 rounds through it yet, possibly just more breaking-in to do?
Should we be demanding Taurus replace the gun outright at this point? 3 trips to their shop is 2 too many in my book.
