Opinions on Taurus Guns
My friend is thinking of buing a Taurus handgun (not sure of the model, possibly Millennium). I don't know much about this brand so I wanted to get everyones opinion.

Shmevy, my experience with Taurus guns has been good to excellent. I have owned several and they have all been great guns. the price is right and the warranty is for life. I had a 6" revolver that outshot my Smith 686. I think Taurus has actually gotten better over the past 10 years. Taurus gets a thumbs up here.[;)]

I agree with Don.

Many shooters have told me about the great factory warranty service they got when their Tauri broke. My problem with that is, my Rugers, Colts, & S&Ws have never broken. Think about it.

I have a Taurus Stainless 686 .357. I have fired at least 2000+ rounds and it is still tight and accurate. Smiths and Rugers are quality guns as well, but Taurus offers for the price an almost iriesistible deal. Luck!

Apparently the quality has improved in the last decade or so. I had a model 65 several years back that went in for repair of a bent ejector rod 3 different times. I finally traded it on a S&w 66.

I have the Taurus 92AF. It has ate several thousand rounds of 9MM and gets cleaned whenever the mood hits and that aint often. I consider it a truck/boat/4 wheeler gun. It shoots very well, never jams and I would buy another Taurus in a heart beat. 0 -
I have a taurus 92f 9mm. It has shot everything I every put in it. I have shot heavy loaded hollow points, to lightly loaded lead. All funciions well. I have never had a problem with it. Probable 10,000+ rounds down the barrel.
My brother has a stainless one, same thing.

I sold a lot of Taurus over the years. They make a good quality firearm. The ones in the last 15 years are very good quality.

I've had at least one dealer I respect tell me that he was sick of dealing with Taurus because of quality control problems with their guns. (But that problem went away when Taurus guns became non-MA compliant. . .he can't sell them now even if he wanted to!).
So that was a few years back. . .don't know if things have gotten better or not, so you can take this with a grain of salt.0
