    As a G2c brazilian owner I shoot almost 1500 round and haven’t seen any bad functions at all. Brazilians usually buys g2c because is more cheap. In Brazil g2c cost 3k and the hellcat cost 12k at least (I’m talking real brazilian currency), any ways. great budget gun. By the way: In Brazil g2c comes with hard plastic case and 3 magazines, not in the paper box as in US.

    I've shot both. And overall based on price I purchased the G2C. I have now 1000 rounds on the pistol. No jams of any kind thus far. As for the laser set up from Taurus. Black Friday I was able to get the Viridian Red Dot w/2 Mags for $100. I'm so confident thus far with the G2C as both a EDC and Home defense that I will probably buy a second G2C just for the house. Good Video Guys! New Sub.

    Just watched this and wanted to give a little tip. When breaking down the G2c, you first need to pull the slide back, slightly, then pull the breakdown pins...the breakdown can happen in less than a second, when you slightly pull the slide back...

Pull the trigger and hold the slide back just slightly with your right hand. Pull down the tabs with the left and push the slide off with the right. If you hold the slide back too far you will need to pull the trigger again. Thanks for the video.

    I carry a Sig Sauer p365 for EDC but I just got a brand new Taurus G3c for $215 (only 2 mags included tho). After 200 rounds, I feel like I robbed the seller. lol This pistol is amazing and runs hollow-points, rounds, and flat-nose like a hungry beast. It is a Glock 43x for half the price.

  • @WES-JGC-2013
    @WES-JGC-2013 Před rokem

    You have to pull the slide back on the Taurus just a little bit then pull down on the 2 sides and when you let loose of the slide it won't go into battery, then you pull the trigger, and it will slide off. I can do mine just as fast as he did the hellcat, and after adding Lakeline stainless guide rod and stainless recoil spring etc. and a small amount of polishing the slide contact points and feed ramp I'd put mine against any hellcat or Glock! Btw when you add the Olight Baldr Mini RL, it has a light and laser built into the actual lens of the light and doesn't extend past the front of the barrel, and with my Workz light bearing IWB holster it is awesome, no print and even has a slot for the Olight magnetic charger to fit in while holstered. I also recommend a Hogue Rubber grip, and even with all that it's still cheaper than the hellcat with nothing! I paid 203, when they first came out and would've paid 450-500! Also, the factory G3 15rd and 17th mags fit, along with Sig p226 mags, and Canik TLR9 mags and they make all kinds of High cap aftermarket mags including a 50 round drum.

    I have the G3C and its a excellent pistol. Im a former army Infantryman or Rifleman 11bravo. I have a few pistols from a glock 48, glock 22, kimber colt 1911 ultra carry pro 2, Canik TP9 Elite Combat, and my Taurus G3c. While all my pistols are excellent pistols the Canik has the best trigger and shoots and runs the best 800$, 1500 kimber is the most high end and you can tell its a great handgun. My glocks are just that glocks dont much need to be said glock says it all. Now that G3C i got 229$ in with 3 mags and its ny EDC and my favorite gun to abuse and shoot the hell out of. Its never jammed or malfunctioned in anyway and ive put some cheap ass ammo through her and not one malfunction outta hundreds if not close to a thousand rounds now. Just a awesome little pistol, its not the the greatest trigger bit its not that bad either boit like a glock. If ya want a awesome stock trigger go with a canik especially the TP9 Elite Combat or the Elite combat SFX or the new mete9 comapq is also amazing and its only about 500$

    The G2c chamber is not as deep as most. Mine won’t chamber certain 124gr ammo. The depth the bullet isn’t seated in the case enough. Probably the same issue y’all had with the reloads. You can get the camber reamed deeper but I just check the ammo first by making sure it’ll easily drop in the barrel while taken apart.

    Oil is cheap. That gun wasn't going fully into battery. It's possible it's the guns fault. But more likely the magazines or lack of maintenance. Some people never clean their firearms, aside from just adding oil every now and then.

    The G2C isn't so bad. It also has a re strike capability. Meaning that if you come across a bad round, press the trigger again and it will send the round down range. You can tap the mag and rack the slide to get rid of the bad round but the re strike comes in handy,also

    Nice comparison guys. I liked the friendly banter. I've never held or shot a Hellcat. I have held and shot a few Tauraus 9mm. I didn't like any of them. Polymer guns already feel cheap in my opinion.
    The Taurus pistols I held were rattle traps that felt every bit as $200 guns. I feel the same about the s&w mp2.0. Feels like junk and something I would not put my life on the line with.
    Best budget 9mm I've shot is the SAR9. Best polymer 9mms I've owned and shot are Glocks.
    Still not much of a fan. I just trust Glock reliability. A few thousand rounds of cheap ammo and reloads and not one malfunction.

    I don't even have to watch this video to know that the hellcat won 🤣. I have nothing but Taurus firearms but I live in the real world and know that a Springfield hellcat is going to be better quality than a Taurus of any kind and that's okay one's a budget firearm and the other isn't. The only way I think the Taurus g3c or g2c would shine over the hellcat is that it could fill the role of a home defense gun as well because you can mount a light. But just solely as a concealed carry option the hellcat wins hands down in my opinion wish I could afford one. Now I'm gonna watch this video and see if I stuck my foot in my mouth 😂

    I used to think the Taurus G2c was a great gun, people can get angry all they want. But I paid for a training class before, and it was four people in there that brought the Taurus G2C. & one had a Sccy. all 5 of them was having serious problems. The guns was not going into battery, failing to feed, failing to eject, To the point the trainer Stopped them from using the guns in his class, issued them P365's and Hellcats for the rest of day, they had no more issues & two of the people bought Hellcats. I can only go by what I see. And this video confirms that. I went in there with the Shield 2.0 and had zero issues.. Sometimes you get what you pay for.
