I bought my g2c when it first came out for $179. Best gun deal I ever made.
Same here man. I bought me and my wife one on the same day when they first came out and paid $400 for both of them. I edc mine and I own Sigs and Glocks. I have never had a single issue with mine and neither has my wife.
Me too going for my second one also I want a g3c
Got mine for $209. Just wish it would take +P ammunition
@@joshdavis8928 I've got to run some of that +P .I've yet to try that
@@rhdtv2002 Do not use +p in it. Checked at a gun shop and was advised not to. They're not built to take the extra pressure.
I know that this will upset some people but I'll take 2 of these over a Glock. 😊
Thanks David
And have money left
Me Too!! 😎
Let them get pissed
I love my Glocks, but I will be picking up a G3C.
Taurus is killing it these days. Everything they are coming out with now is just amazing for the price point and design. Just WOW Taurus, WOW. You guys have earned my respect!
Yes siiiiiiirrrr!!!💪💪💪
You sound so cheesy lol
WOW TAURUS WOWWWWWW
I bought the new millennium some years ago and when it broke they would not stand behind their product and I would never buy another tour is in my life
so how many do you own and how many rounds have you put through em? I just can't bring myself to ever trust a Taurus not to blow up in my face, fire with the safety on, or some other ghastly malfunction and I'll easily spend at least $100 MORE to get a known good gun like Beretta or Glock....
Robert Maybeth a few guys on youtube have shot 10,000 rounds through them without a problem, so its proven🤷🏾♂️
At this point Taurus hate is just people with too much money looking down on affordable options.
No argument here
The G2C is AMAZING!!!! IT SHOOTS ANYTHING THROWN AT IT!!! G3 IS A GREAT ADDITION TO THE FAMILY!!! I LOVE MY G2C!!!!!!
I have bought and sold 8 different Taurus pistols. Started with the PT111 G2, then the G2C, and now the G3C. I just picked up a G3C T.O.R.O. after selling off my last PT111 G2. While they have all been more reliable than I had ever imagined, all the evolutionary upgrades have really changed the overall experience with the platform. Thankfully, Taurus has taken the Glock approach to pistol model evolution. They are way better than their price point would suggest. Haters can hate all they want, I honestly trust mine and my families life with the G series pistols. While I’ve been able to afford more expensive pistols, and I have some really nice firearms, the Taurus G series is the one that continually rides with me.
I had one and never had one complaint with it other than I let my grandfather shoot at one time and he has really large hands and the slide cut his thumb because he wrapped it around the back incorrectly which was sort of my fault I should have been paying attention to his grip pasture and could have helped him to avoid that but other than that I never had any complaints from anyone I let shoot it or myself my wife who is only 100 lb 5 ft tall head issues cocking it so I may look into getting a lighter recoil spring if I can to make it easier for her but they are damn good little carry guns for sure plus the price of them you can't get upset if it gets scratched up or dropped and couched a little bit or anything else they're great little guns for the price for sure you could get two of those and still have two or $300 in your pocket compared to what you would pay for a Glock and to me they are more comfortable in my hand than any black I've ever held! And I've never ever ever had one issue with Taurus and I've had probably 25 of them throughout time!
Glocks are subpar and not worth the money they charge , Buy a CZ ,Walther , HK ,Springfield armory. FN all better than a stock glock
Lol those facial expressions when hes trying to limp wrist 😂😂
Haha thanks Drew
Yep, too good!
It's the patented Firearm Guy Limp Wrist Test. Hehehe...
I was wondering what he was doing 🤣
I imagined a touch of heartburn or gas 😮
Have a G2C for my edc but now you got me thinking about adding another bull to the barn.
The Magazine and Holster compatibility really helped me , I have a Canik TP9SF with both 18 and 20 round magazines . Thank you . good review .
Have both but partial to the loaded chamber indicator on the g2c, especially in the dark. My bedside gun. Love em both!!!
I agree. A dedicated, mechanical, loaded chamber indicator is*(edit) a must on a pistol for me. So to get that feature at the crazy low price point of a g2c, plus the decent 12rnd capacity; makes it the one to choose.
Thanks for an excellent description of the guns.
Nice review. Thank you.
Aside from cosmetic, are the G2c and G3c magazines interchangeable?
Another good video Dan, you talked me right into it. Always glad to see the limp wrist test.
Thanks brother
Thanks for sharing. I just bought a G2C from BPS. I'm loving it, and the warranty.
Great review. Have a G2c at my FFL. Looking fwd to getting comfortable with this pistol. Great channel btw. Been a great resource for a relatively new gun owner.
Taurus is the only brand that doesn’t rip you off
Thanks for addressing the holster question.
Very cool bud
Very informative video. I will get one sooner or later. When ever they come more available. For now I will enjoy shooting the older pt111 more than my g2c. Another great video my friend
Frank castle approved 😉
Thanks for the great range review on both pistols! This review just sealed my decision on getting one from my wife for Christmas this year! I am 44 and have carried a pistol for a long time now, i am excited to get, shoot and carry this one! Big shout out to you here feo Michigan! Thanks man
Excellent video. You're very knowledgeable and explained everything very well.
Best comparison I've seen on these 2 handguns. Thanks!
Steve Lewis agreed, he did a very good job on this one. No stones left unturned.
Thanks Steve
I'm not an experienced shooter but just bought a 3GC and the first things I noticed was the comfort when gripping and the trigger pull. Very comfortable
I just bought mine 3 weeks ago and yes that trigger is awesome it fires so nice well worth the money to good choice
Not experienced either and I picked up one of these today. Feels great.
They’re accurate too
I don’t know if I like the sights though on the g3c I have the g2c and was thinking about going to get a g3c I am kinda miss those white sights tho it’s just black on the 3c though I wear glasses so could just be me
@@chrismanchac3311 I ended up w a G2 also and hardly notice a difference. I guess I prefer the sights on the g3
Really informative, glad I watched before deciding which to purchase.
Just got the G3 as my very first gun ever. I can’t wait to test it and master it.
I've had the G2C for some time now and have been well satisfied with it. The G3 modifications seem to be well thought out improvements. Thanks for the head-to-head review.
Is it bigger?
now how many of those teflon coated parts will fit in a G2C?
Replaced the front sight with a Ameriglo Glock sight. Had to file down the post in order to tighten down. Frame dim must be thinner. G3c fits Outlaw IWB perfect.
Hello and thank you so much for this video. Doing some research now on a firearm purchase and came across this, excellent information, well done, and appreciate all of the work that went into putting this thing together. It was very helpful
Much appreciated Harry
Excellent review Dan
Youve pointed out some things that I have not heard from the reviews ive seen. Makes me feel better about recently picking up the g2c. Thanks for input.
Yeah, Dan manages to pack more info into half the time, making these some of the best reviews out there!
Plus "the limp wrist test" haha
Thanks Zack
I have had a G2 for years and love it. I probably shot a thousand of rounds through it and have never had a problem with it. I have all the single stack guns and the 365 which is a hell of a gun but will still carry this G2 sometimes. It was probably 1/3 the cost. I love that I can put my laser bullet in it and practice with my laser target because of the restrike capability. I has vastly improved my shooting.
P365 is easily the best micro pistol out there. They shoot nice for being so small
Love the laser training just as much as you sharing that... love the GX4.... but miss the double strike for the training... HEY TAURUS..... they will have one soon, every time I ponder..... they seem to deliver, great job Taurus 👍
That sight upgrade was so needed, could buy the Lake Line aftermarkets for the G2c but whats the use if the G3c comes with steels from factory, better to just sell off the G2 and make the switch, great vid, nice and condensed, easy to watch.
I always say this but it’s always true. Great videos, keep it up. Always looking forward to them.
Thank you for sharing your comparison between the G2C and the G3C. I purchased a G2C right after Taurus introduced it after owning a PT111 G2 since May 2015. The refinements in the G2C have worked well for me and I like the trends you've shown us in the G3C. On a side note I just purchased a TX22 that was made in Georgia. Thanks again!
Excellent! I have the TX22 competition. What a great pistol
@@TheFireArmGuy Thanks for reviews like yours, I just purchased the G3C and glad I did.
Thank you for another interesting video! I have a G2C and like it very much. It’s nice to know that Taurus has introduced the G3C.
Thanks Steve
In depth review, nice work Dan, stay healthy brother. Both shooters are keepers
Thanks Justin
Great comparison, thanks. Looks like an improved trigger and tenifer finish on the new one would make it a worthwhile addition. The fixed (drift adjustable)sights are actually better on this type pistol, IMO.
Thanks Eugene
Thank you for a great demo on these guns. I just got a g2c. Was glad to find someone in my area that actually had the gun and amo in person, and they didn't take advantage by asking outrageous prices.
Great review, both entertaining and informative. Thanks for the information about, the Kydex holsters. I thought the G3c, would slide right into a G2c holster. Be Safe!
Thanks JD
I have Taurus PT140 2G, and I'm wondering if there is a compatible magazine with more capacity like you showed on this video.
Great video by the way. I like your channel.
I have a G2C and they made it in Bainbridge, GA too.. not only the G3C are made there but G2C as well
I've had my G3c now for a few months.
I love this weapon.
I take it to the range, roll the target out to 30 yards (freaking the 20' range bunnies out) and bang 10 in the 6" targets with ease. It's wonderfully controllable and easy to keep on target with negligible muzzle climb.
Breakdown and cleaning is a snap. I've run over 500 rds through it so far and never a misfeed or misfire. And I don't go pop! ...breathe...aim...5 seconds later pop!
I bang 10 rds straight out at 2 rds a second and have never had a problem. The trigger pull is just right with reset coming quickly and smoothly.
Great weapon for an even greater price. Excellent carry weapon. Lightweight. Compact. Accurate. Reliable. Home run Taurus.
I know all I need to know so I own BOTH but I carry the G3C with the 15 round TAURUS extended magazine with the Bloody Wheels sleeve.
Great and thorough review Dan.
Thanks Leonard
Thanks for the review. Was looking for mag compatibility for my G2C so as to get a MCk for it.
I had a g2c, and a nice dependable accurate gun it was. I had no issue with the trigger at all, and except for steel cased ammo, with tulammo being the worst, it ran everything perfectly. The only knock I had with it was the poor finish. A friend now has that gun. with the tougher finish on the g3c i just might get myself one
Ever since my canik tp9 purchase a couple years ago, I’ve been on a budget gun kick. Recently got the AREX Delta m gen 2 to go with my bersa tpr9 and iwi Masada. I used to be a gun snob with 2011s and although great, I just don’t see them being 4-5 times the money and also don’t mind beating up my budget guns. The AREX Delta gen 2 is my favorite of the bunch.
How do u like the canik?
Nice comparison. Looks like enough small changes to give the G3C a shot at that price point. Nice review as always!
Think about it this way...If Glock made half of those changes, they would call it a gen 6 and people would be raving about it.
Good comprehensive review. Have been looking for comparisons.
Glad it was helpful!
Just bought some property and building my house in Texas so I need something cheap and reliable the G3C is perfect for me right now thanks for the video
Same here bro, I got 120 acres in the hill country two years ago, they finally finished with the house last month. I went with a barndominion and couldn’t be happier.
G-Wally, that's swell!
Sign me up for both models.
Both are good. I also have the PT111 Millennium which is good. The only con I have is that I like the loaded chamber indicator for low light conditions and while carrying in a pocket holster. Otherwise there are some decent improvements.
Very informative video! Well done!
Wow! This has to be one of your longer reviews, but very nicely done. Very thorough explanation of the somewhat subtle, but useful improvements over the previous model. It appears that the only place Taurus dropped the ball was not maintaining the slide contour so the G3c would actually fit in G2c holsters. I imagine that could discourage some folks from upgrading, or tick them off when they made the change without seeing this review, only to find that their upgraded “budget” pistol required more money for a new holster. (Maybe Multi-Holster will offer a low cost service re-contouring existing G2c holsters to fit the G3c?)
Thanks Rider. Had to cover a lot with this one
My G3 fits in my G2c iwb kidex holster, will a G3 fit that holster?
TheFireArmGuy will a G3 fit in the holster in your video? Thx for the great videos
The gun store worker literally told me the g2c“ is in high demand and extremely popular “ right before I bought it😄
I just bought one! How do you like it so far?
@@corybraswell510 Absolutely love it! Best budget pistol around! My sister has the G3c also a great gun!
Very informative, thanks Dan for your time.
Much appreciated S P
Just bought a G2C about a month ago!! I bought it for my wife and she absolutely loves it!
Taurus really has stepped it up w/the newer model. Heck, they coulda just mic dropped w/that 3rd mag, but they added the other enhancements as well.
Agreed bud
One thing I like about the G2C is that it has a round chambered indicator and the G3C doesn't
I bought the G3C TORO a few days ago, and it DEFINITELY has a "round chambered indicator."
unless you live in commifornia and need one to tell cops, you can see it is unloaded now buzz off, what good is it?
Your reviews are the best.
I got a g2c and I really like it. I just got it about a month or less ago. I'm happy thanks for the review.
I'm keeping both of my G2Cs! Love the chamber indicator. 🔫🧐
Who needs a chamber indicator when you have rule one of gun safety?
@@andrewjansen9702☝️🤓
Way to sneak that limp wrist in there, i didnt even see it coming 😂😂! And that was a GREAT review for compare and contrast. Excellent content Dan! And good shootin too!
Much appreciated Rillo
Thanks for your insight brother
G2c love the chamber indicator. Good Stuff Dan. 🙏🇺🇸🙏
I think the best things about the G3c over the G2c are the slide finish, the upgraded trigger and finally the all-steel guide rod that they changed with the G3. The next generation will hopefully include texturing the memory pads and making optic cuts and the manual safety optional. Great side-by-side review. I'm glad you covered the Kydex holster bit since holsters are so essential for an EDC weapon. Also seeing you attempt the slide swaps was a good idea.
Much appreciated J T
A heat gun could be used to move the G2c indentations out on the holster
The Taurus factory is Brazilian, but does not sell G3 and G3c to Brazilians. Unbelievable! Congratulations to the United States, the real country of freedom. Great video! Congrats! Sergio Oliveira, from Brasília-DF/Brazil.
wow surprising to me because it seems like every other video on youtube is of a shootout in brazil?
PM e guardas municipais usam , mas cidadao nao... G3 só nao estreou ainda , porque agencia de certificação do exercito ainda nao liberou todas as licenças , previsao é dezembro ou janeiro de 2021
Not free but ok.
I just bought one 2 weeks ago very happy and impressed with it
Great review.
Another great video Dan. Interesting date to the pistol. I m still not sold on Taurus. The customer service is still spotty and aside from the “g” series their quality is also still spotty
Disagree. This gun can stand up with any other
im seeing the stainless g2c around for 260 new
Thanks bro I been waiting for this video😎
Thanks Alex
Concise and informative. Perfect video, thanks!
Thanks C S
The main reason I'd consider getting the G3c would be if they reduced the initial trigger pull weight of the G2c. Since they didn't, I don't see enough of a reason to get the newer model.
That’s weird considering the trigger pull is less than glock 19 gen 5
I have always liked taurus and have had good experiences. Granted, mostly revolvers and they have been pretty great.
I currently use the G2C at my GHB gun (or my backup to my concealed carry pistol). Phenomenal quality to say the least.
Fantastic Video one of the best reviews ive even seen on a hand gun. Very thorough. I have the G3c. Ive been into guns for years. Just in random bought this gun for the wife
Didnt know it was so popular. Turns out it is. And a great deal for the money.
Hi TFG and G3C fans. I can confirm that it fits perfectly in the kydex holsters that Concealment Express sells for the G2C.
Im willing to bet rawdog will work, since it has a leather base and i have reshapped their berretta 92 holster to fit a model1951 single stack and it was close before i heated it.
That's interesting. I heard good things about their new products.
Thanks Eric
@@TheFireArmGuy You're welcome Dan
I have the 2c and is a fun and reliable gun! Never had a failure after 1500 runds
I've a Taurus 45 in the past it was great but a month ago I bought the G2C 9mm it's a great gun in considering using it for a conceal and carry gun
Where and when can I get one?
Great report, you obviously know your stuff. Much appreciated! Thank you for your depth of knowledge.
I appreciate that
@@TheFireArmGuy ... I've subscribed to your channel and thumbs up! Keep up your yeoman efforts! I need to get up to speed with my G2c. Thank you!
Can you go into details of the magazine compatibility on both g2c and g3c?
Have a great weekend everyone!
Thanks Leland
I would love a trigger shoe upgrade for the G2, if that's a possibility. I like the flat trigger shoes.
Apex makes one for it 🤷🏻♂️
Check out Keep Tinkering triggers. Its also on youtube.
Seems like a couple good responses Q
Thanks!
Definitely try keep tinkering
so will sig 226 mags work in the g2c ? Or just the G3’s
Great sight for information for a new gun owner
I purchased two G-2-CS early this year @$200.00 each. Wonderful little weapons . . .
Thats a sweet deal there going for 250 or more now days. I got my wife the g2c in the Tiffany green back in may 250 out the door. Thought it was a good deal at 250. The mom an pop gun shop by my house were wanting 300 on up for the color models.
@@paulsecrest9427 Good for you & her. I sold my second to a good friend since I already had a few compact 9m.m.s
I love my G2C...... replaced the guide rod spring with SS.... off to the races. Its been a great gun!! I even put TruGlo sights on it.... Totally a "go to gun"! Shoots everything I have ever put thru it. If I were looking again?
I would not hesitate on that G3C.
Well said Cranky
What kind of difference can you tell switching from the plastic rod to a metal one if any? I was thinking of doing the same thing if it’s worth it
@@84jamesp great question. I am a prevent kind of guy. The reviews I have read..... indicated that the spring "could" possibly displace itself over time, and that was not the case with the stainless steel spring/guiderod. It didn't cost much to me.... and certainly made sense to me is all. So I did it..... Have to say I do feel more confident with the switch. I think I got it from Galloway.
@@84jamesp shooting wise...... no real change.
Excellent review.
Have a great July 4th holiday
Thanks Joe
Great video review thanks
I have both, I like the pop up loaded indicator on the 2c. In the middle of the night in the dark I can feel that a round is chambered or not. I prefer the trigger on the 3c. They are both capable of great accuracy if you do your job. The Taurus fever must have affected my judgement because I had to buy the 17 round G3 that comes with a 15 round mag.
Thanks Robert
Hello Robert, if you can pick one of them, which one will you chose?
I can only assume Taurus grew up in NY and moved to Florida, where it had kids, and those kids ended up growing up and moving from Florida to Georgia. That's how it works with people, anyway.
Good stuff
I like your comparison vids. Keep it up!
Thanks bud
Nice going Dan. Have a safe 4th of July!!
Thanks Louis you too
Does anybody know if they will be coming out with it in .40?
Was wondering this the other day in regards to the g3c
I’m not gonna lie. I loved my Glock 19 Gen 4. But since I just purchased the G2c for $150 at a gun shop I love it way more than the Glock. It’s lighter, it’s smaller and it fits in my hand so well. Shooting it feels natural and not like I settled for the Glock. I paid about $680+ for my Glock. It was good it did what it was supposed to but I had to get used to shooting the Gen 4 and I had to compromise on the things that I didn’t like about it. With the G2c like I said when I brought it home I cleaned it, oiled it and took it to the range on my property. That’s when I was like is this really happening? A cheap brand of gun that I was always told to stay away from my whole life is actually better than one of the top dogs. Shit I’ll be buying a few more of Taurus’s guns. The only thing I’ve had to change about the G2c are the sights. But I had to do that with my expensive ass Glock lol. Glad I bought this Taurus no regrets. It is and will be my EDC.
Great comparison video! So glad I’m a subscriber
Much appreciated Ross
Just bought the g3c and I love it!!!
I own the Taurus G3 model and the G2C and couldn't be happier with the choices I made! Great video by the way!!
What amo is for the Taurus G3C
@@amberkemble6340 I use Federal, Remington, and TulAmmo ammunition for mines. 115 grain...
Taurus has literally revived their company on the backs of these workhorse pistols!
Not literally but I get what you're saying.
Where to buy in this price online? Good review , thanks
Thx for vid. I'd be interested to see if there's any difference in concealed carry, comfort...
Can't imagine so
