  • I know there is a lot of Taurus hate out there and most of it is warranted. However, i do challenge you to try one of their new production pistol. Heck of a lot of performance for the buy-in price!!!

    Haters can hate and you’ll never change their minds…I have 4 Taurus pistols now and all of them perform flawlessy…two Toro models ( G3 and G3C ) and two regular without the optic option…I have about 800 rounds out of each …aluminum case, steel case , reloads and new….no problems, no hiccups, no failures…nothing…loads JHP’s just fine and always has…with all that said, you will still have the haters…their loss…the full size G3’s are my favorite

      I was just going to ask if it would feed HP's.. Glad you mentioned that.. Thanks.. I want a pistol that will fire good self defense ammo.. I'm in Indiana and we don't have to have a license to carry .. I'll use it mostly at home, but if I have to go to Indy or where two legged predators roam, I'll have protection. I've been looking at the XL verison which I like for carry.. The grip size prints on me if it's too big..

      ⁠@@hoosierdaddy2308This G3 is considered full size I’d say because of ammo capacity in the factory magazines. The one I purchased came with 17 round magazines and 15… I love this pistol for myself. I trust it with my life everyday.

      Looking to potentially purchase a G3. I own a Canik that is incredibly reliable. If I were to buy the G3, will it perform as a decent EDC & range gun?

    Taurus had a ruff start making guns and most people have that in their minds. They have really turned things around. I live in the country and have several name brand pistols. When I have to go out at night to check unusual noises, I grab my G3 Taurus.

    Bought this as my first gun! Didn’t have the budget for anything high end but the store owner did tell me that this gun was one of the best budget pistols you could get for the price. So I ended up getting especially for the fact that it held 17+1! Did not see any other guns there that cheap with that much capacity especially in 9mm. The only others I seen that cheap were 22s. Can’t wait to hit the range. And glad to know I got something reliable. EDIT, gun is awesome! It’s very fun to shoot

  • @mauricioaspee

    I too have one. Super accurate and great gun. Taurus has some nice accessories for it too like custom barrels, slides, extra capacity mags and springs. I have a Glock 17 and a 1911 too. As soon as I test out my new barrel and slide, it will be my EDC.

      The trigger on Taurus is better and I own several mid and high tier guns. So I'm not biased. The Taurus grip is better than most mid tier guns including glock and M&P. Sig is one that has a better trigger though.

    Great video.
    I am looking at one.. I also noticed in the comments someone said that it shoots Hollow points ok.. That's important to me as I want to use good defense ammo..
    I also looked it up and you can buy the pyramid sights for it which are great sights if you've not tried them.. I was originally going to get a glock 48, but why spend the extra money? With the savings I can get some ammo and a good holster and maybe a light..
    Thanks again. Great vid..

    Just picked one up a PSA for $219.99 plus tax. total $233. 2 mags.17 and 15 round magazines included. The guy behind the gun counter could not believe sale on the website. Great pistol! not just for the money but at any reasonable price. If you pass up a sale on this pistol you're just not thinking. Shoots great and the trigger is better than the G2. You can also upgrade the trigger for about $27 at Galloway Precision.

    Why do people hate in Taurus so much? I just bought a G3 after not knowing whether I wanted a M&P or a higher priced gun with red dot sights etc. I chose this gun because I respect the Taurus brand, and plus i thought about it, and 6-800 dollars to spend on a gun just seemed kinda dumb. I think people only buy certain brands to say"yeah, I have that" . I bought this gun because I don't follow trends. I will buy a more expensive gun later on. I haven't shot this yet since I bought it, I will soon. I love how it fits in my hand though.

    • @TheHide

    I recently purchased my first tourist ever. I’ve purchased the Taurus, TH 45 ACP. I got it for $475. This one comes with two magazines that hold 13 rounds. And I have only been able to cycle one complete magazine through it. I have been having a lot of trouble with it, we tore the gun down and oiled it and cleaned it and we are still having a lot of trouble with it. I have since talked with Taurus, and the gun is under warranty being that it’s only three weeks old and I am trying to get a new one completely replaced they are wanting to try to fix it. And even though people tell me not to purchase a Taurus I wanted to judge them on my own merit and I hope I did not have or get buyers remorse. So please wish me luck and hope everything comes out OK.

  • @therabbithole-sn5yb

    Im about to buy a G3 because I've seen nothing but great reviews, I was leaning towards the CZ P10c because ive owned acouple CZs & loved them, but after watching all the reviews & being able to get the G3 w/2 17 rd mags for $256. I think I'll be happier than w/the P10c only coming w/1 15rd mag for $331. But the other one I was considering was the tisas Zigana PX9 tactical w/a 20rd & a 18rd mag & threaded barrel for $325 because I'm not real big on the standard PX9 even though the price tag is only $226. W/2 18rd mags. Any suggestions? Im pretty sure im gonna go with the G3 though... Thanks & great video bro...

Do you know if the handle on the G3 is longer than the handle on the G2C?? I like getting that pinky finger all the way on the handle and on my G2C it's cutting it pretty close. I like your video and I just subscribed to your channel. I appreciate any feedback.. Thanks so much!!

    i have a th9c. i just cant seem to make good hits with it, i even changed out the sights to some made by lakeline. theyre good sights but still hit in the same area i was before. im guessing i just dont work with this gun or there are some tolerances off with the slide.
    With that said, im considering moving along to a g series pistol. I have shot a g3c and did a lot better with that than my th9c. Im wondering if maybe ill do even better with the slightly larger g3.
    My question is, how much bigger is the g3 than the g3c and if possible how big is the g3 compared to the th9c?
    Thanks🤙
