  • In some of our videos, we’ve briefly talked about the Taurus G3C and how it’s related to the G3X. In this video, I’ll talk about the Taurus G3X, its specs and features, why it is one of the most talked about sub compact pistols in its CCW weight class, and all the possible drawbacks associated with it. These are all to help you decide whether you SHOULD OR SHOULDN’T buy one.

    Thanks for your post on the Taurus G3X. I've had mine for a couple of years and I'm very pleased with it. In addition to the 2, 15-round factory magazines, I've added a 17-round magazine.

    G3C was my EDC. Upgraded to GX4 Carry TORO as EDC. Both works great, but the GX4 has nicer recoil than the G3C, slimmer, feels better in the hand.

    Being a CNC machine programmer. Since the 1970s Gun makers have been ripping you off. Machining a part in the 60s would take 10 man hours to complete a CNC with 5 axes machine can do it in one hour that's why Taurus sell you a good gun that is very economical and the others won't follow through they just want the profit
    Why they used 416 Stainless steel it's the easiest to machine high strength and good wear ability

    What I don't like about my G3x is the back slap caused by trigger overtravel. Not a problem for a carry gun, but it's nice to be able to hit a soda can. I carried a holstered Glock 17 for years, and the G3x is equal in fit and finish and apparent quality as the Glock.

  • @drmitofit2673
    @drmitofit2673 Před 8 měsíci +1

    I have a PT-145. If you chamber a round, slightly depress the trigger, and at the same time activate the thumb safety, the trigger mechanism will be behind the safety block, so the pistol will look like it is on safe, when it can actually fire with a full stroke trigger pull. You wouldn't be pressing the trigger when activating the safety, so this is highly unlikely to happen, but the design was NOT fool-proof. Mine also needed radiusing of the lower front ejection port, as the nose of FMJ 45 rounds would not clear the ejection port every time. It also needed a little extractor tension adjustment. After that it has been reliable, accurate, controllable, and the perfect size/capacity if you like a carry 45. A G3 45ACP would be awesome. I didn't hear about the recall replacement offer until after it was over (my fault for not sending in the product registration card to Taurus when I bought the gun). So I am kinda stuck with it, but it has always been a fun range gun and since I carry empty chamber and ignore the safety, it wouldn't be a bad carry piece either, but I use a S&W Shield Plus, or SA Hellcat Pro, or Mossberg MC2c for that now. The G2C has a good top-of-slide tactile loaded chamber indicator which was deleted in the G3 series.

  • @1jimmarch
    @1jimmarch Před 5 měsíci

    My daily driver is now a G3c, factory no-safety variant in 9mm. Damn good gun. Needs cleaning before you fire it at all because there's a spray-on layer of protectant gunk in there so it can't rust in a dealer's inventory. But 10 minutes with an old rag and Hoppe's 9 fixed that (plus basic oil) and it was Glock reliable from shot one.
    If you want a longer grip, get mags for the G3 and get plastic spacers to fill the gap with the 15 or 17rd mags.
    No need for longer grip frame variants, in my opinion.

    GARBAGE! I purchased a G2C, cleaned it and loaded it with defense rounds pending range visit. Yesterday I had a big cottonmouth in my backyard, so I decided to load some FMJ to save the hard-to-find defense rounds. Big surprise when I dropped the magazine and tried to eject the round the the chamber...the slide moves 1/4" and otherwise is locked tight. Watching CZcams videos I had come to the conclusion that the G2C was a reasonable purchase but now I know different...looking at the Taurus Forum and the HUGE number of reports of jammed slides I ave to conclude that all of the glowing reviews on CZcams are "sponsored" by Taurus. Should have learned my lesson about 10 years ago when a defective design (hammer block failure) on a PT145 Taurus compact .45 ACP resulted in my younger son taking a Ranger Talon round to the left thigh when he was trying to eject a live round in the chamber. Didn't sue Taurus, but I should have because they refunded the purchase price, which was an admission of culpability. Never heard a word about the Class Action lawsuit.
