I had a PT92 that I bought from @Hayata (Yes, I actually talked Tommy into selling a gun!). The PT92 is the only Taurus that I've ever owned. I liked that PT92 more than I did the 92fs that I had. I still regret selling that gun to @Balthaz. I hope your wife is still enjoying it as much as I did, Will.

The article does say that it was 8,000 handguns sold to the Yemenis, but Taurus makes firearms that many aren't aware of.

Like the MT9 G2 submachine gun. I shot one and liked it okay, but I only fired 2 magazines (68 rounds total). Not enough to get a true feel for it, or gauge reliability.

Yeah, haterz gonna hate. My Taurus 1911 is a shooter, too.

Wait, you SOLD the 92?

Best thing about a network, you don't have to advertise what you sell.

To be honest, I haven't seem any problems from the Taurus semi autos. However, my experience has been that their revolvers are pure junk. This is based on a sample size of three- two Tracker .357s and one .45ACP with moon clips. All three had problems with the firing pin not returning into the frame and locking up the cylinder.


And I'm definitely no expert.

Yes she still shoots this pistol and keeps it in her car as a Backup pistol.
