New Taurus Spectrum 380

[Pandaz3]

Well a 2017 Model that I am considering (I don't know why I like mouse guns but I do) is the Taurus Spectrum, it is around $285, kind of high, but you only go around once.

That doesn't look too bad. I'm not a Taurus guy, and frankly one of my friends just bought a Millennium G2 that had the magazine release break before even 1 round was fired. But that Spectrum will at least be worth a look!

i got some really mean things I want to say but I probably should just bite my lip.

I'll just stick with I hope it shoots better than it looks.

I was actually figuring on more colors based on their promo!

 

[IronMonster]

More than the 20 or so it shows?

I didn't see pink, purple, orange etc.

You didn't look very hard, pink purple and orange are all there for the accent colors

Get a Makarov in Russian 9 or .380ACP and call it good.

Shame on me for not watching a Taurus promo that closely.

Not a fan of taurus polymer semi-autos but if you do get it, let us know how it is. From my experiences, I would say most Taurus guns i've shot had horrible triggers. I do love the PT92 , PT1911, Taurus judge, and their revolvers though. Who knows, the spectrum is new for 2017 and for the price point they may have made it worth while.

I played with these at SHOT. The trigger is wide, very smooth, and quite light DA. The LCP II trigger isn't any better. The ergonomics on the pistol are amazingly good. It does have the small, milled into the slide sights. If the quality is good, I think they have a hit on their hands.

I have a Taurus G2 and a 605 revolver, I have their address if they break. I have a new FMK coming in from a promotion, I already have one and it is too close to a G-19 for me I'd rather have something different. I kind of collect 380's

So they are going after those looking for a carry gun after the florida night club massacre?

 

[Pandaz3]

I bet they want those guys money and your money too!

Like a scaled down 709 with rounded edges and a better mag release and possibly a better (less mushy) trigger.

Interesting looking pistol. Will be curious to see how the reviews come out.

Well for what it is worth my Boss's Boss has ordered one of these in pink. Range reports to follow. LOL Really!
Love the Colt Mustang in 380 however.

Have my mak 380 but these might be worth a look and listen.

I have a Mustang XSP, my favorite of eight pocket 380's, but I always like to try another 380.

also have a G2 no problems with mine so far, but recently heard some of the new batches where having that problem, and some trigger safety issues, good firearm though, just drag it though the mud first to make sure you trust it.
is there better out there, of course.
is there better New for 260$ maybe but at least it isn't a high point.

Taurus has been trying to make a better name for themselves they just need to open there eyes to more quality control. From what i understand they seem to be handmade or assembled by hand. so with anything you get the Monday, Wednesday, and Friday guns, just like any other industry.
