Weird curved pistol for carry.

[Cotton69]

Picked this up for 100.00,thought it had been runover.But made by Taurus to curve against your body,380 cal shoots great even has light and laser that is real close to bullet impact.

Don't shoot it sideways or you'll just hit your aggressor in the toes.

 

[Cotton69]

Yeah I see why they put a laser on it!The end of the barrel is tapered with the slide ,non snag.ha

The other reason for the laser is, as you can see, the Taurus Curve has no sights at all

 

[Cotton69]

Yeah,would be a close range pistol for sure.It has grooves on back of slide but needs fresh white paint.They dont make these anymore am sure it's worth a ton of money ha ha.

One of those gimmicks that just didn't quite take off.

It's a non-starter for us lefties.........and people that care about quality.

 

[Cotton69]

Yeah right hander for sure!This one was carried a lot,and not shot much,just another toy to play with,price was right anyway.

A run-over Taurus for $100.

Yep.

It could last a lifetime. As a paperweight.

Out of curiosity, I looked at one of these at a gun show many years ago. They came out in 2014, discontinued in 2018. I'd call this a utilitarian gun for non-gun people. Because it has practical design features for everyday use that are non-traditional. Like the built-in belt clip.

Did you get the trigger cover and lanyard with it?

Taurus Curve .380 ACP

Guns frequently eat into my ribs at work and poke me in restaurants. Sitting on a 1911 on a long car trip can be adequate to make you poor company. The reason is guns are generally designed for shooting, not for carrying. The carrying piece has typically been an afterthought. Until now.

My penchant for unusual guns is overridden by the fact it is Taurus. You know the quality has to stink pretty bad to get there and yet BrazTech rose to the challenge.

Gmerkt,no didnt get box and trigger cover.You have to turn on laser and light or both with a ressesed slide button.Sqweeze both sides of magazine to remove,no button.Nice smooth double action.Yeah a Taurus, knew I would get some poo poos but an unusual pistol design,I like it.

I wouldn't mind shooting one to just see what's it's like but I wouldn't carry it, kind of a cool idea if you think about it though

I kinda like them for what they are. One of the things I don't like about concealed carry is the added bulk, no matter how small/light of a holster. With the belt clip built into the Curve, the need for a holster is eliminated. On those rare occasions when I carry a gun, it's in a jacket pocket, no holster. I probably wouldn't buy the Curve for several reasons, but I can see how they'd appeal to some people for pure carry protection. Who, God willing, will never need to fire a shot.

You won't get badly hurt on this purchase for $100.
