Every manufacturer has some percentage of guns with quality issues. What matters the most is having a manufacturer that you know will stand behind their product if you happened to get a problem gun.

Hence my earlier comment about Taurus's poor reputation for customer service. I understand your current handgun is a "good one", but that is meaningless when making the decision to purchase the next firearm if you cannot rely upon customer service to take care of you.


Don't know about their customer service, have never had to use them, but again there are some who say it is great and others who say it's terrible, kind of depends on who you want to listen to :???: . Having said that it wouldn't have any bearing on buying another Taurus if it was a great deal. But then again I'm the type of guy that WILL NOT send food back at a resturant for any reason, if I don't like it I just don't eat it, but it's not not going back.

Re: Comments on Ruger SR9c and Taurus 709 slim

I know Tauras has a bad reputation, but like everything else, there are good ones and bad ones. I have a 709 slim and use it as my edc if not carrying my RIA compact 1911 :mrgreen: . It has been a very dependable gun and is more than accurate for the job intended and is very comfortable to conceal IWB. I know there are a lot of bad stories out there, but if look hard enough, there are stories about every manufacturer, just the way it is, they are a mechanical device and subject to failure.
