Great looking gun, mine only had slight shipping oil on it, nothing like a lot of the other reviewers said. The only issue is one of the mags would not feed had to do some mods to allow it to feed the pistol. Great service and a very good price.

My PT145 DUO-TONE arrived on time as advertised, and of course was factory new in the box. I had previously read reviews about this finish in particular arriving covered in oil. This is an understatement! Please be prepared to do a proper strip ,clean and lube prior to use. The oil the pistol is packed in is not a proper gun oil, merely a storage protectant. There were a few small burrs on the rails, and some machining remnants and shavings, but only a few. The barrel is packed with heavy oil as well. Again, you need to properly go through the gun prior to using it. The guns finish is phenominal, and it certainly does not look like a sub-$400 firearm. Initial firing and function testing proved no failures or malfuntions of any kind in 350 rounds. This was all that was needed to test function on the various cartridges that this gun will see. For me this will not be a range toy. Recoil was modest and predictable. It actually feels less sharp than my full-size Glock 22 in .40, despite being much smaller and lighter. Fires to point of aim, and accuracy is impressive for such a short barrel. Pretty fun to shoot actually. The gun fits well in the hand, and trigger pull is medium-long and smooth. It takes some getting used to, so do the straight-8 sights, but they are both serviceable. The gun works well. This firearm is designed for personal protection, concealability, and utility. It does the job, and still manages 10 + 1 of 45acp. Very potent little package. I would recommend this gun highly. JD

Purchasing experience with Bud's was excellent! Looking forward to many more transactions! In the past six months, I have shot close to a 1,000 rounds and have not had a single FTF/FTE. I have feed the PT-145 with six different brands of ammo, and not a single hiccup. I did have to send the pistol back to the manufacture to replace the spring assembly, and the springs in the magazines. I shipped the pistol out on a Thursday and it was returned the following Monday! Took it to the range and shot 200 rounds with no malfunctions! This gun is a beast, and is now my CCW!

I got a dud. I sent it back to Taurus 5 times before they agreed to replace the gun. The replacement gun has been 100%. Only 250 rnds on it so far, but it has been perfect. The first one was a disaster, but Taurus paid for shipping and did everything they had to to make it right. I am giving it 5 stars because of the performance and capabilities of the new gun. Find a gun that holds 10+1 in .45 ACP and is equal in size. I have tried, and the only guns that come close are about $1K. It is so much fun to shoot that I burned through a whole box of ammo without even noticing. The wide grip that houses the double stack magazine also distributes recoil. I know a lot of people fear the .45 because they think it kicks like a mule, but it does not. This gun has less felt recoil than my 1911 that weighs close to twice as much. Probably because of the wide grip. I replaced my sights with Williams Fire Sights. I prefer them to the "straight 8" sights from the factory. I understand the cali approved guns come with 3 dots. Its been a long battle, but this is my current carry gun. Yes, I trust it.

Typical good service from Buds Guns has worked flawless with only 1 FTF in 100 rounds. Great carry gun. Finish is good. Prices from Buds are great but without the ability to check the fit and finish you are basically taking a chance. I got luck y but have read many a review that the finish or fit was not as it should be and you are at the mercy of the manufacturer to get it right.

I was a Taurus fan until I bought this gun. Feed/jamming issues right out of the box. Excessive wear on internal mechanisms after 100 rounds. I returned to Taurus - excellent customer service, but when returned, no better performance. I have already traded this gun at a loss, would not recommend.

Gun looks great! Smallest, concealable .45 I have seen. i love the gun i have put a 100 rounds through it both hollow point and target rounds and not one problem fits perfect in the back of my pants in the in the pants holster by holsterpros.

Gun looks great! Smallest, concealable .45 I have seen that holds 10 in the magazine. My only issue is, I am having trouble hitting the target. Might be due to the Heinie sight. My brother-in-law has the exact same gun but with the traditional 3 dot and I shoot his much more accurately. Still need to sandbag it though, cause it does appear the sights can be adjusted. But all in all, for what I bought it for, a CC weapon, it is a great gun at a great price.

This gun is the best investment I've ever made...which I'll explain in a minute. The gun itself is probably the worst weaponized excretion I've ever had the displeasure of shooting. Yes it's a great caliber in a small package but it had too many flaws to name...but I will certainly give it the ol' college try. 1. The gun arrived at my FFL in it's case, the gun itself was MARINADING in oil wrapped in a plastic bag and it was FILTHY. 2. Once I got it out to a range I was even more disappointed. I attempted to cock the gun and when I released the slide, the round would not feed into the chamber. I cleared the round and chambered the next round. 3. The last round with both magazines would "stovepipe" using the Winchester white box and I had heard that this particular gun does not like cheap ammo. So I tried Remington Golden Sabers, not exactly a cheap round, and had the same problems of FTF/FTE. This gun is basically a very expensive rock, although you might actually be better off concealing a slingshot and a good little piece of gravel from the driveway. Now, it was the best investment I've made because I was able to trade it for a Glock 22. However, that said, bud's did an excellent job on shipping it to me quickly, in fact I've recently made another purchase (Taurus 1911) and they had it shipped out that day.

Very happy with this gun. It is such a small package with an amazing punch! I was using Gold Dot 200+P ammo and was having numerous feed jams. I switched to Golden Saber 230 gr. and have not had a problem since! All in all a great cc weapon!

Great size and price in a powerful caliber. If only it could have fired one complete magazine without a malfunction. Sold it at a loss. Taurus has been making this long enough to have the bugs worked out.

It is a great looking and feeling gun. Fits my hand nice and has a controled recoil. Haven't put much amo through it yet. Like the DA/SA triger. Great price!

This pistol is an excellent choice for anyone wanting to carry a 45CAL pistol as their CC weapon. You can't beat 10+1 45ACP in such a small package. Its a pleasure to shoot, for a sub-compact pistol the recoil is very manageable. In addition this pistol is very accurate. I LOVE THIS PISTOL!

Bud's is amazing and so is this gun. Once again Bud's came through with a price no one could beat and the service to match. The Duo-Tone makes this gun look stunning, it conceals well, and is a blast to shoot. I wanted the Millennium Pro as my primary carry and I couldn't be more happy. 45 ACP 10 + 1 in a comfortable carry package, simply awesome. I did put a Pachmayr Slip-On grip (Model 3) on it and now it looks even sweeter! Taurus also has a limited and lifetime warranty on the gun so you can't go wrong. If you are looking for a 45 cal. for concealed carry, this pistol will be VERY hard to beat.

Excellent piece with an exceptional finish. Already have approx. 350 rounds through the gun with only one failure to fire as the result of accidentally hitting the mag release. This gun is of optimal size and caliber for concealed carry.

I bought one two days ago and it jam up on me 6 times so I took it back where I bought they told me its a spring that needs fixing so they are shipping it out to the manufactors,but I will say this ,at a 100 yrds this gun is execllect,I shot it for the frist time at a target and I like head shot right between the eyes and then at 75yrds right in the heart area so folks what ever you hear about this gun is foolish the gun is great!!!!!!! thankyou Taurus.

this weapon is beautiful and great to handle. excellent for close range shooting but not so accurate for shooting over 20 yards. but you probably wont ever shoot it passed 5 feet anyhow. this is a great deal.
