Maybe mine is a fluke, but even so its fault is a bad one. Let me begin by saying that I was raised with firearms, and have enjoyed the shooting sports throughout my entire life. Until I purchased this weapon, I had never encountered a gun which I considered unsafe to handle. The weapon that I received appeared to be of quality manufacture, and was shipped and transferred in a very reasonable time frame. However, upon taking the pistol to the range to try it out, I discovered that it could be discharged VIA THE DE-COCKER!!! Yes, the weapon fired, repeatedly I might add, by simply over-extending THE SAFETY!!! Taurus customer service was a joke, and the individual I spoke with knew nothing about firearms, nor did he/she seem interested in reporting the serious flaw discovered in the product I was sold. Trying to have the weapon repaired was such a pain that I finally gave up... I'm not paying shipping for something that wasn't my fault. Now I'm stuck with a dangerous piece of junk that anyone in their right mind wouldn't even think of selling in its current condition

Maybe (hopefully) this is not the case with your pistol, if you decide to get one; if I were you, I would check it out.

Bottom line: I was tempted by the price, I'm out a few hundred bucks, and I will NEVER buy from Taurus or its subsidiaries EVER AGAIN!

My opinion: Buy something made in the U.S.A., by Americans; oddly, I never seem to have trouble with products meeting those two criteria.
