First time ordering from Buds, ordered Monday evening my FFL dealer had it thursday picked it up sat shot it Sunday. Buds communication was awesome as they sent me emails for every step of the process. A++++ for that.

As I expected the gun was emerged in this gui-lubricant inside of a plastic bag. I had to do a deep cleaning which wasnt too bad, i actually enjoy cleaning my handguns. The first thing i noticed about the pistol is how nice looking it is. feels great in my hand, some weight to it but feels balanced. took it to the range put 150 rounds of the cheap federal ammo found at walmart for 10 bucks/50 rounds. ZERO problems, shot really well and accurate. The recoil is not bad at all. The slider is very smooth compared to my PK380 and my friend's ruger P89. Really easy to field strip to clean etc. This guns looks and feels soooo good i can't get over that. It shoots very very well too.

I am extremly picky so i did find two things wrong with it. Ii have to get used to the play of the trigger once the hammer is pulled back. feels like you have to pull forever to find the spot where the hammer goes. the trigger has a long pull then at the very very end it gets a bit hard then the hammer goes. I don't know if it will change once i break it in but that's not a biggie i can get used to it.

the other issues is the mag. OMFG it's almost impossible to put all 17 rounds in the magazine. My fingers were sore from putting all 17 rounds into the mag after 150 rounds. The springs are so god damn HARD! they do include a fast loader but I can't get it to work smoothly.

Anyways, if you can get by those two little things, get it. for 344 i dont think you can find a better 9mm. TRUST ME i spent over a month trying pretty much all major manufacturers.

I will do a quick video review just search for "taurus pt 809" in youtube in a week or two.!
