Third purchase from Bud's .... typical Taurus quality... finish was rough and trigger was gritty and about 9000 pounds. I opened the sideplate up Breakfree CLP'd all the internals over my bathtub and watch a couple of metal shavings fall out . Then I put in some snap caps and dry fired it exactly 500 times. Took it to the range and what a difference! Shoots straight and would have anyways but trigger is still 7 pounds but much easier and SMOOTHER so it's not such a pain. Taurus are good for the mony just remeber to clean up the internals and snap cap dry fire it a bunch to break it in you'll like it a lot better. This replaced my 709 slim as my ccw as I already reload for .38 :) I am very happy with the gun and as always Bud's. You buy a Taurus for the fact it will go bang and has ok accuracy you buy a smith for it's looks and smoothness and yes I own 3 smith revolvers but this gets a scratch and I don't care lol.
