I have had the PT111 G2 as well as the first version (Millenium) and they have both worked flawlessly. I have actually forgotten to clean them in between trips and they've fired flawlessly. Never a jam or misfire. I'd say that for the price point , it is top in its class as far as guns ranging under $250. Its what I keep mounted below my dashboard 24/7/365.
Taurus quality tends to be hit and miss. What people fail to realize is that if you are serious about being proficient with a pistol that the ammo will cost more in the first year than what you pay for a quality gun. Something like this may solve the problem. https://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/product_info.php/products_id/95457/S%26W+10097+M%26P%C2%AE9+PERFORMANCE+CENTER%C2%AE+PORTED
Base your decision on whether or not it works when you get it back would be the prudent thing to do.

I've bought multiple Taurus pistols and all are phenomenal and far better then I expected. Yours sound like its a problem child and I'd trade it. But don't hesitate to buy another, Taurus has been A+ as of late. You have a true anomaly.
