This pistol is everything I could ever have expected from a full size 1911. Out of the box it chewed through 50 rounds of cheap Blazer ammo with dead on accurate sights. Not one single fail to anything... no failures here! I was ringing a an 18" square steel plate gong over and over at 50 paces. The trigger has NO SLOP and is crisp... very low poundage to pull it... nice clean break. It's just a fabulous gun and not just because it's under $600 either. No... like the ad says, it is a gun that other's will be measured against. It kind of makes me wonder why so many others are charging twice as much for their guns with the same features.
Of course Bud's was a pleasure to deal with as always... gun showed up at the FFL in two days. Thanks Bud's.

Hesitant to buy gun due to some bad reviews, however i did. Awesome service from Buds! I received gun 2 days after my order date! Went and shot 100 rounds through it with no issues at all! Very pleased with this 1911!

Every time I go out an shoot this pistol I am more impressed! This thing is a nail driver right out of the box and seems like it (or maybe its me) gets better with time and more rounds through it! I have put more than 2000 rounds downrange since buying this pistol and can count on one hand the number of misfeeds/ftes/ftfs with a wide variety of ammo, both factory and reloads...this little workhorse just keeps on plugging! If you are in the market for a 1911 that doesn't need anything extra, this is the one! The only mod I have made is to replace the stock grips with Pachmeyers for a better grip.

i took the chance only because of the lay-a-way option. i paid it off in about 2 months then sent it i went to my FFL to pick it up inspected it then took it home to clean it up for the next day of shooting. put 100rds through it no problems works great love the 1911's this is my first 1911 n for the price cant beat it. i would go with the stainless if its still 10$ cheaper lol i purchased mine for 538.00 n and stainless was 6 something (i was not trying to spend more then 600 for everything, would be pissed now tho cuz its like a 100less then what i would of paid) overall awesome gun i love and will never trade or sell it thanks buds n more importantly thanks for the best birthday present ever babe ;)

I Bought this 1911 because of all the good reviews. well maybe i just got a bad egg. took my gun out first day didnt even get one magazine through it. The shells were coming back and hitting me in the face. took it apart again and noticed the ejector was not fitted properly and had broke. i then noticed that the extractor wasnt seated properly as well. it wouldnt even hold a shell in place. dont know if these issues caused the next but on the last round fired the slide wouldnt even stay open. this isnt my first 1911 i have owned many including remington r1 kimber custom II and a rock island GI. for the money i would just get a remington R1 over this Taurus. you get what you pay for. I got rid of this pistol within a week.
Reason for 2 stars is because one buds did an awesome job getting this to me quickly and two the finish on it is really good.

For the money, this is a great gun... lots of extras, functions great, shoots great! The only thing I don't
Like about it is the locking hammer mechanism... no need for that .. Buds shipped very quickly and I was pleased with their customer service.. I give this Taurus five stars! This Taurus isn't a Colt or Kimber.. But its not too bad either.
