Taurus

So, what’s the right height for an autoloading pocket pistol? Based on my top five picks, anywhere from 3.7 to 4.25 inches.

Taurus USA announced last week that it is opening up a new facility in Bainbridge, Georgia, bringing along with it 300 new jobs!  

Taurus has come on with a vengeance in revolvers this year. The 692 is a full-sized revolver in .357 Magnum and .38 Special. Big deal, you say! Every .357 revolver also shoots .38 Special. That isn’t what we meant by multiple calibers. With one press of a button, the cylinder is removable, and in its place? Taurus has provided a 9mm cylinder. One wheelgun = three calibers. Now, we’re talking.

Building on the success of the Taurus Raging Bull, this year we were treated to a new revolver built for the hunting market. The Raging Hunter, with all the features a handgun hunter needs.

World-famous hunter Fred Eichler was on hand to fill us in on the details. Fitting, since he had a hand in the development. You can also find a video of Fred harvesting an antelope with a Taurus Tracker in 357 Magnum, at 133 yards. It is always nice to have an expert end user involved in the development of a new gun.

We know, it can be tough to get thrilled about a new AR these days. It seems like everybody and their uncle makes one, in every configuration and at every price point possible. So, why should we care about a new AR on the market? Because it is from Taurus, and first impressions seem to show that the company put some serious thought into what the AR consumer market wants today, and how to deliver it for a good price.

The Taurus Judge was a controversial handgun when it was presented, and remains so today to a degree. But even the most skeptical nay-sayers raised at least one eyebrow and the notion of a fairly small revolver that could fire .45 Colt and .410 shotshells in whatever order or manner the owner saw fit.

In the crowded market of sub-compact 9mm pistols, the Taurus PT 111 Millennium G2 stands apart with an impressive list of features and very attractive retail price.

Polymer mouse guns aren’t for everyone. Some of us prefer a more substantial .380–but they’re getting to be rather scarce. Here’s one you should consider if you ever come across one used. The Taurus Pt-58.

The 85 is a rock-solid revolver, but Taurus has added something special to this one. The hammer spur can be removed with a simple twist. Now the classic wheel gun can be easily converted into an even better option for concealed carry.
