Taurus has had iffy quality control in the past
By The Numbers
Accuracy
Not a nail-driver, but it does what it is supposed to do.
Reliability
Range day opened with one forgivable hiccup. But after that? Perfection.
Customization
Has a little rail and takes Glock sights. However, there’s now the G3C TORO version that is optics ready.
Ergonomics
Controls are in the right place. Great grip. Sits low in the hand and feels good.

FINAL VERDICT
"The Taurus G3C offers a dependable CCW for self-defense...and it's even better when it's within your budget. The G3C also gives users an upgraded experience over the older G2C. Controls feel good, and it's fairly accurate. Is this a top-tier pistol? No, but if you're looking for the best bang for your buck, it's perfect." - Johnny B.
