GLOCK OR TAURUS

[SirBannedAlot]

Track records speak for themselves, so Taurus made a gun that actually works. That does not mean I am uneducated. I just know for a fact, that other gun manufacturers reputations for making a better product are unparralled compared to Taurus. You bet your life on a Taurus G2 if you like, I will spend my money on a better weapon with a longstanding reputation for reliability.

My main carry gun is a Glock 43x. But I have a G2 and have owned several and they are great guns. You are uneducated in this gun, clearly.

Let’s be honest, how many of us are gonna actually have to shoot someone in self defense? Of the thousand or so members here, how many? 1? Maybe?

The odds are strongly against it. The G2 has a very good track record, for years now, whatever prejudices you have from older Taurus guns, isn’t warranted here. I have several Taurus wheelguns and have for years. No issues. My friend growing up, had a Taurus .357 and a PT92. No issues and he still shoots them today, 30 years later.

They have had some lemons. The G2 isn’t on of them. Lots of people trust them, for good reason.

A lot of carry guns will see occasional range trips for practice. Most of us are realistic enough to know that our carry gun won’t need to see a 20k round torture test or some Red Dawn scenario... the G2 is more than up to the task.

I've never been a big Glock fan. To me they simply do not have a great feel to them. I have had a Taurus G2 that I have as a vehicle gun, and it has great ergonomics as well as a price point that won't upset me too much, if it gets stolen. Taurus gets bad-mouthed a lot, but I have never had one issue with the G2 after owning it for several years.

Having said all that, buy what you like not what people tell you to buy.

I hear you talking, but why do police officers not carry them if they are so great. I also don't think any militaries all over the world trust Taurus.

I feel the same way about glocks. The ergos suck most of the time. However, I would suggest you try the new 45, 43X and 48. The single stack grips rally make them fit the hand and not feel like you are awkwardly holding a 2x4...

I just don't trust Taurus no matter what model it is. That still does not make me uneducated.

Because Glock gets the contracts.

We are not talking about all Taurus models. The G2 is a great pistol. Your prejudice doesn’t change that.

It does when you say it’s crap and it isn’t. You either don’t know what you are talking about, or you are lying, which is it?

 

[aragorn1]

Well there must be a lot of people that disagree with you because Glock has been selling thier pistols by the Truckloads for a long time.

I love my Taurus wheelguns. I also love my glocks. I love me g2 while we're at it. I think I just love guns.

Neither an educated man just does not trust his life to a Taurus!!!!!
