Answer: depends what it is for.
IMO if you are going to the range with it a tuarus is fine, but if it is to carry as CCW, I would get another brand

7: 45 pm | | I would like to take exception with Jeep Pros advise on the Taurus 1911. I started the Police Academy with a 4 inch Taurus .38 in 1980. Thru the years I moved to the 4 inch .357 then the 9mm. I traded my Sig .45 for a Taurus 1911 in 09.( I dont like Sig Mags) I have always found the Taurus Weapons to be of fine quality and extremely dependable. A 2 inch .38 Taurus Snubbie saved my big rear in 82. and took out the bad guy very effectively. Today Most Cops carry a Glock .40( I do when working for one Agency) I own them in 9mm ( 17 ).40 Cal ( 22 )and.45( 21 ) I also have a kimber .45 which is a fine weapon.As well as a Springfield .45 ( also a fine weapon) However I have staked my Life on a Taurus in the past and have NEVER had a malfunction or mis-fire. Is it a good range gun...Certainly. But it is also an OUTSTANDING and dependable weapon for Duty or self defense.
If I ever get short of cash I promise you the Kimber or the Springfield would go before ANY of the Tauruses. By the way I still do my In-Service with ..guess what... A Taurus. I consistantly shoot above 92. I will never shoot better that that in any case.Just my personal choice of
course.
Food for thought though. The weapon is only as good as its handler.
Happy New Year.
