Taurus PT-111

[Guest Irish_Red]

Has anybody else had any trouble with this gun?

I have one works great shoots very good.

My friend bought one because i had talked highly of mine took it out the day after he bought it shot once and then would not work so he too it back to the store and they sent it off to Taurus for free.

Did he clean it before shooting. Taurus tends to pack the insides with a lot of cosmoline and gunks the works up. I have a PT-145 with about 1000 rds through it so far with no hicups.

I have got them all Pt145, Pt 140, Pt111 I have shoot well over 2000 rolling in each of them...

[Guest Irish_Red]

yes it was stripped and cleaned very good.

I have probably 1000 rounds through my PT-111 and I have never had any major problems with it. I had a couple jams the first time or two that I shot it, but after that its been perfect.

My wife picked out a PT111 without shooting it first and hates it. The size is perfect. The weight is perfect. The fit is perfect. But, the trigger creeps a mile before it breaks.

Feeds perfect and shoots 100% reliable though.

Did you sell it? I have someone looking for a used one..

the one I had worked flawlessly (except with +P ammo. mine was not rated for the +P). I put 1000's of rounds thru it over the years I owned it. I traded it to a frind for a ruger P-95 because he needed a carry gun. Had it been anybody else but my best friend I would NOT have gotten rid of it.

I got one over a week or so old and we been testing a guy reloads in it and We have well over 4ooo rounds .... Still shooting just fine....

[Guest dkirby]

it shot once and then would not work

Might want to make sure the safety is off.

I kid, I kid.

I had on of the first millennium pro pt-111's (bad choice) it was garbage! With less than 1K rounds down the pipe the 2 pins in front and behind the trigger came out at the range. A buddy had the same basic thing in .45 and the lever that you remove to take the slide off came off while shooting.I sent mine back to the factory and as soon as i got it back i sold it. my buddy still has his and hates it.

All I can say about the is good... I have the one in a 380,9mm,40, and a 45.. It's all I want.....

No, have not sold it... She changes her mind more than I change underwear. I'm sure she would let it go if a reasonable offer came down the pike... (Wink, Wink...Nudge, Nudge)
