taurus 905

Need someone to give me reviews on the 9mm revolver made by Taurus. How do the stellar clips hold up in a pocket? How accurate are they?

I don't have any knowledge of the 905, but you might try the Taurus forum--taurusarmed.net for information on it.

I have had two 905's. I got the second some time after the first thinking I must have missed something. I have neither now and say good riddance. I do quite a bit of work on revolvers and don't recommend any Taurus revolvers any longer. Their semiautos seem to work OK, but their revolvers have some issues from time to time. The most significant issue with the 905 are the flimsy moon clips. They bend easily and all the bullets fall out. They work fine installed. If you don't use the clips the 905 will work but the shell casings are often difficult to extract. The superior 9mm revolver is the discontinued Ruger Speed Six in 9mm, but it is bulky. S&W used to make a 9mm revolver but it is in the collectable stratosphere and one has not passed through my hands.

With the right ammo the 905 is a fire breathing dragon. Look at 9mm ballistics. If you want some real 9mm fun get a Keltec PF9, that little dragon is right snappy.
