Taurus 24/7 OSS

[Guest HHB]

I came across one of these and I really like the way it looks and feels in hand but I cant find very many decent reviews on them. Most of the reviews is just Taurus bashing. Is there anyone on here that owns one or has shot one that can give me some feedback.

I've had one for about 18 months, in 9mm. I love it. Great trigger.

I did have a problem with it sticking open once. Sent it back to Taurus and they replaced.

Personally, I like Taurus firearms. I've had a PT-145, and a PT-111, as well as their Beretta 92 clone. They all functioned well, and appeared to be well made. I've always wanted one of those 24/7 OSS pistols. If you have access to a good deal, why not give it a try?

Perhaps you've already seen this... http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/handguns/45568-taurus-owners-i-have-question.html

My personal experience is limited to my PT145, which I really like. I've had it for about 5 years, 800-ish rounds, no problems.

I already have a PT111 that I like very much so I have no issues with Taurus. I think I may pass up the 24/7 right now and go with the PT145.

Have you checked out the PT 845? American Rifleman did a write up in there latest mag on the 738, 740, and 809. The 845 I have is very accurate and great shooting.

I think I will pass up on the 24/7 for now and go with the PT-145 instead. So now I would like to know the scoop from the 145 owners. I own a 111, so I like the Mil Pro line but I just want to know if there is any major things I should know.

The 24/7 compact and PT145 are essentially the same gun. AFAIK, the differences are cosmetic. You want to look for a 3rd generation (I think) PT145, which is easily identified by the presence of the accessory rail. Prior versions had frame cracking issues.
