Anyone own one of these? I like the idea that the S&W will fire the
.45 ACP. The Taurus, from what I
see, is limited to the .45 Colt, as far as .45 caliber goes.

Anyone? Who knows, maybe those damn pythons will work their way up here!


Just a comment:

A major gun dealership in my area states unequivocally on their
website that they will *not* stock or sell handguns made by Taurus
citing poor quality, almost non-existent customer service and having
had major issues with the company.

Taurus is a Brazilian gun manufacturing company.
