Taurus 1911

[davedolli]

I have 2 Taurus Pt 1911s, a blue one and a stainless. I have had excellent luck with both. They both feed and function with no problems. I also think they are a great deal for the money.

I have one in 9mm I use for Steel Challenge, no issues to report after 500 rounds.

Brag on your gun and it will develop issues. I had many, many light strikes today while shooting bowling pins.. Quick search on the internet and this seem to be common. Looks like I may need to replace the pin or the spring.

I do not have a Taurus 1911 but have owned (2) 24/7 Tactical in .45 ACP. They both ran very well.

I've got a PT-1911 and three of my brothers also have them. All have been trouble free from day one. Not top shelf, but it doesn't cost like top shelf either.

A friend recently bought a blue one, no rail, we put 200 rounds through it without a hiccup. The trigger on his was perfect no slack, movement or take up.

Can beat them for the money

I gotta say, the Ruger SR1911 is a MUCH nicer 1911 for a very comparable or less price.

I love mine. The finish does suck but the gun runs very well! Will eat any kinda ammo you feed it as well!

I've had a PT1911 Stainless since 2008 and have put ~ 4000 rounds through the gun. Great gun, and would recommend it to others.

I bought a used Taurus 1911 in 9mm last year because I found it for a great price. Reliability has been good with FMJ loads but the gun shoots about 6" low at 15 yds. Accuracy also left a lot to be desired. I have since installed a match bushing which tightened up the front of the barrel which improved the accuracy but the fit of the rear of the barrel is still pretty sloppy.

Bottom line, I'm not disapointed for the price I paid ($350) but I wouldn't want to pay anymore for one.
