30 years on and PPL still buy that junk?"
Your mispelling of Taurus left out the most important thing ... U. You need to put the U in Taurus and you'd probably change your mind. I doubt you've ever owned or fired a Taurus firearm.
I have, and have had for a nuber of years, quite a few Taurus guns and they all work flawlessly, each and every one of 'em. I have only had a problem with ont Taurus gun and that problem was caused by my misuse/mistreatment of the gun. Taurus repaired that gun for free; their Customer Service rates A+ in my opinion (which is the ONLY opinion that carrys any weight with me).
One of my all time favorite guns is my Taurus PT-1911. It has become my EDC gun.
