Only the new TX22 compact has the 1 - 10 twist. 3.6 inch barrel. 13 round magazines. 16.5 ounces, optic ready.

Saw it at the shot show.

Probably not in stores yet.

My article hasn't been published in AmmoLand yet.

I love my standard TX22, green grip, black top. I changed to a red fiber optic front sight. Very easy. My old eyes love it. It’s like having a red-dot sight out on the end of the slide. Focus on the target, the bright red dot is clear in your view.

I consider it the perfect full-size, striker-fired training pistol. Handles exactly like a Glock, Springfield etc. Same size, same controls, just lighter.

IMHO it’s the PERFECT pistol for a first day at the range breaking in a newbie.

IMHO, the most value-added we Boomers can provide is training newbies in firearms handling and marksmanship. The Taurus TX22 is PERFECT in that role, and holds a full 16 rounds just like a Glock, XD, etc. Give them 100 rounds thru the TX22, then transition them to center-fire calibers. Teach them basic pistol 101 before adding weight, recoil, and blast.

I love my TX22. First Taurus I ever bought, after many strong recommendations. I love it. And comes threaded for a suppressor with a thread protector and adapter as part of the standard package. Very smart.
