I got the same model for my wife a few months back; have not had time to shoot it. You likee? any comments or advice would be well-recieved.
I know it is only a .22; I figure with the high capacity I will pester the intruder until he gets so irritated he'll just go away.
I had one. It was crap.
The cylinder / barrel gap was uneaven and too tight in places. That combined with it shaving lead caused to to bind, so you had to keep a bronze brush on hand to clean off the lead. When it got a bit dirty, the cartridges wouldn’t seat fully without a lot of pressure, so you got first strike misfires. (to be fair I’ve had this happen with a Smith too)
The rear sight blade is held in with two screws. If they loosen it falls out. Taurus will only sell you the whole rear sight for $45.
Like I said, it was crap.
And if it’s you’re idea of smooth in DA pull, you haven’t fired many good revolvers.
I like it a lot. We took it out to the range last Saturday and blew threw a 525 box of Remington ammo. It shoots really nicely, and is easy for my wife to handle and to clean. She is a novice shooter so I had her using it as single action, but the double-action isn’t too heavy for her to work, either.
