Thank you.

I am absolutely loving this gun.

We had a new gun store/indoor shooting range open up about 10 minutes from where we live. (How convenient!) Heading there again in a few minutes.

I've had no problems of any kind with this Taurus. However, we've been fighting feeding problems with my wife's new Sig P290RS. (Go figure. That gun cost 2-1/2x what mine did and it's ammo picky.)

Gonna try some different types of ammo in hers and then practice with my new found friend!

Here’s what I would recommend for the feeding problem. Sigs have much tighter tolerances that does a Taurus. So try this

Shoot 50 FMJ rounds. Clean the gun.
Shoot 50 more FMJ rounds. Clean the gun.
Shoot 50 more FMJ rounds. Clean the gun. Lubricate it well according to the manual.

Then put 100 FMJ rounds through it. Clean and lubricate it again.

I’ll bet that takes care of the problem. If not send it in under warranty.

Good luck to you.
