I've owned and carried many firearms. I picked up the Taurus PT 111 G2 the other day as a gun I could just "mistreat" so to speak. Something I could shoot often but not worry about it getting banged up, etc. as much as I care about my Glocks or CZ.
That said, holy cow I love the thing and carry it often. Actually, at this point I carry it more than anything else. Probably close to 2K rounds through it, no misfire, no failed ejections, no malfunctions of any sort.
I've seen it as low as $190 after mail-in rebates so definitely something to consider if you want a firearm with money left for ammunition. Honestly never enjoyed previous Taurus products, but the PT111 G2 is their game changer.
