Oh, you just opened a can of worms, here come the Taurus haters!
You will always find people who like and dislike certain firearms or firearms manufacturers, but Taurus seems more divided than most. I don't own one but judging from the people who usually chime in on this subject, you can get a good one or one that is prone to problems.
The people who get the former love theirs, the people who get the latter have some serious horror stories about customer service.
The people who I personally know that own them (2), like them and have had no problems, but they are older models.
