Just remember that while buying a Taurus. You are buying an inferior revolver with a built-in, non-removable gun lock (an elemement of the UNENFORCED SW Agreement). Taurus also tried to force other handgun manufacturers to install it's built-in, non-removable gun lock. How a non-removable, built-in gun lock is pro-gun is beyond me.
Taurus offered their integral system...no attempt to force anyone.
Ol' buddy...your comment was ludicrous, at best...
I've owned several Taurus revolvers...mostly nice, but some problems. Also had problems with colts and S&W's. The only gun I've never had any problems with were Glocks.
My most carried CCW is a Taurus 85 Multialloy. Although I had light strike problems initially, a 3 week trip back to the factory did it right. It's a very reliable little handgun, eminently suitable for concealed carry.
As far as the integral locks...well, you don't have to use 'em, do you? And really...what's the difference between an integral lock (Taurus)...a loaded Chamber indicator (Beretta)...and a manual safety (many others).
You don't like Tauruses...fine...but blasting the reputation of a good manufacturer who publicaly supports RKBA just because...well, for no reason, really...that's pretty ignorant.
