Does anyone have any experience with this pistol. I know that some of Taurus's newer guns have been judged by some of you as not too bad. How about this 8-shot in SS and 4inch barrel?
I am looking at recommending something for my non-shooting younger sister, to keep next to the bed and pack when she goes out into the wilds of Utah on Search and Rescue missions for lost hikers and such.
I like the fact that it is SS and it is an 8 shot. This will make for a low maintence weapon and it will give her 2 extra shots.
She is not going to shoot the heck out of this, unless she gets the bug, and it is selling for about half of a comparable *&* or Colt. But if she does shoot it she can practice with 38 Spec and carry .357. That should keep recoil from beating it and her to death.
How is the trigger and can it be smoothed by the local Gunsmith without too much trouble?
Comments or if anyone knows where some evaluations on the net might be they would be appeciated.
Thanks for your assistance.
