Taurus curve, Anyone own one?

[johnwilliamson062]

So, it has been on the shelf for some time now, and I have to ask if anyone will admit to owning one. I figured someone would have bought one just to try it out by now. Will anyone make an admission of guilt?

No admission of guilt, but I have condled one a couple of times. I LIKE the IDEA of the Vurve, but I found my finger doesn't fit easily in the trigger guard. Clearly a chick gun. If my finger fit, then yes, I would confess....

I saw one on a shelf at a LGS. I asked the owner if she had sold any yet. No, but she was thankful that she only order 2.

Maybe if Taurus marketed to more of the concealed carry interested public by producing a left-handed mirror image the Curves would sell better.

I can't imagine doing a quick reload with a curved magazine and not screwing it up fairly often. But that's just me.

My kid bought one. He likes it. I tried it and cant find a lot of fault with the gun (except looks).

I took it to my ladies firearms class for them to try. It met with favor for those who tried it.

It is designed for right hand shooters. For close range (3 yards) it works quite well. It comes with a built in laser and light. But the conventional sights lack something, like conventional sights.

But for its intended purpose I think it works quite well.

Kraig,
Did it seem to universally fit their hip better? Were there people it did not fit? Holsters?

I think it was curved just enough to make it more comportable

Like salsa everyone finds palatable...

I picked one up at SHOT 2015, found it as comfortable as a flaming brick covered in broken glass.

The magazine is not curved.
