Taurus Hand Guns are Good...

Yes or No only, not a detailed answer not like I owned it's great/it get jammed send back twice to facotory etc...No simple yes or No.



So I am first

Yes.
 
Maybe, if you stick with very simple, basic designs - five-shot steel 38s, 7-shot steel 357s, etc.

NO, if you buy stuff that "pushes the envelope" with lightweight materials, small guns for the caliber offered (Tracker in five-shot 44Mag fr'instance) or anything in Titanium, magnesium, plastic, etc. And for God's sake don't buy a Gaucho.

A lot of people are attracted to the "edgy" stuff Taurus builds for the US market. Bad idea.
 
Their Beretta style 9MM pistols seem to be perfectly good guns. The one I had was. I had a revolver that had an insurmountable manufacturing defect in the 80s tho.
 
It’s difficult to define this as a simple yes or no. Not only for Taurus but for any gun or any device.

I own one Taurus, a 5 shot revolver. Have no complaints about it. It’s good.

The entire line? No way can I speak for that as good or bad.
 
I have PT1911 and love it. It was not shooting well when I 1st got it. Sent it back and it shoots great now. Wouldnt trade it for anything.
 
I have a 605 revolver and a PT111 mil pro. Both have been great guns and given good service. I have Smith's and Rugers also so I'm not just a Taurus fanboy.
 
Point? Anyone answering without first hand knowledge is just fueling the whole "Taurus - tastes GREAT / Less filling" debate.
 
Taurus Gaucho is a nice wall-hanger, but a dangerous piece of junk if you intend to shoot it. With enough gunsmithing and aftermarket parts, you can make a good shooter out of it. (that's what I've done with mine, but the barrel still leads badly because of rough bore with tool marks; I should probably "fire lap" it)
 
Centerfire auto's = yes

Revolvers = jury is still out. Just sent mine in for repair! Have seen good, bad amd ugly Taurus revolvers!

"Taurus Hand Guns "can be" Good." Hey, if you got a good one, you're happy.
Just like any manufactuter, you're going to get a lemon every once in a while, Taurus just puts out a non-lemon once in a while.
