I'm thinking of buying the taurus pt111 g2 for my mom's concealed carry as a birthday gift. What are your thoughts on the gun?

>taurus

What appealed to me the most was the price, safeties, size and basically most of the good stuff people say about it on youtube. You guys got anything else to add that I need to know?
>>
>>34552648
people on this board will shit all over it for being cheap but there is nothing wrong with this gun
>>
>>34552648
For 50 bucks more than a hipoint it's not bad. But I wouldn't trust it until you've put some rounds down the pipe, 100 break in 100 test, with 40 of that being the defensive ammo you want use.
>>
>>34552656
Ive braced myself for the hate because of the price
>>
>>34552672
My whole family will take part in the breaking in. We all need to know how all of our guns handle. So no worries there
>>
>>34552655
Its a ripoff of a SW shield. Shields are $300 rn. Is your mother's life worth less than $300? If you hate your mother buy her a taurus.

No it's not. It's a double stack that's roughly the same size.
>>
Worst brand of manufacturer.
I've had countless customers where the gun breaks their first time shooting it or it doesn't cycle or whatever. Would never buy taurus
>>
>>34552648
its a really good gun
>>
>>34552786
I swear on my life I'd rather have less rounds out of a smith.
>>
>>34552863
I've had no problems with mine.
>>
>>34552648
I heard great things and bad things about the PT111. If you do buy just be prepared for getting a dud, and put at least 200 rounds through it as soon as you can to establish reliability.
>>
OP here, just gonna say that the country where im from, the taurus is 500 usd and the Sw shield is 1000 usd. Yes I know, were not as free as america
>>
>>34552648
You can get several pistols in that price range now that won't shit the bed. It's one of their better pistols but make sure she can use the slide if she has weak hand strength. If that's a problem look at something like a Witness.
>>
>>34552877
I don't give a fuck about you or your experience blowing stress cracks into your taurus after 1 box of whitebox.
>inb4 NUH UH I SHOT OVER 10,000,000 ROUNDS WITHOUT A MALF...
Its your funeral.
>>
>>34552927
ok
>>
>>34552901
Where? That sounds like hell.
>>
>>34552942
Philippines.
>>
>>34552951
...good luck to you. Get a couple of them.
>>
>>34552951
Wew lad.

IDK what the average person there earns but $500 for a pt111 is ridiculous in the US. I hope ammo isn't marked up that badly too.
>>
>>34552951
get a commander size 1911
>>
>>34552974
1Usd would get ya about 5-6 rounds of 9mm (3.5/5) quality here in PH

You have horrible taste in handguns.
>>
>>34552951
Get a Rock Island
>>
>>34553020
So about $10 for a box of 50? That's the normal price in the US.
>>
>>34552648

do you hate your mom ? if so get the taurus

otherwise get her a ruger sr9c - this gun will work great have great factory support if needed and an awesome trigger
>>
>>34552648
You might get one that works. You might also get a lemon. Pretty 50/50. I've sent a bunch back to taurus and they're backlogged a few months because of all the shit qc they have.
