Customer Comments & Questions
Customer Reviews
This Taurus revolver met all my expectations. Fit and finish were very good and DA trigger was reasonable and not gritty. But my Taurus Tracker .44 mag was also like that. Taurus revolvers are generally quite good for the money. And before anyone sneers at that statement at least they never malfunctioned like my new S&W 642 did after 20 rounds. Just would light one off so back to Smith. It seems a sliver of metal came off internally and prevented the hammer hitting the firing pin! Never happened to any of my Taurus revolvers, I have to point out. So if you get this six-gun you should like it. The VZ grips make it look cool IMHO.
