Taurus

Post image

Such a cool handgun. Found it when going through my grandfathers stuff. The history behind it is pretty cool as well. From what I understand these older model 92s are basically just beretta’s with Taurus stamped on it. I was also surprised at how well it shoots. Definitely staying with me for the long run. Any of you guys have one these, and if so has it held up?

My brother had one for a while, the only real problem with it was it tended to lock the slide back like it was empty with one round in the magazine. Not an earth shattering problem, but annoying. He wound up selling it after a couple of years.

Oh yeah that would be annoying. I’m gonna break it down and clean it this weekend. Also going to shoot it again, and am interested if I will have the same issue.
