I know there are alot of Taurus bashers out there. This was my first pistol purchase and i'm more than pleased with it. Little over 200 rounds thru it an not a single problem no FTF FTE nothing. And that was using anykind of ammo I put in it. JHP, FMJ and it even cycles the CCI ShotShell. For the money it is one of the best firearms you could buy.
