What is the WORST gun you've ever owned???
Rich B:
I'll jump in with some Taurus hate -
I had a 24/7 Pro 9mm that was reliable for about a year and fed all types of factory ammo. After that, I started getting light strikes. Sold it and bought a CZ SP-01.
WarHorse1961:
I had a Raven .25 Auto. It fit in a pocket just fine and it was actually pretty reliable. But...
I had to hold it "just right". I could only wrap my middle finger around the grip, with my ring and pink fingers beneath the grip. If I tried holding it with my middle and ring fingers, when the slide cycled, it would open up a gash on my thumb like you wouldn't believe.

ROTF I have one of those in my vault right now!
I worry about the safety on these, it just does not seem to be all that ... uhhh .... safe. Pretty wimpy from what I can see. But not to worry, you gotta be a mule to actually pull the trigger. Get to be every bit of 15 pounds trigger pull on mine.

Don't have mine anymore. I'm pretty thick headed. I sold it for $20 after it cut me the 3rd time. ;D
Poor Man:
Hi Chris Z : I purchased a NEW Taurus PT111 Ti, The model with a tungsten slide. After just a short time the magazine latch broke and would not hold a mag. in place. I called taurus, with absolutely no reply, found the name of the CEO and wrote him a certified letter return receipt requested. He received the letter, no reply. I then made photogrphs of the firearm with serial no. and model no. and once again described the problem, even showed the vacant mag. release slot and sent these certified mail. After two more mailings I gave up. I'm a retired tool and die maker, have my own small machine shop, so, I made a release button.
You may guess that I'll NEVER,NEVER own another Taurus. Poor Man
