Bought a new toy yesterday
 

Taurus PT145 Millennium Pro. The magazine holds 10 rounds of 45 ACP. 2 magazines, 3.25� barrel and it�s just about the same size as my S&W Bodyguard. $403.00 total price including tax and transfer. Now I have to buy a couple more thousand rounds of .45 and a new holster (and maybe a Laser sight)!!!

The guy with the most toys in the end, wins !

Re: Bought a new toy yesterday
 

And they're the right toys, that's why you win.... And if that's the case, my money's on MM being one of the last one's standing.

Nice pick-up, MM. Looks like you got a good deal.

Re: Bought a new toy yesterday
 

No the guy with the best shot wins and has the most toys in the end

Re: Bought a new toy yesterday
 

In the begining, you got your shots in your end.

Cool beans! I was waiting for a range report.

Re: Bought a new toy yesterday
 

Somewhere, JJ Shortstroke is shaking his head about now.

Re: Bought a new toy yesterday
 

Not sure of yours....my father had an early one.....you could half engage the safety and still fire....busting the safety off, who knows if the gun would still function if this happened.

No reason for an external safety on a DAO pistol......

We were not impressed with the design. But in terms of size and feel...fantastic. Taurus came out with a revision....but the old design we are stuck with it.....we may simply remove this "safety" feature.....kind of sucks on our end.

Re: Bought a new toy yesterday
 

The style and size are great...and other than the safety lever issue on my dads...great pistol....really nothing like it in terms of size and capacity. Fits folks with big paws very well.

A compact 45ACP is a lot of firepower. 45ACP +P is 525 ft lbs of energy in a 185grain JHP....that is 357 Mag country....with 10+1 thats like having 2 x 6 shot 357 mag revolvers!!!!!

45ACP +P, 357 Mag, 44 Special, Full Power 45 Colt....these are my #1 choice in manstoppers.....they are all about equal and all very powerful...but managable.

I have a 3rd gen 9mm and love it. Some talk down the Taurus but I think they make a good weapon at a good price. Congrats on the new gun.

Re: Bought a new toy yesterday
 

So you think Glocks are junk and you go out and buy a Taurus?? :confused_ma: Good grief mtnman! :wink: Oh well, to each his own.

Congrats and I hope it serves you well.

Oh, btw, did you make it over to the gun show this weekend? The only thing I bought was 2000 small pistol primers and 150 rds. of Guat 5.56.

Re: Bought a new toy yesterday
 

Sorry for OT question but what are they going for per 1000 in your neck of the woods?

Re: Bought a new toy yesterday
 

That sums it up :wink:
Congrats again glad its a keeper

Re: Bought a new toy yesterday
 

They were $5/100, $45/1000 and he let me have 2000 for $80. No tax or shipping or hazmat fees. :wink: Yeah, I know, still too high.

Re: Bought a new toy yesterday
 

I'm really glad to hear that, mtman. I've got a 2nd gen 9mm, well 'nuff said. Enjoy your new toy! :coolbeer:

Re: Bought a new toy yesterday
 

I've had the hardest time finding a shoulder holster for this gun.
Any ideas?

To bad i dont buy weapons that are not made in the u.s.a.

Re: Bought a new toy yesterday
 

That�s too bad for you. This limits you to S&W who sold out the American gun owning public back when Clinton was President. Then there's Bill Ruger of Ruger Firearms who sold out the American gun owning public by siding with the gun ban crowd in trying to ban high capacity magazines.
But then you could buy a Barrett .50 but that�s kinda hard to conceal. Or maybe a Colt, the company that no longer sells to the public. Or maybe North American Arms, a good company but tiny guns. Or Winchester who last time I looked was out of business. Or Remington but they only sell rifles. Or Henry and once again they only sell rifles.

SMACK! OUCH! So sad it's true.:Surrender:

Re: Bought a new toy yesterday
 

I had a Millenium Pro in 9mm and traded the POS as fast as my legs would carry me to the gun show for a Marlin 30-30 instead....

Re: Bought a new toy yesterday
 

Sigs are made in New Hampshire.

Re: Bought a new toy yesterday
 

BMWs are made in South Carolina but that doesn't make it American. Hell, buying "American" doesn't mean sheet anymore. Some Fords are made in Mexico.:10_1_19:

Re: Bought a new toy yesterday
 

:ok:...........cool little gun ya got there !
