No big deal, every person has their own philosophy about self defense. Our opinions make no difference as long as we the good guys come out on top.
My opinion of a Taurus was based on my experience with the gun I owned. I just won't take a chance on something that failed on the range when I was using it.
My determining factor was that was my carry gun, and if I would have been pulling it in a self defense situation then I would have lost. Needless to say it didn't inspire confidence in that weapon or manufacturer.
Whatever each of our preferences are, the bottom line is, I want all of the good guys to win when their lives are on the line.
I think every gun manufacturer has had a gun that has fail on the range. So does that mean all guns are bad. I of course would say no. One thing I have to keep in mind is new or used everything made to be sold whether it be a gun, car,TV or anything mechanical was made or designed by a human. So yes everything will fail. One man had a S&W revolver blow in his had does it make S&W a bad choice ... NO.. Rifles have fallen apart does it mean that is a bad company? No again. So to me this is failed logic. The way I see it if I like it and can afford it then it will be mine. I might ask for some input myself but ultimately the final decision falls upon me.I agree 100% that if it fails on the range, why in the world would you trust your life to it. With that said, I tend to drive my trucks, both Chevy and Ford, to near 200K miles and usually don't have any issues. I think it is because I take care of them like I have OCD! I think firearms can be the same, if you get one and don't take care of it properly it doesn't matter if it is a highpoint or an Ed Brown, it will fail at some point. It is very interesting to see both sides of this issue.
