Taurus in hot water

[Okie1907]

I think Taurus' troubles started when they went off pattern. "Pattern" Refers to the plans under license they had for S&W K frame and Beretta 9mm clones.

They had that winchester 22 clone as well.

Mac the go back to the 1st page in the thread and there is a link to what is being recalled ..
Taurus problems all seem to be the semi autos.

Had two revolvers and had issues with the cylinder and cylinder advance arm on another. Then again, I had a 38 revolver that worked flawlessly for twenty years and still running good as far as I know (it was part of a trade).

I've never used the newer autos, but my father-in-law has a couple revolvers and an older PT22.

One revolver is an older .357 K-frame (66 or 65?) with a 6" barrel. It shoots pretty good, and he's never had an issue with it. The other is a newer (less than 5 years) .22 LR J-frame size. It had some notchy cycling issues at first, but from last report it has smoothed out. He carries a model 640, I think in .357, and wanted a .22 the same size to practice with.
