Gregs, move to the US and you can have the real thing
Good looking gun Alex. I hope you enjoy it (I'm sure you will). Like you said, the great thing about a 22 is that it's super cheap to plink with. I feel bad for the 45 guys right about now

It's not my top reason to move to the US, I'll admit, but it's an interesting bonus. Originally Posted by Quick Orange

I am reminded of the (paraphrased) words of Mr Miyagi: "Just remember, gun never replace eye, ear, and brain."
Nice looking gun though Alex.

Very pretty, but in 22LR it would be difficult for me to imagine a better gun than a S&W Model 41.

$1,300 (S&W) vs. almost $400 (Taurus) with most likely marginal accuracy difference? I'm not trying to win competitions here. Not yet. Plus Taurus' warranty just cant be beat. I mentioned I was also checking out the Smith 617 which came in at almost $700. Everyone I could find who knew of/shot both guns said the Smith was no where near being a $300-better gun. I'm happy with my choice so far lol. Originally Posted by Pearlcaster

Ya got that right. I was barely able to find three 50-round bricks when this whole ammo shortage started rearing it's ugly head. I haven't had the money to buy anymore even if I do see them. Thank gawd ball works in .45s pretty good because I ain't got money for hollow points right now. It's insane.
