Gump Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 (edited) Amazingly enough the Rohrbaugh R380 $1150 and the new Taurus TCP $336 got the best reviews in my opinion. All the other guns jammed a lot. The taurus only twice. The Rohrbaugh never. I don't like taurus but I held this litle gun the other day and it was nice and the 5 lbs., 6 oz trigger pull is very smooth. I think Taurus had someone else make it for them. They should really do a thorough test after several hundred rounds.In the line up were:Kahr P380 $758Kel-Tec P3AT $318MAg. Res. Micro $535NAA gaurdian $449Ruger LCP $364Rohrbaugh R380 $1150SIG P238 $543Taurus TCP $336Walther PK380 $425http://www.americanrifleman.org/ArticlePage.aspx?id=2074&cid=4 Edited January 28, 2010 by Gump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

curby Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Very good article though. i'm in the market for another .380 for the wife and this helped alot. She likes the LCP but i'm aiming towards the taurus. i've owned alot of taurus' and i've never had a problem with any of them. never one jam, and i've fired it alot. had a PT92 from the early 90's i used for target. awesome gun.

Gump Posted January 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 You'll love the trigger pull compared to others. I'm not a Taurus fan but I have high hopes for this little gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FasDuc Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 I carry a SIG P232 as a backup and off duty. Great gun and very light weight with a SS slide and aluminum frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FasDuc Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 Do you have many jams with it?None. FWIW I'm using 95gr Hydro-shock ammo, that's the only round we're allowed to carry in this particular gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
