Years ago, during the range part of one of my SDA classes a married couple both were using the Taurus copies of the little Beretta 21s. Both guns broke before the couple finished shooting the fifty rounds. I'm sure Taurus is better than that now.I bought a G2c and a G3 and a G3c, have since sold them, but only because I replaced them with Caniks. Probably 1500 rds between all of them, not one issue. Never knew a Taurus semi auto worth a damn outside of that except their Beretta copies.
