Taurus TX 22 Range Report

[Timmy59]

There is a company or 2 that makes mag extensions, iirc you can bring them up to 21 rounds.

 

[Timmy59]

You really do.

I always told people before if they want a .22lr semi auto handgun that they can’t go wrong with a Glock 44. I’m now going to tell them to buy a Taurus TX22 though.. I honestly may buy another one if I happen to be in a store that has one at a good price. I got this one at a steal though thanks to a fellow OSA member that was willing to part with it.

I can’t speak highly of Taurus on anything else; but this model they most definitely got something right.

The TX also comes threaded .

I'm curious to know how the polymer magazines hold up over time.

So far so good, not knowing if their manufactured with a UV additive I'd not let them tan for long periods.

Are those polymer Mags? (I've never had a Glock....)



I had a chance to fondle one at Academy last night. I knew they were light weight, but it still surprised me at just how light it was when i picked it up. (Academy has them on sale btw.)

Glock mags are polymer over metal.

 

[OK Corgi Rancher]

Glock mags are polymer over metal.

Pretty sure the Gen 1 Glock mags were not metal lined like the later ones.

Been shooting one of these just like yours (with a Thunder Beast 22 Takedown suppressor) for a couple of years now. It's my favorite fun shooter, and is hell on armadillos and the like. I don't have close neighbors, but also don't particularly want to draw a lot of attention with centerfires. The TX22 is accurate, quiet, light, fits my hand like a glove, and simply does not break. To boot, the TB suppressor (which ironically cost more than the pistol) cleans up quickly and easily using a small industrial ultrasonic cleaner, and even fits in the Taurus plastic clip-on holster while mounted. The TX22 is my only Taurus, but It's a definite winner.

Didn’t even realize that until now lol

You are correct.I’ve owned a couple.Normally they wouldn’t drop free when fully loaded.

Adapter included. .

 

[Mr.Glock]

One question if I may.

Will the Taurus feed, shoot, eject and fully cycle any ammo you run in it?
