Impulse Buying Taurus - Rampy - 09-12-2025

Yep, purchased a 2.5” Taurus 44 special revolver, did it on line & got $60 off using the stores website so I’ll wait till it arrives 

Also ordered a Galco holster & ammo pouches

And 500rds 200gr TMJ and 100rds 200gr FMJ 


Don’t tell the wife please, she is going to skin me alive 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I didn’t know Taurus made a 44 special again.

I currently have 3” L and N frame smiths in 4 special.

I have one of the older MilleniumPro .45s. Never an issue and decent enough gun. I remember it being recalled and all the bs associated with that. I kept mine. I also have their .38 Ulta-Lite which stays in the bed with me.

With the muzzle blast alone.

Does it have a pinned ejector star like their 357's do? That is one quality feature I would like to see back on S+W and Ruger revolvers.

I have sold a metric shit ton of Taurus handguns over the years. Starting in about 1988. Back then they were pretty much Saturday Night Specials, a rung above Phoenix. But they were solid guns that used S&W information and technology. They weren't S&W's by any stretch but they were 1/3rd the cost. I've owned a few of them over the years and can't complain as they just work. Still, they aren't S&W grade but they are good enough.

I have two Taurus handguns and both have served me well for many years! PT1911 and Raging Bull .44 mag. I want to get a .357 or .44 snubbie someday.
