![]() The trigger is comfortable, but it has the longest pull of a single action trigger I’ve found. While small, I like the contrast between the front and the rear sight, which makes sight tracking easy. I’m not going to make smiley faces in a B-27 target, but I’m going to have no issues shutting one down in their vital zones. Accuracy-wise you can land center mass shots into a target at 25 yards. It takes time to get behind them and get used to them. The metal sights are robust but feel a little on the small side. The Grip Panels are quite nice (Travis Pike for TTAG) The G3c’s grip texture never let the gun slide or glide while I was getting after it. I appreciate an excellent aggressive grip, and while shooting in Florida’s summer, my hands get sweaty. With stouter +P stuff, you’ll feel it, but the Taurus G3c is still plenty easy to handle. Recoil is comparable to most small semi-automatics, and that means it’s very controllable. Once lead meets steel, we learn what the G3c is all about. To quote Donnie Brasco, you can ‘forget about it.’ Hitting the Range I’ve been toting the G3c in a Hybrid MT2 from Crossbreed and the weapon is incredibly comfortable for daily carry. If one wanted to nitpick the G3c, they could, but this pistol is not a challenge to carry. I feel spoiled by my SIG P365, and its thinner, lighter nature. The gun is a little on the chunky side at 1.2 inches wide. This Crossbreed Hybrid MT2 is a fine holster to carry the G3c. The G3c has a 3.2-inch barrel, which makes the gun a little shorter than the G26. The G3c is a little taller due to its bigger grip, which’s fine with me (I have big hands). ![]() The difference between the two is on the back end. The Taurus G3c is a bit bigger than a GLOCK G26 but weighs practically the same. If I were swapping sights, I’d just grab a new front sight, preferably something with a high visibility insert. That’s pretty freaking handy when you consider how massive the GLOCK aftermarket is. TRUGLO has been changing some of their GLOCK sights to reflect that they are now also G3c compatible. Speaking of GLOCK, the G3c might not take GLOCK mags, but the pistol will take GLOCK sights. On top of that, the sights are made of metal, a feat that GLOCK has yet accomplished on their guns. It’s a simple setup that I’ve come to prefer over time. The front sight is a simple white dot front sight. The rear sight is all black and serrated to reduce reflection. On top to the gun, you’ll seem some very nice sights, at least for a value brand gun. I never noticed an issue with any trigger dingus, but I’ve seen this referenced enough in other forums that some apparently do. That makes it more comfortable when hitting those higher round counts in a long range session. For one, the trigger dingus is much broader. #Taurus g3 9mm pistol review manualYou still get a manual frame safety as well as a trigger safety.ĭespite the similarities with the G2c, a lot about the G3c has changed. The grip texture is broken up into six panels, and that texture is exceptionally aggressive. The G3c still features a Picatinny rail that accommodates the smallest of pistol lights and, better yet, training devices like the MantisX. Kinda small, kinda chunky, like me at 12 (Travis Pike for TTAG) ![]() The G3c comes with a surprising three magazines, which is a lovely touch and one I appreciate. #Taurus g3 9mm pistol review for freeThe standard Taurus magazines hold 12 rounds for free states and ten rounds for less-free states. I confirmed this myself using a P226 mag from Mec-Gar. The magazines the G3c uses are the same as the G2c, and that means compatibility with SIG P226 magazines as well. There is no decocker to place the weapon in double-action mode manually. Unlike most striker-fired guns, the G3c offers a restrike option should a round fail to ignite after the first try. ![]() This is a single action gun that will revert to double-action-only if single action fails to fire a projectile. I hesitate to describe the Taurus G3c as a DA/SA gun, but that’s pretty close to the reality. These features include a odd, but handy trigger design. Most of the design stays the same and incorporates many features that made the G2c appealing, including the low price tag. The G3c is primarily a facelift to the popular, budget-friendly G2c. It’s both the compact variant of the Taurus G3 and the successor to the Taurus G2c. The Taurus G3c is the latest subcompact handgun from Taurus. ![]()
