The Taurus "curve" designed to be discrete enough to fit in your pocket like a phone

Kinda cool. Not for me but thought it was interesting to share![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/Iconcheers.gif)

It's been mentioned before:
Taurus Curve
And my thoughts:
Taurus Curve
And my thoughts:
quote:
Here are some issues I can foresee:
1. The DOA hammer-fired mechanism will probably be quite heavy and stagy. The shape of the trigger and the direction of travel also looks whacky.
2. I HATE the idea of a company advocating that people clip this to their belt lines WITHOUT using a holster that covers the trigger. That is dangerous and very irresponsible. I like that they are encouraging CC but suggesting Mexican carry is idiotic.
3. There are zero sights. Not even the little notches the LCP has.
4. I imagine the 2 LED "light" will not have good brightness. Then again, this is just an educated guess.
5. I wonder how well a Taurus-quality laser will be at maintaining zero. Then again, this is also an educated guess.
6. The cutout of the magazine is surely going to pinch the shite out of some palms. I can almost guarantee it just by looking at it.
A full Bapple test would be necessary for me to go further.

My mistake. Didn't start venturing this way until late December

For sure. I won't bust your balls like the OT would. This place is much different.

IDK why, but this board hates Taurus brand guns. I own one, and it is a great pistol. It goes boom every time I pull the trigger. I usually buy/trade 2-3 pistols a year, and I have never had a problem with a Taurus. Much better than Rugar, IMO.

If I was going to carry a 380 it would be a Kahr, Kel Tec or one of the other more reputable brands and put it in one of these.

You want a holster that covers the trigger, not that.

I bought two Taurus pistols before moving to this board. They both have well over 500 rounds without a single misfire. I think they've improved their product in the past decade.

If you mean Ruger, then slow your roll. Lets not get carried away.

Well, if I ever bought 2-3 of 'em I'd try to trade 'em, too.

Of course all my gun-carrying friends understand that friends don't let friends carry Tauri.
I never tried a Rugar. You sure that's not spelled Roux-Gar.
